How many of you are asexual? I feel like a significant portion of CC is.
I've never been in a relationship as I've rejected any guy who has asked me out, so I don't think I know for sure. I think my distrust of men has led to me feeling this way. The only guys I'm able to be attracted to and consider crushes are guys I don't talk to.
Can anyone relate?

>>36860I am aro&ace. I always loved anime boys growing up, and always found myself fantasizing about romantic relationships, but as soon as someone said they were attracted/interested in me, I found myself in disgust or turned off? Like please leave me alone…I couldn't understand why I was like this until my then best friend (I was 18) told me, hey, you might be aro/ace. I consider myself to be specifically lithromatic and lithsexual.

aexuality doesn´t exist, is made up tumblr cope, not a real thing.

>>36946>made up tumblr copeAVEN was founded in 2001. I don’t see why people like you get pissy when people with low/zero sex drives choose to label themselves as asexual. It hurts no one.
Anonymous 36962
>>36946It does exist, not all asexuals are even Tumblr generation. Some asexuals think completely differently about sex, they don't have just a low libido but they don't understand whether a situation is sexual at all. I think about sex exactly like when I was a child, don't understand when someone is flirting with me or how men think. I think that sex is silly and it makes me giggle and getting naked is stupid in front of others. When people have sex they are basically digesting food at the same time and it turns into shit. I never realize which men are flirting with me, even when they get naked because I have met some hippies that just walk around naked and it is nothing sexual. I didn't realize that in movies people had actual intercourse, because it was not shown on the screen. I thought this way when I was 25. Now over 30. In my case I'm also probably autistic, so that's it.
But even when you consider teens who may be late bloomers calling themselves asexual then it is still understandable because sex is forced on young people everywhere. It is completely normal to be 15 and think that sex is gross and kissing is yucky but you have to hide it to be popular. Adults talk to teens as if they were tropes from a bad book, assuming very stereotypical things and don't listen when you say you don't like drinking, smoking, partying or boys. Or even when you think typical teen things are extremely stupid. So it is obvious that teens look for communities where they can be accepted for what they are and where they don't have to pretend they like sex. Even if they will like it later.

That's not how sexuality works. Your personal distaste for the guys who've asked you out doesn't determine what you're capable of being attracted to.
Stuff like this is not as easy as it seems, so I don't know what to tell you, other than try some explicit material and see where that takes you.
Anonymous 37418
>>37038No, it is possible to be biologically not that hormonal. Extremes exist in evolution. For instance, some people fuck anything, some people want the gender that wouldn't help them to produce babies, some have problems getting an erection and so on. It isn't anything that weird that some people don't want to have sex then.
Also, asexuality is defined as lack of sexual attraction for people, not that you don't want to masturbate.

>>37037 asexualitiy as an identity and sexuality is not a real thing. You are just another normal ass person that doesn`t have a huge libido. You didn`t mention a single thing that is not a common normal ass person`s trait.
And it gets really dumb when they start with the "i`m asexual but asexuals have sex too! and get romantic!" Fuck that, not real, the deeper you validate that crap the more retarded it gets.
>don't understand when someone is flirting with me or how men think.Thats not a sexuality, you are just using some generic trait every other person has and making a label out of it. You are just socially akward beta girl, don`t cope with made up terminology.

>>37426Asexuals are not attracted to people and they don't get aroused by people. "People" is the key here (or animals, just to exclude zoophiles). Everything else doesn't matter, they can have sex, but this is only physical, there is no attraction involved.
For instance, if a man can get off by fucking a hole in the wall it doesn't mean he is attracted to walls. He won't see walls sexually, doesn't feel any attraction, ejection happens just as a result of mechanical activity.
For some asexuals it is the same way. Others won't have sex ever.
Being romantic has nothing to do with sex or sexuality.
>You didn`t mention a single thing that is not a common normal ass person`s trait.Asexuals are normal too. But most sexual people understand sex differently than they did before puberty. Many asexuals don't. Nothing in their brain related to sex changed during puberty. They still think that naked people are funny/boring/cold and kissing scenes are boring/slimy or whatever they thought as children. It is not the same as having sexual interests but being to shy or picky. They don't recognize sexual situations not because they are bad reading other people's minds but sex isn't a real thing for them. Part of the brain that interprets sexual cues and also social context related to it (like jealousy, monogamy, sex as a sin, shame, sluttiness, etc) is completely missing.
For instance, most people think that certain makeup and dresses sexualize children. I don't see it that way because I see only shapes, whether that specific color or dress suits that child. I don't like child pageants because they are tacky and adults force them on children, not because children dress too sexy. I just don't see anything else but shapes and colors.

