Since her name is also missing I'm going to assume it wasn't her.. November 21, 2020 at 12:04AM

headcanons kids as ace ...well, I do headcanon about every fictional character as Ace, so... November 21, 2020 at 12:02AM

Well rings are pretty lit. November 21, 2020 at 12:01AM

No no I suppose I see it, everything's a valid reason for this kind of thing, i think the idea of feeling validated is something that's cool. November 21, 2020 at 12:01AM

For me it's the other way around. I want Cupid to hit me, but he doesn't fucking like me so he doesn't. November 20, 2020 at 11:57PM

Ayyy you're valid November 20, 2020 at 11:55PM

Oh, I love fanfic too! I'm not sex-repulsed at all, so I read plenty of explicit stuff (I identify as an aegosexual ace), and reading different relationship dynamics and even stuff like kink has helped me figure out a lot about feelings, and relationships, and what romantic or sexual attraction might feel like and what kinds of relationships I might want in real life. I generally feel kind of weird about real-people fic, but I was looking through the "asexual character" tag on AO3 and I found this fic called Bloom (BTS) that was actually really relatable to my experience with asexuality. It starts with the main character realizing that his friends are all hooking up with people, and him having been aware that they were all sexual, in theory, but not actually realizing it, and oh boy, I have had that revelation multiple times in college. It's not like I want to be allosexual, or that I feel "broken" or anything, it's just this kind of weird sinking f...

I identified as gay for like 20 years, went to pride every year, &c. When I finally figured out that I was also ace, it just became another part of it for me. As for the ring, well I always liked rings anyway, so it was a good excuse to make another one. November 20, 2020 at 11:47PM

All in favour of legalising the personal ownership of SAM missiles for the purpose of making Cupid fuck off say I November 20, 2020 at 11:47PM

For me, I just get excited to share a part of myself and my identity with others. I like being involved in the community because I feel like I belong. I’m at a point of my life where I’m building and learning about my identity and I want to share it with others so that they know more about me. It’s also feels validating knowing that there are other asexuals out there, I would love to help others feel like they’re not alone. Everyone probably has a different reason for being involved, this is just my opinion. Sorry if it didn’t make any sense. November 20, 2020 at 11:47PM

In the UK, if I remember correctly, a marriage only needs consummation if its man/woman. Man/man and woman/woman marriage has no consummation clause as they couldn't decide how to define sex in same-sex relationships. It could have changed since I last looked it up, though.

That court finally did something good. November 20, 2020 at 11:36PM

The asexual experience is incredibly diverse! Don't worry if you need to qualify yourself because no one person has identical feelings and experiences. If you choose the label, we will welcome you regardless of your experiences. For instance, - Many asexuals have been oblivious to sexual experiences actually occurring around them. They may have thought what they felt (or didn't feel) was normal and did fit in due to the nature of who they associate with. It's great you do not feel broken and are not bothered by others! Society can be hypersexualized to the point were I, a sex-positive ace, am just bothered by the content in social media. - it's okay if you feel uneasy about fitting in. it's a common queer experience to initially reject or hesitate to use a label; it's a new identity that's not discussed that often. I hope your process of realizing your asexuality becomes easier! -Some aces do want to have sex in the future too: for example, fulfill a cur...

why can’t you just say you had sex? like do they have to watch you or smth November 20, 2020 at 11:30PM

I feel the same way about not feeling "broken," and wondering if that meant I wasn't really ace – the way I think about it, everybody starts out asexual, as kids, and then people go through puberty and start experiencing sexual attraction at different points, but that just never happened to me. I did always feel a little different from "stereotypical" teenagers (although I think a lot of people feel that way), but I never felt like it was a problem with me, I just thought that other people were a little weird. By the time I got through high school and college without any desire to hook up with anyone (but with plenty of sexual thoughts, not really considering myself a "prude"), and started to realize that maybe I was missing out on something that most people experienced, I had already learned what asexuality was. So that's when I stopped thinking "well, I'm probably just a really cautious bisexual" and started drifting more towards...

Bruh why would you want that, I would to discuss it first and only have a marriage with a partner who wants the same things as me? November 20, 2020 at 11:20PM

Maybe sex neutral asexual, I'm a sex neutral hetero romantic asexual, I never really thought of anyone sexually either and really don't care if I have a girlfriend or not. I still like feeling loved by the opposite sex but in a nonsexual way. November 20, 2020 at 11:18PM

Guess my nickname during secondary school 🙄 November 20, 2020 at 11:14PM

I'm in the same situation, I'm in texas and recently came out too my friends as ace, I think I'm the only one on my school whose ace. I'm a sex neutral hetero romantic asexual so I'm pretty much straight but I'm a few inches into the asexual side, so I'm a kind of rare type. November 20, 2020 at 11:13PM

Oh man, I think about this all the time. I used to think I was bi, just out of default, because I didn't feel a strong preference for men or women and I thought that maybe my lack of interest in dating was just a strong desire for independence or something. It took a long time to accept that I was "asexual enough" to call myself ace, since I do think about sex a lot and find people aesthetically attractive, I just have no desire to have sex with them. Learning the sub-category "aegosexual" actually really helped, since it outlined that distinction between fantasies / libido and sexual attraction to real people in a way that made sense to me. These days, I just kind of assume that sexual attraction means looking at someone and feeling an impulsive desire to have sex with them. I've looked at people and found their charisma really magnetic, or enjoyed them as eye candy, or thought "well, if I had to have sex with someone, maybe that person wouldn't ...

Hm. Why did someone paint over the character's hair? They missed a bit. I hope it was the original artist otherwise this is troubling... November 20, 2020 at 11:11PM

I relate so much to this lmao November 20, 2020 at 11:11PM
