    Little story time- my friends were explaining sex to my other friend with me (an asexual) next to them, I randomly leave the group because their conversation made me feel nauseous, my friend (let's call her Z) came up to me and asked what was wrong and I explained, and without missing a beat Z goes "I think my spirit animal is elmo, let me explain why..." and this was her attempt at distracting me from the other conversation. Best thing the topic could have changed to in my opinion lmao

    I discovered I was ace a few months ago, and although I'm now confident in myself and my sexuality, I still can't wrap my head around the concept of sexual attraction.
    Like do people ACTUALLY see strangers and want to have sex with them ? How can sexual attraction be more than just experiencing certain physical feelings when you see someone attractive ? (feelings I can only barely imagine myself, as I never experience any kind of physical attraction)
    And you're telling me more than 95% of people feel this way ? I'm so confused... part of me still wants to believe y'all are just exaggerating...

      I'm ace and most of my knowledge/understanding about sex and love comes from movies and books. And I just always assumed that you have some sort of rapport or connection with someone because you find them intersting/intriguing etc and then the next step is sexual feelings because that person has become important to you.

She said: "Oh this is a triumph. The raw sexual energy. Look at this big phallus." I can't even figure out where she saw it.

      I was just baffled that someone was able to see some sexual intention in my work that is entirely invisible to me. To me, there is no nakedness or sexual undertones at all, so it felt absurd in a funny way.
      I made something from the heart and my heart forgot about the sex-thing.
      It does make me happy though, that it sparks joy in her, even if it's happening in a way I didn't intend.
      And it's good to know that this is what some people will see and I am glad that I have words like 'demisexual' to communicate my differing point of view in life.
      In short: When words fail you, make art. And when art miscommunicates your intentions because you forgot that some people might get horny for pictures, use words. ;)

      That's the thing with art, it's out of your control how people see it. Some people may over analyze it, under analyze it, twist it, make fun of it, praise it, see something spectacular in it you never would have considered...
      So I agree with the above commenter. How does it make you feel? Are you satisfied with that feeling? It can hurt to not have that exact feeling shared with others, but one of the most beautiful things your art could achieve is making someone feel anything at all.

      I think that somehow makes sense. If you feel attraction after building an emotional bond then sex is just part of the relationship and not what the relationship is built on. And you can have a strong emotional bond with more than one person and if everyone is on the same page then poly relationship would just be logical.

    I think I accidentally outed myself as asexual to my friends before even knowing that I was. I had just heard about people feeling sexually attracted to others, just by looking at them and it shifted my whole world view, so naturally I wanted to talk about this outlandish discovery. Which was greeted with silence... I think they were too shy to tell me that they too are like that and actually not so weird. Understandable given we were 17-ish.
    Also I wanted to thank whoever uploaded this video, because it helped me to finally be sure of my asexuality. I had been wondering for quite some time and questioned myself at every corner, so this really helped put my mind at ease and just be done with overthinking

    The one tik tok about learning to unlearn that your self worth is defined by your body/s*x really got to me.
    I am an aroace and I have been through very rough experiences with relationships and the whole s*x topic. To be honest I thought I had dealt with it and was okay now, but when a friend and I got really close (platonically on my side for sure) I still felt the need to do something physical. It took me a while to finally get to the core of the issue and the actual reason for my behavior, which really set me off. In my previous experiences with relationships I had learned that I was only interesting to them if it got physical. So here I am now, trying to unlearn this destructive behavior, thinking I was probably the only person dealing with this. Turns out I'm not.
    If you experience something similar please let me tell you: Your worth is not defined by your body or the physical things you can give a person. If someone only wants you for your body and doesn't respect your boundaries they don't really care about you. You are more than a body and if others can't see that, that is their loss not yours.
    Be careful and stay safe ❤️🧡💛💚💙💜🖤

    All through high school I was confused as FUCK because I would end up physically attracted to my close friends at the time, ALL DUDES. So for awhile I was flitting between straight, gay and bi, with no possible explanation. My ex bf and current bestie in the world explained the spectrum and I was SO relieved that I wasn't just like... Completely broken.

    Not all asexuals reject sex. Not feeling sexual attraction does not always mean not wanting sexual activity. For some asexuals, sex may be acceptable and they may enjoy it, for some it is just the pleasure of a partner (but why should it be wrong?), For some only certain sexual activities are acceptable, and for some, cuddling is not allowed. although others may require it. Asexuality is the spectrum and the combination of asexuality and sex repulsivity is misleading.
    But a relationship isn't just about sex, and maybe some of the less sex in their lives would benefit from getting their blood back to their brains. Otherwise, I can't explain the general beliefs (even among asexuals).

