Common Sense Privilege

I don't know your age, but I'll assume here that you're past puberty. If not, then you might not be sexually differentiated yet and it would be premature to judge. To give some relavent terms a brief recap, asexuality is the lack of sexual attraction/desire, and sexual desire is a want to have sex. Mind the step there; sexual desire is only the desire to have sex, not the desire to talk, cuddle, look, or be friends with. If there is anyone you feel sexual desire towards, then you are not asexual. Your actual sex drive or libido level doesn't have an implicit impact on your sexuality. Fear of sex is a common enough condition across all sexualities, particularly in virgins and young people. It doesn't mean you are asexual/greysexual, but neither does it mean you aren't. Once more, if you ever feel sexual desire you aren't asexual, but that doesn't always mean you are sexual. If you feel sexual desire much less frequently than is normal for your demographic then you could be greysexual, and that would be just fine. Whatever your sexuality, is isn't anything to be ashamed of, and no one will think less of you based on your chosen label. If you have not experienced puberty then I would advise that you forestall judgement for the moment, but you are free to make whatever personal decision you desire.

I would say that it should be mentioned in sequence with the other three main sexualities; Heterosexual, Homosexual, Bisexual, and Asexual should all be noted and briefly defined, but Sex Ed is actually more about actual sex education, not sexuality education. The class is intended to teach about the risks and protective measures involved with sex, so asexuality should receive no more recognition that any other sexuality.

This is actually the single most impressive act of human coordination I have ever witnessed, and the best marching band ever. Period. This game tribute makes the actual football game pale in comparison, no matter how well they play.

In the spirit of Asexual Awareness Week, I'm inviting questions both claimed and anonymous about asexuality. Ask me anything you've been wondering about asexuality or what it's like to be an asexual, and I'll answer best I can publicly or privately, by the questioner's preference. You can even ask any TMI questions or awkward questions you have unanswered, and I won't judge them. Fire away, satisfy your curiosity!

I'm not sure I can do that. What's TMI about me even? I'm just Bucket. Go for it, pique my curiosity. I'm a boring Ace so all my TMI will be more like DMI. Disappointingly mundane information.

As an asexual, I wanted to find a close friend to cuddle with without being in a romantic/sexual relationship. A caring friend suggested that I look for a queerplatonic partner. While the idea makes sense, I've been wondering ever since why "queer" is there at all. The definition would not change if it was just platonic partner. The queer prefix seems to be there just for the sake of making the term special, but doesn't that somewhat erase the connotation of the word people are going for? When queer is used just to make some term seem edgy or special it causes the term queer to gain another definition: petty. When everything is special, it's all the same. Word irony. Queer, taking the definition of odd or abnormal, isn't really appropriate to tack on to other random words, such as platonic. There's nothing particularly odd about close friends.

Hey there person. Considering late night? I might go with Sir Tophat soon.

Either or both if one is being rode by Abraham Lincoln.

There are so many buttons here, and I know what so little of them do. Promote this? As in advertise it or something? Level it up? Time to experiment it seems. I'll just click things and see what happens.
