Ace Awareness Week
Yasmin wears:
In light of Ace Week (Oct 24 - 30th), we collaborated with model, activist, creator of the #Thisiswhatasexuallookslike hashtag, writer and proud asexual Yasmin Benoit on a shoot that celebrates asexuality, and the empowering experience of wearing lingerie for yourself.
The shoot incorporates the asexual flag (grey and purple) and shows what asexual looks like - not what we typically see represented on television which generally features white, dowdy, and unrelatable characters. We spoke to Yasmin about asexuality, lingerie, and self-empowerment.
What is a common misconception about asexuality that you wish to debunk?

How do you wish asexual people were more included in events such as Pride?

How can brands be more inclusive to asexual people?
