Hot Pieces of Ace
Hot Pieces of Ace (also known as HPOA) is a collaborative YouTube channel dedicated to fostering discussion and helping the asexual community though videos posted on weekly topics.
According to their YouTube channel description, Hot Pieces of Ace is a youtube collab channel designed to help the Asexual community in any way imaginable.... that can be captured on film. Videos will be posted every weekday about a weekly topic suggested by you (the audience) in order to help those in need of advice, intellectual stimulation, a human voice, and/or another opinion.
Rawrdom (Andi) proposed the idea for a collaborative YouTube channel on March 9, 2010 and a few weeks later there were auditions and votes for who the audience wanted.
After a couple of weeks successfully posting, Andi's parents found out about her asexuality, deleted her AVEN account and refused to allow her onto the internet. Other members fortunately had the details for the YouTube account so even though her videos were taken down, HPOA could still continue.[1]
