What it’s Like to Be Demisexual
About the flag
The demisexual flag uses the colors from the asexual flag, since demisexual falls under the asexual umbrella. The black triangle represents asexuality. The white represents sexuality. The purple strip represents community. The grey represents the grey-asexual spectrum.
What does demisexual mean?
When someone experiences sexual attraction only after forming an emotional connection with the person.
What is it like to be demisexual?
So…when I was younger and my friends started getting crushes on people that they never talked to and basically didn’t know anything else than how they looked, it just confused me. Like, how can you have a crush if you don’t know anything about the person. Like, I could tell they were cute or handsome but that’s basically it. Then there was this person, they were nothing special, I didn’t even think they were attractive but as I got to know them better they were the prettiest person on earth in my opinion. Basically I don’t care about looks. You can be as pretty as you want, I will still feel no feelings for you. If I get to know you and like you I can fall in love with you. I don’t fall in love with how you look, I fall in love with your personality (sounds cheesy but that’s how it is for me) so I can even fall in love with an “ugly” person if I love their personality and I can’t imagine doing sexual things with a person that is attractive and I don’t know their personality. It’s just…no…xD
