No problem with the concept.

The community (mostly centered around AVEN) is utter shit though

I guess the trolls that say we don't exist must be asleep or something.

I think we're cool, but we haven't much to say except

Pretty much this.
Other then that the only time asexual gets brought up is usually when someone is trolling.

This is my new favourite board, but besides of fending off trolls, I mostly lurk. If someone has legit questions about how are asexuals, I usually answer, but it's getting quite repetitive.

What is /lgbt/'s opinion on video games?
What is /lgbt/'s opinion on next year's Ferrari models?
What is /lgbt/'s opinion on good Canadian hostels?
What is /lgbt/'s opinion on 4th Edition D&D?
What is /lgbt/'s opinion on hentai sites?

It's Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual & Transgender. Stop trying to force the off-topic posting constantly. There's no a in /lgbt/.

Your sexuality is a lie.

It doesn't exist.

It's a falsehood created by those above you.

Wake up.

>>191028
yeah pretty much. Anyone got any stories they wish to tell?

>>191073
Same here. It is nice getting to chat with asexuals who are not the shitty AVEN variety.

I think they're just being unreasonable and stupid.

I especially hate when they're hot and attractive - You really have no right to deny others a chance. Really.

Ugly asexuals get a pass, because, well, ugly.

>>191106
This could be said of all the others though

>>191122
You do know there are some asexuals who are willling to have sex with others, right?

>>191122
So self centered. Do you listen to yourself? It's like "Damn those hot gays, why they abandon us girls" or whatever variation fits you.

>>191131

No, it can't be

asexuality removes a necessary part of relationships

your dicks/vags don't work right and you call it a sexuality

it's far from that

it is a disorder.

a disease.

>>190937 (OP)
It's not any more deviant or "unnatural" than L, G, or B

>>191107
How do your parents deal with your asexuality?

Mine are always nagging me about how I will never bring grandchildren and how no woman will love me if I say I'm asexual. Or how everyone is going to think I'm gay. Or that I'm not getting jobs because of it ( I mean, have you seen someone get fired for being ace?)

>>191154
>a necessary part of relationships
Like being able to have children?

>>191122
No offense intending but fucking someone can be a pain in the ass especially when your asexual. I am sure some of us are willing for our partners enjoyment its just a lot of work. At least when you actually try your hardest if you don't screw you. I am asexual and even I have the decency to try to fuck someone properly even if I am not a fan.

>>191139

Then why are they asexual?

>>191143

Hey, I was being complimentary and maybe self-centered but to completely deny any gender funtimes when you're hot is wrong.
There should be a law.

I'm a bisexual female btw

>>191154
My dick works fine.

>>191173
>Then why are they asexual?
They still don't enjoy/desire sex, but they're willing to have sex if it makes their partner happy.

>>191173
>implying we deny all sexy times.

Given that they're a loving partner and that it would satisfy them, I would have sex with my partner.

Asexuality is not about not doing it, it's about not being attracted to people.

I hate that being asexual makes you so oblivious to this stuff.

>>191166
I haven't told my parents because I don't feel the need to tell my parents.
Maybe it's just because I'm a girl or maybe it's because I don't feel the need to tell everyone I see that I'm asexual, but I've never had any problems because of the fact I'm asexual.

>Or that I'm not getting jobs because of it
Bullshit, and if you actually did get fired it was probably for constantly annoying your coworkers not because you were asexual.

>>191224
My dad lost a little respect for me.

He thought I was literally too focused on school and science to be distracted by such physical nonsense. He thought I was strong to fight the distraction.

He also thought I cared more for the feelings than the looks and that I was a real gentleman. I still do that, but it's kind of a default mode for me.

>>191285
I told them because they nagged me so much about getting a girlfriend.

>Hey son, did you see a cute girl today at school?
>wat?
>I mean, your school has the prettiest ladies in the city!
>I don't care dad
>seriously? no one?

Pretty much the daily routine.

>>191329
That sucks. The worst I get from my parents usually comes from my mom. It goes to the tune of:

>When are you going to give me grandchildren
>I'm going to do this or that when you get married
>Grandchildren, grandchildren, grandchildren

>>191306
Ah I don't know even know what they would think. Their both really cold people. As for the women deal I regret being a stubborn moron when I was younger.

It should make you feel shitty to have such a dumb friend. I mean, breaking down over a rejection and demanding reasons? That's not cool.

Don't feel shitty, that was really not your fault. The guy has issues. He should habe just been a little disappointed, not crying.

