Adults: Kids these days are so obsessed with sex. Current media trends are corrupting our children. Sex is everywhere!
Asexual kid: I’m asexual.
Adults: Oh, you just haven’t been exposed to enough sex to understand. Once you learn more you’ll grow out of it.

Another Ace Day infographic. This actually shows the card suits and their definitions.
Declaring yourself asexual is actually a form of self-diagnosis.
You have no business diagnosing yourself. You are not qualified to evaluate your own biology or psychology. It’s literally equivalent to just deciding you’re bipolar. It’s not a personal identity decision.
You have no business diagnosing yourself.
Are you… Are you implying that gay people cAN’T IDENTIFY AS GAY THEY HAVE TO BE DIAGNOSED HOLY CRAP THIS IS COMEDY GOLD THERE’S NO WAY YOU AREN’T A TROLL.
“Tim, your results came back. You’re gay.”
“Thanks, Doc. There’s absolutely no way I could have possibly known that on my own without your official diagnosis.”

Yes. Also, Health class should just be watching Laci Green videos.
Her asexuality video is what made me realize that I am asexual.
I wrote a poem on asexuality
I look around
Nothing to see
I smile at them
But they don’t please
I look for something
Feeling broken inside
“He is sexy”
I often lied
I feel broken
What’s wrong with me?
I turn to the internet
To ask and plee
I get lots of messages
trying to explain me
I found a word that fits
Asexuality
I finally figured it out
there are people who are alike
It took a while to know
But it was worth the hike
attdoctor-prophet:
sex-positive asexuals are people who are willing to have sex.
sex-repulsed asexuals are people who want nothing to do with sex.
sex-neutral asexuals are people who are indifferent about sex.
all types of asexuals do not experience sexual attraction, but that does not define their sex life, nor does it mean their sexuality is invalid.

*raises hand* I have a question.
How can an asexual person have sex with someone, if they’re not sexually attracted to them?
An asexual’s body is perfectly functional. It reacts to touch just like anyone else’s, meaning, an asexual will experience physical arousal and likely feel appropriate pleasure from sex when touched in a way that feels good to them personally. Asexuality isn’t the lack of sexual functions, it’s the lack of sexual attraction only, and sex can be present without specific attraction. For example, a sex positive asexual might have a what appears to be a quite active sex life for other reasons than attraction solely; emotional bonding, physical pleasure, relaxation and fun are just some reasons to like sex, even with the “kicker” being gone from the act.
The lack of sexual attraction doesn’t automatically mean a partner is undesirable to an ace – it just means they aren’t specifically attractive in that certain way. Other motivations may take over, or they may not.
Wow, thank you for this! Posts like these are really helping me to understand asexuality a lot more, and I am super appreciative of that.
A FUCKING MEN
REBLOG if you’re pan/bi/asexual
OR if you are the Great Dragon Rider here to reclaim your position and save the world from Republicans
there are asexuals who can find people attractive but have zero desire for sex
there are asexuals who have libidos but aren’t driven by it and don’t find people attractive
there are asexuals with no libidos who also don’t find people attractive
love all asexuals!!!
If you’re not watching Sirens on Thursday nights at 10pm on USA, then you’re missing out. Not only is it one of the funniest shows out there right now — being that it’s co-created and executive produced by Denis Leary — but it’s also highly inclusive.
It centers on a team of Chicago EMTs, and focuses on the odd partnership of three men, Brian, who is the new guy, Johnny, a guy with a slow developing emotional range, and Hank, an African-American homosexual who defies all stereotypes the rest of popular media inflicts upon gay men. Their team is fleshed out in Cash, Voodoo, and Stats. And last night’s episode showed that Voodoo is asexual.
It took Brian from confusion and denail, to attempts to understand, and eventually wrapped it all around in a bow of acceptance. Brian went from the ideology that asexuals “just haven’t had proper sex,” to wanting to understand what asexual means — and failing — and finally all the way to realizing that sex isn’t what defines relationships, and that just being around Voodoo is enough for him.
Do yourselves a favor, and catch up on the episodes, and start tuning in Thursdays at 10.
this looks promising!!
THERE’S AN ASEXUAL CHARACTER ON A TV SHOW RIGHT NOW SPREAD THIS SHIT LIKE WILDFIRE
OMG
I haven’t seen it and doesn’t look like my kind of show, but maybe some of you all would be interested!

“If we never have sex, that’s okay; I’m just happy being around you” greatest thing I have seen in a long time
Little by little, representation. This makes me really happy.
