Oh yeah, I only said homoromantic because you said you haven’t ever liked any females, or feminine presenting non-binary people and so I thought homo. I forgot you’re agender though (sorry btw) so I guess androphilia is the correct. July 19, 2020 at 11:59PM

Nope, not my case. I feel extremely repulsed by the idea. I've never done it, mind you, but I definitely don't feel like I even want to just try it. July 19, 2020 at 11:54PM

If you do; I hope you have fun! :) July 19, 2020 at 11:54PM

I think so. :) July 19, 2020 at 11:53PM

So cool! July 19, 2020 at 11:48PM

yes, absolutely. Asexuallity and attraction to one particular gender over others are not mutually exclusive. You can also be aromantic on top of being asexual, but still find a certain gender more aesthetically appealing than others. It's a spectrum. July 19, 2020 at 11:48PM

Of course! Asexuality covers people who have romantic feelings towards men, towards women, both, and etc. I for example am a woman who feels romantic attraction towards men only, I'm a hetero-romantic asexual. You may very well be a homoromantic asexual. July 19, 2020 at 11:44PM

We’re not boring tho, sex is what’s boring 😆 We’re doing interesting fun things instead of weird naked dancing. Totally better. July 19, 2020 at 11:43PM

Yeah, I def get that: Even as an American, personally grew up with the idea AIDS as an "African" disease (which was its own problems but that's a whole other can of noodles) and didn't understand or really even know about the AIDs crisis until I was a teenager. and thats what I mean about Ymmv- is you lived through the AIDS crisis and grew up being told or having it be implied that gay people are predators, then you are MUCH more likely to see what happened to lupin as a reinforcement of those ideas if you are told lycanthropy was intended as a metaphor for AIDS. Because it's then something you're more likely to be hyper aware of because it's something you've had to deal with, one way or another. However, no matter the intent of the writing, I think being blind to a hurtful trope that was BOUND to be prevalent is careless or not well-thought through on the artist's part. She could have easily done more research and been more conscientious, and I

I am sorry to hear this... I hope you’re okay. :( July 19, 2020 at 11:40PM

That’s really cool, thanks for sharing your personal experience. It sounds like it was right for you. But personally I’m not particularly close to my family, so I think I probably won’t be coming out to them. although I am very thankful for your feedback and dialogue on the matter. :) July 19, 2020 at 11:38PM

I don't think I've fallen asleep before 4 AM more than 3 times in a week at any point in the last few years. My depresso music is mostly emo rap, guccihighwaters, SadBoyProlific, YouSane, shinigami, yesterday and Lil Happy Lil Sad, just looking at my playlist. Some Lil Peep and NF in there too. Most of the names are absolute trash, but idk, their music hits me at night. Either depressing lyrics or repetive lyrics/beat to drive away thought and keep me distracted. July 19, 2020 at 11:36PM

My reasons to come out to my parents (and family)? Well, I am an only child from a fairly traditional and conservative family, aside from my mother coming out as asexual recently. I want to be myself, and I don't want my parents to worry if I might get pregnant or anything like that, or expect me to have kids further down the line if I settle down in a relationship with a man. I want them to know who I am. They know I like men. And now they know I don't have sex with anyone by choice, and not a choice like celibacy or abstinence. As an only child, I have a very tight relationship with my parents and I thought they were more than deserving to know this about me. Plus, I don't want to pretend. Coming out as ace was the opposite of awkward for me - it would've been awkward for my parents to guess and assume what I could be doing in my personal life and maybe worry. Not everyone is in my situation though, and this may not be the case for you. Best of luck x July 19,

This sounds so much like me at fifteen. Still does, to an extent, but I've realized I'm actually lesbian and that recognizing a guy as attracted wasn't the same as being attracted to him. Obviously, this does mean you're in the same position -- from what you describe, you could just be straight (heteroromantic, rather) but ace. I still think I'm somewhere on the ace spectrum. The idea of having intercourse with a woman doesn't disgust the way the thought of doing it with a man does, but it doesn't excite me either. In short, sexuality is confusing and doesn't always fit into a neat box you can slap a label on. It can be frustrating to not know what your own feelings are, but you don't need to figure everything out right now. Everything you're feeling is perfectly valid and it's more important to accept that than to ascribe a label. Your identity may change as you grow and learn more about yourself.

Perhaps if you actually read the post you’d understand how saying that is not at all ironic, although it might sound that way. July 19, 2020 at 11:27PM

Seeing them makes me nervous and I want to jump out of my skin. Like there is a friction there that needs to be addressed, resolved, I'm uncomfortable but happy but nervous. Not so with pals. July 19, 2020 at 11:27PM

I mean, yeah July 19, 2020 at 11:25PM

Thank you July 19, 2020 at 11:25PM

My last partner raped me and it left me from a sex-neutral/sex-repulsed little Ace to hypersexual and still sometimes sex-repulsed Ace July 19, 2020 at 11:24PM

My boyfriend and I started dating a few months before the pandemic hit, and we've now been together longer IN the pandemic than out of it. It's weird to think about how most of our relationship has been spent quarantining, avoiding social situations, and battling a constant level of anxiety associated with COVID. On the plus side, one of our biggest differences is the things we do for fun --- he's a lot more introverted than me --- so this has reduced much of our available activities to stuff we can both easily agree on since we have similar taste in TV, board games, and outdoor activities. But then I think about how the need for social distancing is likely to last at least into 2021 and it's bonkers to think about how such a high proportion of our relationship will have been spent in such abnormal times. Anyone else in this position? Curious how others who started their relationships right before the pandemic are feeling. Submitted July 19, 2020 at 11:35PM My
