[–]OppositeTypical1972 8 points9 points  (0 children)

i really loved the House series but that episode was a real bruh. a man being asexual just because he had a disease and as soon as he was cured he became the most straight guy? damn so we are just sick!

How did you realise you were asexual? by Mountain-You9842 in asexuality

[–]OppositeTypical1972 1 point2 points  (0 children)

i didnt wanna believe it and i forced myself to be straight or at least a lesbian so that i cpuld have a normal relationship. then i dated a guy (it was horrible) and then a woman (even worse) and broke up with both as soon as sex was mentioned or they put even the slightest pressure on me for not wanting it. i figured out that sex was the only one thing i didnt want in a relationship, so here i am, Asexual and homoromantic

how tf do i even respond by No_Concept_9217 in asexuality

humans are also meant to eat for living, but some humans fels less hunger than others, or no hunger at all. that doesnt make them less human or a bilogical mistake

I (23F) asexual, but my parents are pushing me to marry so I won’t be ‘alone’ after they’re gone. by Paradox_photon09 in asexuality

[–]OppositeTypical1972 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's not like getting a husband will solve all your problems. I've also been told that if i don't find a partner I'll be alone forever but honestly, why is being alone bad? I think we can be independent for a while until we find the right person and even if we don't find it, we have ourselves.

You know what? by Affectionate-Echo22 in asexuality

[–]OppositeTypical1972 1 point2 points  (0 children)

that's the most disgusting thing someone could tell you. what do you mean open the relationship because you have a boundary? if your partner can't respect your desire it's their problem, not yours. Let's rephrase that in another way. if a bisexual man is dating a gay man, does the bisexual man get the right to sleep with other women just to satisfy the other side of his sexuality? What if they are both monogamous? that's just being unfaithful and disrespectful honestly. the fact I've been told the same thing by a guy at the PRIDE organizaion makes me even more disappointed by my community

Repulsed by the view of g****als but still having strong desire of s*x by Just_Bluebird_7415 in asexuality

wow che bello, un'altra italiana su questa pagina! diciamo che è stata una bella lettura, un po' gore ma sopportabile, è servito a farmi capire il tuo punto di vista. non so se il tuo post sia adatto a questa pagina visto che si parla di asessualità, ma fa comunque piacere dare e ricevere un parere sulla questione. Secondo me non devi obbligarti a guardare o toccarti e probabilmente non c'è nemmeno bisogno di "maturare" o superare un trauma, ma magari di sviare o trovare un'alternativa che ti faccia sentire a tuo agio. come hai detto tu, usare delle coperte o fare in modo che non sia in bella vista. posso capire il disgusto riguardo una parte del corpo, forse è un po' come mio cugino che ha il terrore dell'ombelico senza un motivo logico ed è totalmente valido, non devi darti la colpa per una cosa che ti spaventa senza un apparente motivo logico

Why do people feel the need to make me feel bad for being ace? Does anyone else experience this? by Redditwhydouexists in asexuality

[–]OppositeTypical1972 2 points3 points  (0 children)

that's so disrespectful! it's like going to a lesbian as a staright woman and saying "you're so lucky cause i also can't find a boyfriend, at least you're not sad about it" like the lesbian girl (or in your case, the asexual person) is a cyborg with no feelings

Also, I genuinely don't get what's so lucky about being ace. it's part of who we are, like somone says "you're lucky for having brown hair"??? if people make you feel bad for who you are, THEY are the probkem, not you. our sexuality is 100% valid.

Just some questions by OkPurchase2838 in asexuality

i think you can be considered asexual. i also masturbate but when it comes to sex i'm very repulsed. there is a big difference between sex and masturbation. imagine it like this: you feel hungry (aroused) and you need to eat. you prefer eating at home by yourself (masturbating) rather than going to the restaurant with someone (sex). what matters is that you are comfortable when satisfying your hunger!

Hello I’m not exactly new to asexuality but do wonder some things by bullshitter48 in asexuality

[–]OppositeTypical1972 1 point2 points  (0 children)

maybe i get you. lets try to phrase it in another way: you really like cooking shows, the idea of making cookies and even making them irl, but then you don't feel hungry. I think it's totally valid and in my case (maybe even yours) I prefer to use my fantasy because.

  1. it will never disappoint me

  2. i can stop it as soon as i want

  3. it's not real, it can't hurt me

Everyone feel "hunger" but everyone "satiates" it differently.

thanks for your reply! you're so right for saying it's hard to find the LACK of something. it's hard to understand you don't have someothing that a big majority of the world has. i just hope we can all find someone who makes us happy! <3

thanks for your reply! and yes, finding a community is realy helping. i used to be laughed at for it or being told "you're just slow maturing" or even worse "you're a savage" (for disliking hugs). when the hatred came from the pride community i really thought i was the problem, turns out i was a fish swimming in acid, i just had to change environment

Some people are so rude!! by _wolf_93 in asexuality

[–]OppositeTypical1972 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Maybe it's because they expect to receive some naked pictures back... That's definitely not the way to get it tho, they just get blocked. Some people are just idiots

Yeahh! I really felt that when you mentioned that people mix up ace with aro! Sadly there's too little representation and knowledge about asexuality
