-->"Lesbian, femme, nonlibidoist asexual starts a new series of videos on asexuality and her experiences as an ace. Hold on to your brains.''"

''Tales of a Homoromantic Ace'' is an original Web series by a young woman who identifies as [[{{Asexuality}} asexual]]. Each installment is an unscripted (in most cases) list of asexuality-related terminology, story about her experiences an asexual, anecdote about sexual orientation in general, or something of the like. As asexuality is relatively unknown sexual orientation, the purpose behind the series' existence is to educate the Internet masses on asexuality in a way the creator hopes is personal and interesting.

The series can be found on Blip.tv [[http://blip.tv/theasexualitychronicles here]], though it was initially launched on [[YouTube YouTube]].

!!This series/vlog provides and discusses examples of:

* ActingForTwo: Acting for four, actually, in “Sh*t Ignorant People Say to This Particular Asexual”.
* [[{{Angrish}} Angrish]]: Sometimes when she’s really pissed off, she’ll just stutter angrily for a bit.
* {{Asexuality}}: Of course.
* AllWomenArePrudes: Lambasted in “All Women Are Not Demi”.
* BeYourself: Invoked in several videos, particularly “Here’s to a New Year/It Gets Better”.
* BerserkButton: Do NOT tell her asexuality is a disorder, or that she hasn’t met the right person yet. It might be the last thing you ever do.
* BreadEggsBreadedEggs: From the summary of “Thoughts on Jonah Mowry and Kyra”: “Homophobia, asshattery, or homophobic asshattery”.
* BrokenBird: She comes off as this somewhat during her more sad or depressing vlogs.
* BuffySpeak: Sometimes this happens, since her vlogs are unscripted.
* ClusterFBomb: “How I Felt Invisible During Issues in Queer Studies Class”. And how.
* {{Determinator}}: Her attitude toward asexual visibility in the face of ignorance and even hostility.
* EpicRocking: For Valentine’s Day, she wrote a song for her girlfriend that clocks in at 7 minutes 31 seconds.
* ExactlyWhatItSaysOnTheTin: The summary of “Valentine’s Day 2012”.
* FacePalm: She does this often when confronted with things that idiots say about asexuality. Sometimes it's more like "Face-Desk".
* FollowTheLeader: She jumped on the “Sh*t [People] Say” bandwagon with “Sh*t Asexuals Say” and “Sh*t Ignorant People Say to This Particular Asexual”.
* JerkAss: A few of the characters in "Sh*t Ignorant People Say to This Particular Asexual".
* {{Infodump}}: The first two installments. She even [[LampshadeHanging lampshades]] it.
* LipstickLesbian: Actually, she identifies as a “Chapstick Lesbian”.
* MetalHead: She positively adores Otep, and has used Nightwish (power metal) and Three Days Grace (alt-metal/post-grunge) music in other videos.
* MetalScream: She mentions she was a winner of a metal scream contest held on YouTube by Otep.
* NiceHat: She has two spiffy fedoras; a black one and a gray plaid one with sparkles.
* NoNameGiven: The vlogger's name is never revealed.
* PowerTattoo: She has a gorgeous tattoo on her right hip that reads “indomitable spirit”, which was a promise in permanent ink to herself to never cut herself again.
* PrecisionFStrike: The intro to her “It Gets Better” video has a few mild, humorous curses and one Precision F-Strike of “Middle school and high school ''fuckin’ suck''”. And then in the meat of it, we get “[Visibility] isn’t easy. It’s hard. It’s really ''fucking'' hard.”
* QueerRomance: Both she and her girlfriend are homoromantic asexuals.
* SelfBackingVocalist: She does this in her queerness-related filk of the Christmas song “Pat-a-Pan”.
* SerenadeYourLover: She does this as a Valentine’s Day present.
* ShoutOut: To Emilie Autumn, Otep Shamaya and...Elgar?
* TakeThatMe: “We need more... ugly... people doing visibility work!” when referring to herself in “The Construct of the Unassailable Asexual”.
* TooDumbToLive: The character who thinks asexuality means "[not having] junk" in "Sh*t Ignorant People Say to This Particular Asexual".
** Sadly enough, this is actually a ''common'' reaction to asexuality, mostly because the term is only ever used during school education to refer to asexual ''reproduction'', with there being no mention of the orientation.