    • @TheKarret
      @TheKarret 2 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      From AVEN:
      Asexual: Someone who does not experience _sexual attraction_ or an intrinsic desire to have sexual relationships
      _Sexual attraction:_ Desire to have sexual contact with someone else or to share our sexuality with them. (Note: sexual attraction does not need to be based on appearance, and can also develop gradually over time.)
      If someone has sex for other reasons - to please their partner, to have their own biological child/children, because society pressured them into thinking they needed to have it, to make money, then they don't really get anything out of it, but aren't repulsed enough by it to not engage in it and could live their whole lives without having it and be happy because it's not an internal drive for them, then they are asexual.
      If someone is getting some personal enjoyment from sex, and internally seek it out for their own benefit, they are not ace. With whomever the people are that one regularly engages in sex reflects their sexuality. If some folks just like to be givers or receivers in sexual activities, that is very allo behavior.
      The litmus test is: "In the ideal world, where everything is just as you want it to be, is sex a part of your life?" and if you answer "yes" then you're not ace. If you answer "no" then you are. We don't live in an ideal world, so for many aces who aren't sex-repulsed, it's not possible to never have sex and so they do.... but it's not an internal drive or something they seek out for their own pleasure.

      @@TheKarret If you are allosexual in situation where you don't find anyone sexually attractive (teoretical island without people or like same-sex prison, when you are heterosexual) your sex drive dissapears? Or when you are in club and you are horny but you don't find anyone attractive, can't you just hook up with stranger you are not attacted to? (I couldn't but like because of personality and many other things, but I know there are some people, not necesserly you, that can do that). And maybe sex with someone trusted makes person more satisfied than solo play? Or is more interesting? Also - does experimenting with same sex partner when you are hetero and finding it good-feeling counts as being queer? Or does it just mean you were horny enought and curious enought and trusting enought to feel better than if you did the same thing alone? I can't tell as a hetero person, because I am not one, but my straight friend told me, that once she kissed a girl, when playing drunk game. And she liked it. But like next day she looked at her, not attracted at all. That was like very quick questioning resulting in "still straight", but it doesn't mean she didn't enjoy the kiss. And also, like stated in video - asexuality is a spectrum, so it really depends on person. And also it is hard to isolate reasons for sex. Like sometimes I enjoy more pleasure of my partner and sounds they do than their touch. I love making them feel good. But also I like being touched really often. And also I like how easy it is sometimes to make them turned on, like it's fun for me to be like the one thinking almost clear and seeing them being so not-focused. And I like being close. And like I said I like their touch, but how can I isolate just one thing of that? I don't think so. Like all theese things make it feel good, substracting one would change the whole experience. (That is my preference. Like others can like adrenaline or sth from meeting with stangers, I am more satisfied when I know person, when I trust them and don't feel insecure around them). And again sex attraction is not the same as sex drive. And ace people choosing sex wiith person than solo play can really be just that they are more satisfied when someone else touches them, that doesn't need to be any deeper than that. Also they may not feel comfortable masturbathing (bc for example society or sth), or they can just get bored when alone. List can go on and on. So I wouldn't just say "if you lilke sex you are not ace", because it's far more complicated.