Asexuality is an orientation, it is not the same as being frigid or having a low libido. Avoiding having sex is the smallest problem for asexuals, the daily life is meant for people thinking sexually after puberty. They have to navigate in this sexual world. Defining asexuality is important because of this and also for people themselves to recognize they are asexual, instead of trying out all kinds or sexualities and genders and forcing themselves to have sex.

Just like heterosexuality isn't about low libido for the same gender, asexuality isn't either. They both lack attraction, not just libido against certain gender (or both).

I'm not asexual, but I can easily imagine how someone might be biologically unable to be attracted to other people and that there is likely a spectrum between complete asexuality and hypersexuality. It's not hard to imagine how one's sexuality or lack thereof might be determined to some extent by both innate biology and environmental factors, and that as a «new» niche and historically ignored group asexual people have created an easy-to-don identity that hangers-on will use to stand out even if they don't really feel that way. I have no way of telling who is «legitimately asexual», so I'll just judge people by who they are instead. And really, it's never too hard to tell the poseurs from the people who really feel that way.

>>37620Homosexuals and heterosexuals have no attraction to one gender. Asexuals have no attraction to both genders. If you agree that lack of interest in the opposite gender is not just low libido then asexuality isn't just about libido either.
It has nothing to do with politics. It is important for people to understand their sexual orientation, instead of forcing themselves to have sex or even worse, getting married, having children and needing to stay married and provide for their husband sexually because couldn't raise the children on their own.

My past experience with people who oppose sexuality are people who can only think about is sex and or squeezing out as many babies as possible. Kind of like how I think the more homophobic someone is the more they are in denial of being gay.
I do agree that the tumblr movement ruined ace, trans and gay movements making a ridiculous pitty fight. Making the terms seem more like a joke and something to tack on to seem more special. But it didn't stop there.
I don't find being ace a cope for incels, if anything they seem to be the ones more oppose to it. Yes some aces have trauma, doesn't mean all of them do. But like everything there isn't one set rules on how it should be. For example just because your straight doesn't mean you have to find every man attractive. Asexual may or may not find people attractive. Some may have sex for the sake of their partner. But I don't think aces enjoy sex or feel much pleasure.

What do you want from life? I think I might be both asexual and schizoid. I never had a crush (real or fictional), never found anybody attractive, I don't enjoy anybody's company and I don't ever feel lonely. I was always content, but now its beginning to feel like the world is built in its entirety for someone else.
My goal was always to find a job I could do remotely, buy some land and a house and live a pretty simple life spending time on my hobbies.
With the current state of the world that feels outright impossible. My savings are shrinking instead of growing. Getting a reasonable loan is impossible on my income. I could easily acheive what I want if I shared my expenses (and life) with someone but I'm not sure its worth the price.

for all of human history, we have recognized that some people are very interested in having sex and others not so much. It's literally just a personal preference.

i forced myself to have sex with multiple people in hopes of fixing myself, felt less than other people, wondered about having medical conditions and feared that i could never find someone that would be okay with dating me.
knowing about asexuality can save a lot of stress and painful experiences for someone who feels different and wrong because of it.

i'm not even asexual but having had a sexual dysfunction i sympathize. one of the main critiques i see of asexuality especially from lgbt people is that they've never gone through sexuality-based oppression and while on many levels that's definitely true, anyone who isn't even downright asexual but has simply had low libido or sexual dysfunctions can testify to how socially isolating these experiences are and how sex is literally everywhere and if you for some reason don't want or can't partake in it, or even don't want to simply hear about it, well good luck! lol
it's not that people shouldn't talk about sex, in fact i believe sex has to be talked about even more than it is for multiple reasons, it's just genuinely frustrating for some people because it's indeed a sensitive topic for so many yet they have no choice but to live in a world obsessed with it.
and lack of sexual activity or sexual desire is stigmatized. just an example, the word "prude". or how virginity while valued to an extent, does become ridiculous to the eyes of people after a while, and tbh it was never praised between teens, everyone knows there is peer pressure to lose it even among girls. at least, that was my experience.
asexuality definitely would have had a similar fate to homosexuality and bisexuality in terms of social exclusion, and it is very much frowned upon, atm it's completely justified for lgbt people to shit on asexuals and they're seen as the next weird thing who should be silent about it.
the reason it didn't experience the same degree of social issues is because it's by nature less easy to identify, for example you can tell a gay couple on the streets but you can't tell that someone walking around is asexual.
it doesn't mean they still don't experience drawbacks from their orientation and aren't just as presumed to be straight when they're not.

