#ace spectrum

Like dont get me wrong, i love the idea of sex and im sure it feels great i defo wanna do it some day. But i dont find naked bodies attractive and the concept of sex sounds so gross to me. I dont like the feeling of my skin touching skin and i hate getting messy and dirty and not being clean, the sensory side of it is just hell.

I defo feel sexual attraction but i dont find sex appealing, i would end up just avoiding it all together. I stg there is a sexuality for this i just havent found it yet.

I feel sexual attraction but im not attracted to sex. I dont find any naked bodies or genitalia attractive, if anything it grosses me out, but i definitely like the idea of sex.

Sex in theory? ✅️✅️✅️

It’s not that I’m uninterested, it’s that I need time, connection, and understanding before I know what I feel.

I don’t want to fake attraction signals just to reassure someone. I want my feelings to develop honestly.

not unless i’m very close with someone, and they make the first move

sure i make nsfw jokes but i’m very shy when it comes to the topic of sex

RESEARCH PARTICIPANTS NEEDED!

Currently recruiting participants for ‘ACE in an ALLO world’, a photovoice research project exploring lived experiences of people who identify on the Asexuality spectrum.

Eligibility: Participants must be 18+, live in the UK, and identify as a person on the asexuality spectrum. We are intentionally seeking a diverse range of participants to ensure wide representation of lived experience across the ace spectrum and intersectional demographics.

Photovoice Research Project: Participants will be asked to take a series of photos that represent their lived experience over a 2-week period, in response to provided prompts. Once their photos have been submitted, participants will be invited to discuss their chosen images in an online focus group (5-6 people per group).