      @@zuzannaczech No, an allo would feel miserable that they don't have anyone to have sex with, I would imagine - allos who can't get dates often pine over it because they don't have access to people willing to date them. Chances are, the allo in that situation would imagine themselves having sex as the best substitute, but being stuck without human contact/those whom they're attracted to [as straight dudes in prison will enter homosexual relationships because they need sex that badly, and when out, return to strictly straight behavior], an allo would make do with whatever is available... _but that's not their IDEAL situation._ If an allo is at a club and wants to have sex, but doesn't find anyone at the club attractive, whomever they decide to just do it with is where their attraction lies - a straight dude who has the option of sleeping with a woman will never "just do it" with another guy because he's not attracted to guys. If you find more satisfaction from sex with another person over solo play and deliberately seek that out as opposed to solo play, that is sexual desire. It would count as being not 100% straight - there's a Kinsey Scale that ranks between straight- and gay-ness and there are accountances for being heteroflexible or homoflexible. Again - if you NEED to sleep with someone else to be fully sexually satisfied, you're not ace.
      My sis is het [possibly demi, but idk], and she wishes she could like women romantically or sexually, but she just can't do it. Also - your friend that you mentioned highlights MY point perfectly - she thought it was fine, but she has no inherent drive to seek that behavior out again; if she never kissed another girl for the rest of her life, she'd be perfectly satisfied with life. She doesn't REGULARLY kiss etc girls and then turn around and claim she's straight and has no attraction to women. If you have an inherent drive to engage in sexual behavior with others, you are not ace.
      Asexuality is a spectrum, but people are being too loose with the definition and having allos in here making aces feel unwelcome and pushing ace people out of ace spaces. Has it ever dawned on you that ALLOSEXUALITY is a spectrum? And some of these folks seem to be better fitted into the allosexuality spectrum than the asexuality spectrum, since asexuality is about a lack of an inherent drive for sexual contact? Have you ever considered one might be aromantic but allosexual? There are other more sensible options than stretching the definition of asexuality so thin that it no longer actually means anything and damn near anyone can identify as ace if they want to. There are LIMITS on what asexuality can be, and sometimes, some folks just don't fit; they have a different experience - it can be a valid experience, but it's NOT an asexual experience to inherently desire sexual contact with people. That's the point people were trying to get across when talking about sexual attraction and sexual desire - and again, like my first messaged clearly demonstrated - AVEN's own terms don't align with the notion that asexual people prefer sexual contact with other people as part of their own inherent desires.
      Do you inherently desire sex with them, or would you be just as satisfied and happy in your relationship if you never had sex for the rest of your life? THAT is what determines if you are asexual or not. If you answer "yes" to the first part, and "no" to the 2nd part, you're not ace. If you answer "no" to the first part and "yes" to the 2nd part, you're ace. It literally is that simple. You can be ace and consent to having sex for your partner's benefit and find things about the activity that you can enjoy, but if you never had sex again, that wouldn't bother you; of your own volition, you would never CHOOSE to have sex as your own idea. THAT is the variation within the ace identity. You can hate sex, or you can see it as a tolerable compromise. But the second you start wanting it for your own personal pleasure and benefit? You're not ace. And that's okay. The main exceptions are demis and graces, but really, demis and graces are more like the bisexuals of allos and aces; they have a unique experience that's not quite allo, but also not quite ace.
      I never said "if you like sex you're not ace" I SAID " if you actively prefer sex with people to solo play to deal with those feelings, and if you would be miserable if you could never have sex again, that would not be asexual." There is a KEY difference there, and if you can't understand that difference, I question whether you understand asexuals at all. Maybe you shouldn't be speaking with any degree of authority; maybe you need to go back and learn more. And not from Tumblr or TikTok or Twitter - from AVEN.
      FYI - The difference is: the _preference_ for sex over solo play. If you have a preference to have sex, you're not ace. You can tolerate it, find things to enjoy about it... but if you have a preference to have sex rather than solo play; if you'd be miserable without sex with other people in your life... then you are not ace. And it's offensive and ace erasure to try to change that fact.
      If you would be 100% content without having sex in your life and you only do it to please your partner and can find things to enjoy about it, then I'm not talking about you, so getting defensive when I state the limits of asexuality, it makes me wonder if you would actually be miserable without sex, which would plant you firmly in the "not ace" category. Hell, even "missing" it would be more on the allosexual spectrum than the asexual one. Do you understand that for allos, sex isn't just about the physicality of it? It's also about all those things you described enjoying when you're having sex with your partner. Allos consider it a near religious experience of ultimate closeness and a bonding with their partner above anything else... that is an allo perspective. NOT an asexual experience at all - even for the ones who are willing to compromise and have sex. For asexuals, sex - for those willing to have it - is like [to be stereotypical] a guy going to watch a rom com with his girlfriend, or a girlfriend watching sports with her boyfriend - something they would never do on their own and don't really care about when they watch those things, but they do it for their partner and for the sake of the relationship. THAT is the ace perception of sex, even the sex-favorable ones. - the sex-unfavorable are disgusted by even the thought and aren't even willing to compromise.
      Asexuality is NOT infinite. There ARE limits on what it accurately describes. At best, you sound demi or grayasexual [again, the bisexuals of allos to aces], but not a totally ace person. I'm sorry people told you wrong and got you thinking inaccurate stuff about asexuals. I'm sorry the boundaries of asexuality are not more clearly defined to help people understand it better. But claiming your experience is an ace experience really is ace erasure. If the public gets your interpretation of asexuality in their head, and I tell a rando I'm ace, instead of assuming I'm not interested, they'll believe they still have a shot with me "because aces can love sex as much as allos," and that REALLY frustrates me, because the only reason I relate to the ace label is because my sexual preference is "nah, I'm good." I read so many stories on AVEN of people who felt broken for not being able to enjoy sex, even when they tried it, they felt nothing from it and didn't want to do it. If that perspective on sex bothers you or feels like it doesn't fit you, then you're not experiencing an ace experience. If you do anything more than tolerate it because it's not too horrible for you, but you aren't really interested in it, I'm sorry, that doesn't sound like an ace experience at all, then. That sounds like a low-libido allo or something. Why should asexuality have SUcH a WiDe SpEcTRuM but allosexuality has only one way to be experienced? Why not consider a slightly unusual allo experience, why does it have to be a practically-breaking-the-definition-of-asexuality experience? Think on that a bit perhaps.

