/u/ohmage_resistance on How can I tell that Im asexual or a straight woman who doesnt like men?

If you are not attracted to men, calling yourself asexual (or aromantic, not feeling romantic attraction) makes a lot more sense yourself straight. The "you just haven't met the right person yet" phrase is a pretty common microaggression against asexual and aromantic people. Most straight people don't feel attracted to just one person ever*. You can read more about this here: https://www.asexuality-handbook.com/faq/what-if-i-just-havent-met-the-right-person-yet.html *demisexual/demiromantic or greysexual/greyromantic are cool terms to look into if you want to learn more about the experiences of people who actually only feel attraction to a very small number of people. Both of those are on the asexual/aromantic spectrums, respectively. June 26, 2023 at 11:27PM

/u/JiyuZippo on I heard of the black ring on the right hand to signal to other aces that you're acebut I don't have a black band. Can it be any black ring or does this not count?

Thank you! But I don't dare, I would be way too sad if I bought it but couldn't use it due to my eczema breaking out from the material T-T June 26, 2023 at 11:24PM

/u/BoatRazz on Can asexuals have a fetish?

As a Spankophile (Spanko,) I find a large swath of dyed in the wool Spankos possibly even the majority to be effectively asexual outside of the singular act of spanking, and surrounding kinks, to the point where I assume most Spankos, Spankers and spankees are to at least some degree on the asexual spectrum. Many like myself are romantically and asthetically inclined, just not sexually. June 25, 2023 at 11:14PM

/u/shelbyL15 on how do u feel about the "not masturbating/having sex is bad for health" thing?

Thank you for your detailed reply, I am sexually attracted to them but it’s more the act of sex I am put off by. I will look at someone and be sexually attracted but not want to have sex June 24, 2023 at 10:42PM

/u/tealbot22 on Im unsure if Im asexual 25f

Hey, I'm also 25f and new to accepting this identity myself so may not be the best at giving advice. You said "never ever want to have sex , even if I am completely attracted to the person". I think what's key is, is that an aesthetic attraction or a sexual one? I've had to do a fair bit of reading to get an idea of what allos experience sexual attraction to be. Even then, from this Reddit I've seen some people describe feeling sexual attraction but not being interested in sex with another person, I believe it falls on the asexual spectrum. Certainly I can relate to many of the thoughts and experiences you've had June 24, 2023 at 10:40PM