>>36860I used to identify as asexual back when I had some woke friends irl and online. Later I became disillusioned with the queer community and decided they’re attention-seekers obsessed with sexuality, as well as realization how harmful the trans acceptance is.
Even though I never changed that I hate the idea of sex, would never participate in it, would not seek a relationship even if sexless because I don’t need it in my life, I feel people who call themselves asexuals are mostly cringe. And here goes all the snowflakes who think not having sex frequently makes them asexual too. Only shows how our society regressed due to sexualization.
I know only a few genuine asexual people but they don’t make this “orientation” (for me it’s a lack of thereof/lack of sexuality) their whole personality or any major discussion topic. They also happen to have similar interests to mine and are really cool close friends.
I am bitter every time I see ace symbols online because it reminds me stupidity of all these idiots who do nothing for any acceptance of people who wish to have sexless lives. This is a private topic and I don’t see why it should be a pride movement, but if someone happens to know and mocks a person, it’s bad too. Unfortunately the bandwagon orientation crazies don’t help, being so obsessed with their relations to other people that they can’t describe themselves without the mention of sexual preferences or lack of thereof and their twisted pronouns.
Screw the asexual movement and what it became. Why make a flag for it? What’s the point to call it an orientation? Thanks to these idiots and many people I never met personally but were active online, I feel like I wasted some portion of my youth. Screw them all.

>>200717 said also the struggles of ace people isn’t exclusive to asexuals which I think is why lgb people get annoyed at them. But to say that you don’t face any issues is a bit weird but I guess it’s cultural then. People will get nosey when you’re not married and old. It’s really satisfying when you find out there are others like you and you finally put a word to how you feel (or lack of).
On the other hand there’s nothing more cringe then someone saying “excuse me I’m sex repulsed can we not talk about sex” in gay circles, almost as cringe as queer theorists and queer tiktokers redefining the what is means to be gay/lesbian/bisexual.
Is it weird that while I don’t take aromantic people seriously I don’t mind aroace. Demisexuality is just too hyper specific and means nothing especially when “friends falling in love” is seen as the ideal relationship.

Then again, I have a verified Cluster A that lists a lack of sexual attraction as one of the common side effects. I can't speak for anyone else or their reasons. Luckily I also have almost no libido to go with it, otherwise I don't know how I'd cope with wanting to screw all the time but not having any example of who I would participate with. When I was younger, I would get frustrated and try to force myself to like men; when it didn't work, I tried to like women instead but, obviously, neither worked and I gave up. Now I'm just kind of glad I don't have to deal with the same obsessive preoccupation everyone else seem to have over looking for sex.
"Asexual" is just a descriptive term. I didn't know what I was experiencing had a name until I strayed across the term by chance looking through some old feminist material a few decades ago. No interest whatsoever in the strange focus on using one's sexuality (or lack thereof) as an identity and all this flag nonsense; it's shaped some of my life and who I ended up being, but I am me first and my traits second. Never participated in the strange communities and fandoms that seem to have sprouted up around idpol and I have no interest.

in fact, the nona didn't even mention that in her post. she was talking about other things entirely. so that response either embarrassingly missed the point, or it was just some purposefully petty remark that had nothing to do with the topic at hand

Discovering that I'm asexual, more specifically aegosexual, was the best discovery of my life. Unfortunately, I'm still romantically attracted to moid and women. I hope to find a girlfriend one day.

>>Can you be attracted to only fictionally people?Yes, uh. It's under the umbrella of asexuality, it's called "fictosexual". Some people say that this 'sexuality' was created by wanker otaku moids, but I believe it's valid.
It would be something like enjoying playing a game where you stab people, but you would never want to stab people in real life.

I've seen my share of women claiming to be asexual but *-romantic, heterosexual but homoromantic, and a very small number who claim to be homosexual but heteroromantic (I imagine these are mostly coping about coming out of the closet after marriage). But I have not seen many women who claim to be voraciously sexual and totally aromantic.
The issue with that is that the set of actions that constitute romance is socially constructed, but the set of actions that constitute sex are biological. I have a hard time believing that there are so many women who feel a biological imperative to be taken to a movie and hold hands specifically with a man or specifically with another woman because of some deep intense moviegoing instinct versus the number of women who have an intense sexual urge but no movie or touchy impulse. It seems more likely to me that the number of true asexuals is tied to the number of true aromantics, and that 'asexual-but-romantic' likely has a sexuality that is hard to express with a partner (esp. a male) or to see depicted in media (esp. media with any% male audience).

i could never tell if im aro or ace bc i keep switching from liking romance and sexuality to being disgusted by it. figured out a few days ago i might be graysexual which is i think on the asexual spectrum? i dont like labeling bc i still have a lot to learn about myself lol ^_^ but greysexual kinda sounds right to me rn. i could totally live a peaceful life without sex tho, considering the furthest ive ever gone w a guy was fingering lmao but whenever i was sexual with him i dont think it was like a natural urge, more of a "oh okay this is what ppl do so ig im gonna play the socially acceptable role?" thing. my experience w him made me think im not asexual but now in retrospective my thoughts and inner reactions were pretty asexual lol. i did it more bc i wanted the experience (u never know if u never try ig) and not bc i felt the sexual urge yk. still not sure if im grey or completely asexual tho