    My colleague was explaining hookup culture to me, like I knew what it was but seeing it from their perspective was pretty illuminating. However as they realised I didn't have much interest in participating they started saying the general bs 'you should just find a random person and try it'. When I tell you how queasy I got... Indescribable.
    I knew I was ace before I even knew it had a name but its only recently I've realised how truly repulsed I actually am. Like, I have the most filthiest mind out there but to put myself in the equation... Just no.
    Just shows that you can always learn something new about yourself.

    This person addressing the issue really just reminded me. One time I was crying because I felt like no one loved me (romanticly) and that I was the final pick. The bottom of the barrel. Being asexual contributed to that because I felt like people wouldn’t love me because I didn’t want to have sex. After watching him address it, it makes me think. The chances of people cheating and breaking up with me are so much higher.

  • @annapatterson2437
    @annapatterson2437 2 ปีที่แล้ว +6

    I've been wondering if I'm on the spectrum. I do experience physical and aesthetic attraction towards women. If there's the right mood or atmosphere (or something), which rarely happens in everyday life, I can experience a fleeting feeling I've assumed is arousal. Those things combined, I thought I experienced sexual attraction. Then, I saw somewhere that sexual attraction is when you look at someone and want to have sex with them, and I was like, "Wait, what, there are people who can look at someone and decide, oh, I wanna have sex with them? I've never done that, even in a relationship!"

    Over the last few months, I've realised quite a bit about my sexuality. I'm not sure yet what kind of -sexual I am since I don't feel sexual attraction ever (but physical attraction and attraction to character). Maybe I've been looking in the wrong spot for a while, so I've recently included women in my dating preferences and I've only had positive experiences from that. So I could possibly still be in that demi-sexual-ish area but on the lesbian side. May take a while to figure that out but I mean it's a start that I've come to realize that I'm most likely some kind of -sexual that doesn't feel sexual attraction. I'm still new to all of those categories, so maybe I already fit in one that I don't know about :D

  • @rzuue
    @rzuue 2 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    "Sex doesn't make us whole"
    Everyone, please fully absorb this. Whether you have sex or not will not define who you are nor change what kind of person you are. It won't fill any holes, it won't create any if it's not there. That's why you don't need to feel any pressure to have your first time, never. Cause you're already whole, you're already a complete, respectable human being with value.
    This doesn't mean you can't feel desire for sex when you're going through a drought, but it's like loving chocolate and not eating any during a diet. Whether you eat it or not, you're still whole, you can still be happy or sad, you're still who you are.

My friend: "What are we going to do?" Me: "Represent the asexul comunity in a sexuality fair." My friend: "Cool!" *spends the next four hours being suportive and pretending she already knew I´m asexual even when she definitly didn´t*. *At the end of the day.* "Do you think (other friend in comon) is also asexual?" Me: "Yep, and probably in the arromantic spectrum too". My friend: "Should I ask her?" Me: "I already did and she say she wasn´t ready to talk about it." My friend: "Oh... She probably is."

      I am an ace who was threatened by a family member that they were going to hire someone to have intercourse with me to "learn s*x is good". Since you feel you are an ace, you are an ace. There is no shame or wrongness in not wanting to have s*x. The key is to find someone who is willing to respect your boundaries and preferences. I'm the type of Ace who finds the idea of physical intercourse disgusting, that doesn't mean I don't love my wife. Some people will never understand asexuality but there are those of us out here who do understand, so you're not alone. Don't let anyone bully you into a situation you are uncomfortable with. Stay safe and have some garlic bread 😁.

    I understand some of it but some of it is so confusing to me, and its to the point that to most people that have met me, consider me the 'innocent friend'..
    the thing is I act like I understand none of it because it makes me uncomfortable to talk about (dont mind other people talking about it around me but it makes me uncomfortable to contribute to that kind of conversation)
    Also I am Aromantic, Asexual, and Agender X
    I have made one decision in my life and that decision was ✨no
    (Agender X is when a person is Agender but still feel a few strings attached to being a female, male, or nonbinary.)
    (The correct term for me would be Agender Girl but I feel more like Agender X since I feel that I am Agender but I also feel a few strings attached to being a female and being male. While the male is barely there its still kind of there. Though if I had to describe it I would describe it as having 100 strings, and 88 of them are Agender, 7 of them female, and 5 of them male. I use all pronouns but much prefer they/them
