What does AAW mean in UNCLASSIFIED

Asexual Awareness Week (AAW) is an annual event that takes place each October to increase knowledge, acceptance and visibility for people who identify as asexual. During this week the asexual community, their allies and those who are still questioning their sexuality come together to celebrate asexuality and to raise awareness about this often misunderstood sexual orientation.

During AAW there are many online events taking place such as virtual discussion panels, webinars, movie nights and more. Additionally, there are also local events held in cities around the world such as art exhibits, film screenings or workshops to help promote greater understanding of asexuality.

Absolutely! Everyone is welcome at any event taking place during AAW whether they are part of the asexual community or simply allies looking to learn more. All that matters is that everyone approach the event with respect for different perspectives and identities.

One of the best ways to get involved in AAW is by attending one of the local events or participating in one of the online offerings. Additionally, you can also support causes related to increasing understanding of asexuality by donating money or volunteering your time and expertise.

There are plenty of resources available both online and offline for learning more about asexuality such as books on exploring sexuality or podcasts featuring interviews with members from within the community. Additionally, websites like AVEN provide discussion forums where people can ask questions or seek advice from peers.