Statistically, of the 1.66% of asexuals that exist the majority of them are women/AFAB between the ages of 18-27 and most of them are on the spectrum. HealthyGamerGG even talked about how common it is for people with autism/fear of intimacy latch on to sexual or romantic fantasies of fictional characters vs real people. And if you look into the asexual forums and subreddits, it's just a bunch of deranged people lumped together under this incredibly vague umbrella term. Some people legit feel nothing romantically or sexually, others are Cluster Bs, others can't get off unless a woman farts on them, others have never touched grass, and others are just run of the mill women who don't like hook-up culture. This is not a sexuality, this is just weird cope for autistic femcels trying to label normal behaviors. Like, if you have social anxiety and think you're ugly OF COURSE you're not going to feel like fucking. If all the guys around you are fat, immature uggos OF COURSE you're not going to be attracted to them. If you're afraid of intimacy OF COURSE you don't want to date anyone. This goes double if you're ND or have some kind of other issue. HELLO??? It's obvious.

>>200717>t's not that people shouldn't talk about sex, in fact i believe sex has to be talked about even more than it is for multiple reasons, it's just genuinely frustrating for some people because it's indeed a sensitive topic for so many yet they have no choice but to live in a world obsessed with it.This is funny to me because every asexual I've ever seen or met is OBSESSED with sex. One girl I rped with called herself a sex repulsed aroace and had a meltdown because she wanted me to rape her character. The amount of rape-centered whump fics asexuals write in general is insane.

>>36860I’m “asexual.” I put it in quotes here because I fully recognize that my lack of interest for sex almost assuredly has to do with my history of assault and low self esteem. Maybe that just makes me mentally ill. But, however you want to label it, at the end of the day I have no desire for sex and don’t see that changing.
Honestly? It fucking sucks. I’m lonely and feel resigned to be alone for the foreseeable future. Romance seems fun and I would love to be desired and it’d be nice to have a bf but good luck trying to find a moid who genuinely doesn’t care about sex. All of my friends are dating or getting married and I’m starting to be left behind a little bit because I’m the odd one out. Just venting at this point but gosh I wish I was just normal

Something I hate about these labels is that people relate to them and then make it their whole identity instead of trying to work on themselves. Lots of people go through horrible traumas and self esteem issues, but you got to push through it somehow if you want to live a good life. And before someone claims I don’t know what it’s like to have traumas, I grew up with a single mom who was treating her bipolar with cocaine and alcohol. I get it. But giving up isn’t going to make your headspace any better.

I believe that there could be a subset of people with naturally low enough libido/sexual desire to care or seek it out; but I feel this group is also likely smaller than the amount of self-proclaimed asexuals.
I think a lot of the latter group are some combo of bad experiences/trauma making one averse to sex, an over-corrective response to an overtly sexualized society, or some other indicator of poor health (med side effects, bad diet, little exercise, toxic environments, etc.)
Anonymous 269885
I'm in a weird position where I'm not exactly "asexual" by definition, I still experience sexual attraction, but I dislike sex and I don't seek it out. It was never pleasurable to me, I always found it irritating if anything and disassociated the entire time. I can get myself off fine though.

When I meet someone new, I never think about anything sexually related to a person, even if they're attractive. Even months in knowing someone, I don't even want to know if they have ever had sex. I don't want them to talk to me about their sex lives. I just don't want to hear it. As far as I am concerned everyone is asexual.

>>276166That’s most people unless you’re dating them. You have to by a hypersexual lunatic (or male) to look at the general public or a friend and think fleeting sexual thoughts about them. Every single asexual I know is chronically horny. They read ‘spicy’ books and fanfic, they rp sex online, use chatbots, look at horny fan art etc. the only thing is that they are too autistic and awkward to form human relationships with people and even when they do luck out they are too neurotic/low self esteem/medicated to really connect with their partner like that. But this doesn’t make it their sexual orientation, they need social training.

I consider myself "demi-romantic" but asexual.
I was married, I only felt lust over my ex which I loved romantically those times (I still love him but as family since we spent many many years together).
Never felt those feelings that some people talked me about before, lusting over someone out of nowhere just coz they're cute or hot.
I can differentiate attractive people, but is mostly in an "artistic/hegemonic/aesthetic" manner than a sexual one, more like, appreciation of beauty like if you went to see a sculpture in a museum.
I get horny of course, but only a few days before I get my period, but it isn't about anyone but myself, if I do is just thinking about my body and how I'm feeling it, I never felt this necessity that some people claim is a "must" to have sex in daily life or something, the idea even disgusts me.
My thoughts are that there's no need to have sexual intercourse to have a relationship, unless it is discussed, but nothing better than spending time with someone appreciating memories than just having sex.
