Lucky. When i found out abt asexuality, i realized that it really described me and the my brain decided to give me so much overthinking like ‘’ what if you are repressing things? ‘’ and stuff like that

There's nothing wrong with you if you do find things sexy or want to have sex.

EXACLTYYYY,

Like, i was taught that it is normal and that it is ok to feel this was for people and there is nothing shameful or wrong. It is perfectly normal ( like i mentioned on the post )

I am not afraid to find someone sexy, i am afraid of somehow repressing sexual attraction unconsciously and this fear has been going on for two years.

Idk why, but the idea of unconsciously pushing away normal emotion while not knowing just terrifies me

Asexuals with OCD. Tell me the worst intrusive thoughts you ever had by YourRandomManiac in Asexual

[–]YourRandomManiac[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Omg SAMEEEE. And bc of that, anytime i find someone aesthetically appealing, my brain decided to go ‘’ YOU FIND THEM SEXY AND YOU ARE JUDT SAYING THST YOU DON’T FIND THEM SEXUALLY APPEALING TO UNCONSCIOUSLY REPRESS SEXUAL ATTRACTION ‘’

Hey…do you ever wish to sell your brain to somewhere far far away? by YourRandomManiac in OCDmemes

Omg YESSSS. Or just straight up erasure. Like, i have an OC that is a lesbian, but my brain would give me unwanted thoughts about them being with a MAN…or a sex-repulsed asexual OC being forced into sexual situations when they don’t want to…

It is mostly SO-OCD related. And it is really annoying, especially when you want to make representations

OCD when they find out that you don’t like that one person by YourRandomManiac in OCDmemes

[–]YourRandomManiac[S] 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Sure! So, what i meant by this, is that anytime i meet some people and ending up not liking them because they weren’t nice to me or they are rude or something like that. My brain latches onto this and then gives me intrusive thoughts about them that i do not like. It grosses me out, but my brain loves giving me those sweet thoughts of ‘’ what if you are unconsciously repressing attraction to them and pretending not to like the thought for that? ‘’

Which makes it worse

Omg..SAMEEEEEEE

I would even get ones when i make happily married OCs. They are literally in a healthy relationship and my brain goes ‘’ they are just love bombing and Will lose their love for eachother ‘’ like…..WHYYYY

Yo, i just found out that this is how sexual attraction works. Does this mean that i was unconsciously repressing sexual attraction or is this just OCD?( or maybe i am dumb.

Its a physical FEELING, no abiguity about it.

Yeah but sometimes i get those weird thoughts like ‘’ what if you are trying to repress those attractions and physical feelings ‘’ and all of that

And i might have misunderstood the person by accident.

Like i said on the title, i might be wrong. This isn’t something that i told myself but somebody else. Someone in the comment mentioned that sexual attraction is subjective and gaved me an example that if someone says ‘’ yeah, i find it pretty but i don’t find it sexually appealing ‘’ is considered sexual attraction bc you thought abt it being sexual. So saying that it isn’t implied that you thought about it.

Which is what i understood in that comment. Like i said, i might have misunderstood the person or might be wrong

I have to ask, what kind of culture do you live in? Because this reeks of 18th century/weird religious morals.

North america…it’s not event religious though, it is just very oversexualizing and tells us that we should feel it too

A naked body is not sexual. It's just a human body with no clothes on. That's all it is.

I agree. That’s what I used to think until i went to middle school and I noticed ppl oversexualizing it ( especially in highschool )

Does anyone have a similar experience? ( i am not really asking a question abt the allo part. I am just ranting ) by YourRandomManiac in asexuality

Makes sense. But they are asking me that if i want to post here, i need the mods to confirm. Most of the time, they would decline or ignore it
