I've noticed that ace sexuality is handled more gently than most issuefic I've read.
Soapbox warning: I loathe and detest 99.9999% of all "abuse survivor" stories I've read because they tend to be so HORRIBLY over the top, before even getting to "sex can be wonderful, SEE?" as a significant portion of the plotlines.
So, acefic fills a need for comfort-without-sexuality, or a voice for ambivalence about our American-oversexualized-culture, or just as a totally different LOOK at sexuality in general.
