posted on 2024-12-04, 21:41 authored by Noah Grant O'Connor
This practice-led research presents the first academic investigation into the Asexual Exile trope as it presents in YA fiction. It takes particular interest in how asexual characters are often Othered as not truly alive, and how these messages rebound in necropolitical cultural understandings of asexual people as expendable.
