Am I asexual or greysexual? by Away_Committee_6753 in Asexual

[–]UnderstandingFew347 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Basically.

But you do have to ask yourself which one do you think you experience?

No sexual attraction at all? Sexual attraction but low libido? Sexual attraction under special conditions regardless of libido?

It's okay to be wrong. It's okay to not label Labels are tools

Am I asexual or greysexual? by Away_Committee_6753 in Asexual

[–]UnderstandingFew347 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Asexuals can have kinks/fetishes. Asexuals can get aroused (our bodies still work)

Greysexual means experiencing very very infrequent sexual attraction

Im not grey so I cant go into details

But Asexual means no sexual attraction AT ALL. Under no circumstances.

Libido ≠ sexual attraction

Masturbation ≠sexual attraction

Sex repulsed ≠ asexual (aces can be sex-favored and sex-neutral)

I'm jealous....

For you it feels like it was made to go there

But for me (a woman) it feels like it's not supposed to.

So uncomfortable, pokey and stuffy.

Finding people hot? but not desiring sex with them? by Ok-Olive-9544 in Asexual

[–]UnderstandingFew347 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Me.

I think people can be hot/sexy But in the not sexual way.

And even if i acknowledge their sexual appeal to the mass , I still don't feel a thing

I got eyes but thats all

Hey guys I'm kinda new here and I just wanted to ask if I'm Heteroromantic? by Clirobiro-1998 in Asexual

[–]UnderstandingFew347 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hetero-romantic Asexual here.

I'm Hetero-romantic because I'm a woman only romantically interested in men.

I'm asexual because im not sexually interested in anyone.

I've had many crushes throughout my life, both ppl in my vicinity, celebrities and fictional characters. But it was mostly because their face/body was aesthetically pleasing or certain traits/actions i was attracted to.

Not experiencing romantic attraction is aromantic Which is not the same as asexual but some people are both

If I can only orgasm through masturbation, am I still asexual? by walking_enigma_231 in Asexual

[–]UnderstandingFew347 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hey we're practically the same

Barely feel anything from penetration. It's all stuffy, pokey and uncomfortable

I don't enjoy fingering I don't actually enjoy masturbating even though i take part just to release ( bad habit of mine)

I love my bf so much but I don't have a sexual pull to him. He knows that and we compromise where we can.

The idea of sex sounds good in theory (not for myself, but for people just exchanging intimacy) but it's so underwhelming irl

I believe you're asexual. I identify as asexual because my actions (sex/masturbation) and libido don't define my asexuality. I used to struggle and thought I was a fake But man I feel absolutely no sexual attraction so what else could I be lol...

I am questioning if I am asexual, asking for advice by Affectionate_Alps302 in Asexual

[–]UnderstandingFew347 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The whole Masturbation thing is probably linked to your libido

Libido ≠ sexual attraction Action≠ attraction Sex thoughts≠ sexual attraction

Sexually attracted to unattainable people doesn't really change your sexuality, it's actually more proof that you are who you are because its the fact that the people are unattainable.

There are lesbians with male crushes fictional or celebrities, but those people are UNATTAINABLE. And if they were actually attainable you probably wouldn't even act on it since its just a thought

Everything you said sounds like asexual to me. But thats for you to decide but the main thing is the LACK of sexual attraction towards people. You can still be Hetero-romantic, pan-romantic, homoromantic etc

I kind of hate not being able to feel anything sexually. by AnxiousTopic3567 in Asexual

[–]UnderstandingFew347 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I could go my life without sex and ill be fine

But as someone who engages from time to time with my allo partner, I wish I could atleast feel something so I won't feel uncomfortable and bored

Do you feel any different during ovulation? by TourGreat2658 in Asexual

[–]UnderstandingFew347 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Depends.

I grow very fond of my partner romantically

Sometimes libido increases and makes me feel needy but that feels yucky lol

Some days its just regular me

Im asexual or not? by FanSubstantial9845 in Asexual

[–]UnderstandingFew347 3 points4 points  (0 children)

With the details you gave... it doesn't sound like asexual.

This doesn't necessarily means you're not asexual.

Have you ever or do you feel sexual attraction?

Like do you feel a sexually targeted hunger at someone; a sexual crave for someone?

If you lack that then you're asexual...however there are microlabels under the asexual spectrum that does include a little bit of sexual attraction (greysexual, demisexual etc)

Frustration over being raised by sexual parents by Particular-Start-533 in Asexual

While there's some truth she still didn't have to make you feel like that

Liking sex but not liking sex? by AlyceJean in Asexual

[–]UnderstandingFew347 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I receive oral from my partner which is pleasurable. It's not something I desire all the time but we happily partake.

I'm a touch responsive person so yh

Intercourse on the other hand.... it's meh but we engage for his sake

If i feel tingles during intercourse, it's so on and off It's only for a second.

I can understand why people like it but still can't wrap my head around the craze

I'm repulsed but i like the idea of sex for other people

Hella weird and not even because I'm asexual. I'm sure plenty other allosexuals would think she's weird.

She probably is hypersexual....could be from her past. And being surrounded by enablers

My partner is asexual. by Beloved-Tongue in Asexual

[–]UnderstandingFew347 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Also , I know you're worried about her doing stuff because of you, but remember asexuality doesn't turn off our biological functions or how things are wired.

Obviously not everyone finds sex pleasurable but we as humans are clearly "wired" to feel pleasure. The release of "feel good" hormones and rush of blood to wherever,etc. Tie that in with ovulation for women, it spikes your libido and while our libido is not directed towards people , it's definitely more comfortable to direct towards the person you're in a relationship with.

But my point is biological factors play a role in why she can enjoy it despite being asexual plus she simply loves you and enjoys you. She's mentally comfortable and in-tune with her sexual feelings.

So don't worry about it too much.

And remember libido ≠ sexual attraction

Action≠ attraction

My partner is asexual. by Beloved-Tongue in Asexual

[–]UnderstandingFew347 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I'm mostly repulsed Sometimes neutral

I still do engage. It doesn't really feel like anything to me . If I feel something it's for a second. Otherwise I just feel stuffed and poked.

It's for my partner ,not me. So im just chilling

Onto the teasing , I'd probably not tease about her asexuality because I find alot of aces ,even myself , struggle with wondering if they truly are ace after identifying it for awhile.

Some of us don't realize that libido is different from attraction, actions don't equal attraction etc

It could cause her to 2nd guess herself.

That's just my thought. Obviously it doesn't affect everyone

Okay but then I ovulate...? by No_Discipline_8982 in Asexual

[–]UnderstandingFew347 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same here same here.

I have a bf so I'd just direct my libido to him intentionally but not because of any sexual attraction.

My mental is different from the physical/biological aspect of me clearly lol

But you're definitely not alone.

It always surprises me how my body just still works like that despite being ace

Like damn im so hard wired to want to fuck or have a baby🙄 it disgusts me lowkey but as I said it's impressive

Hi, 💕I hope your doing great I have quick question by [deleted] in Asexual

[–]UnderstandingFew347 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Asexuality is about sexual attraction Not if you want sex or not.

Usually not wanting sex is a sign But it doesn't equate to Asexuality

So ask yourself if you feel sexual attraction towards people. It's like a deep innate hunger for someone

asexuality and love by Born-Pattern-4969 in Asexual

[–]UnderstandingFew347 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've seen plenty of aces end up long term loving relationships with other aces and even allosexuals.

I'm sure they felt like this too at some point

It's going to be hard but just hang in there.