Look for the thread that talks about how many holes you fucked or dicks you had. I am the guy who pulled off fucking 3 daughters and their mother...repeatedly. That is only part of it.

>>191584
Thats a part of it, for some reason I have found that it is a major turn on for a lot of people(specially when they don't know your asexual).

>>191584
Maybe that explains it, because in all honesty I do not consider myself an attractive person.

>>191281

No, bullshit. This is something I hate.

Being asexual does NOT MEAN that you are automatically socially oblivious to sexual advances, retard.

>>193620
Maybe not automatically, but I tend to not realize because I'm not even paying attention to this kind of stuff becauseI'm not attracted.

If you're not "sexually attracted" but still get into relationships, you're not asexual.

>>194417
No, you're a romantic asexual.

Asexuals are tumblr scum lol

>>194520
There are also obnoxious gays on tumblr. We're getting away from the same people here, folks.

Asexualism is gay

I am opressed becsuse I don't have sex. waaaaaaash. invisible minority as fuck

Hey, I have some questions. I know that aces masturbate sometimes, but I'm confused as to when. Do you feel horny about nothing in particular? Do you just get a random boner and jerk off to make it go away? What if you're female? And is it just a chore, or do you enjoy it, just not very much?
For those of you who had sex, how does it feel, did you find it difficult to get hard/wet, and was it something you did solely to please your partner or was it also good on a level other than altruistic?

I'm not just being curious for the sake of curiosity, I am planning to write an asexual character and I'd like to make sure I do him justice.
With the only other sources of information are those AVEN and Tumblr people, there are chances of getting a more honest answer here.

>>194648
I usually do it when I get random boners. Most of the time they are morning wood. I enjoy it, it's fun.

Asexuals can get horny too, but it's directed at nothing. It's just this uneasy feeling that you need to get off.

For the love of everything, don't write a Sheldon Cooper expy. He's the weirdest aromantic asexual I've yet to see in the media. Saying sex is unhygenic and icky is something a few, emphasis on the word few here, asexuals say.

>>194648
I haven't had sex yet, but I would want to try it to see what's it like. For science.

>>194520
how does /lgbt/, a community of sexual deviants, get so bothered by asexuals?

>>194648
I'm not sure if I qualify as an asexual person but I do have sexual anhedonia.
Masturbation does feel like a chore and it can take a long time for me to ejaculate.
I have found that sound is more effective than visual stimulation for me, though that doesn't change the fact that I don't feel shit pre-, during or post-climax.
Due to general anhedonia, I have not pursued relationships of any kind so I can't comment with certainty about intercourse.
I find it hard to get off to the idea of intercourse with another person since I imagine the experience would feel like pistoning a metal bar through a brick wall.

>>194763
Because we weren't as oppressed as them and
>mah victimz club!

>>194732

Thank you. I assume that you haven't had sex with another person, right? How do you feel about the prospect?

And no, I don't like Big Bang Theory, worry not about it. I think that saying sex is icky and unhygienic is a sign of deeper issues rather than asexuality itself.

My character is rather sex-positive, which is why I need to know real aces' outlook on the stuff.

>>194770
To know if you really are asexual, regardless of anhedonia, ask yourself this:
>Do I really get attracted to girls? Do I think they're hot? Have I ever thought they were hot?

Or in case you were gay replace girls with boys and ask yourslelf the same question.

>>194817
I am attracted to the female body, so I guess I'm not asexual.
Thanks for clearing that up for me.

>>194795
See
>>194762

I'd like to pleasure my girlfriend, because the fact of her getting pleasured arouses me [in contrast with just getting aroused by her in general]. Also, to see what it's like

>>194770

Are you suffering from anhedonia in general? This sounds more like a disorder than being asexual. Have you sought therapy?

>>194832
You're welcome, I'm here to help.

>>194763

I hate special snowflake attention whores in general. Asexuals are special snowflake attention whores.

>>194839

Ah, thanks. And, if you don't mind another question, would you ever consider getting a hooker just to see what it's like, putting aside the issues of STDs/morality/money? Or do you suspect that if it wasn't with a person you cared about, sex would not be pleasureable?

>>194844
I've been seeing an accomplished psychologist for almost a year now, taken all kinds of SSRIs but so far it hasn't really changed anything.

>>194857
Says the special snowflake

>>194865

I see, good to know you're not alone, at least. I wonder, how do you cope with everyday life?

Serious question, not trying to troll.

>>194907
welcome to /a/

>all this projection

>>194898
I sleep.

>>194877

I'm not the one flaunting my imaginary sexuality for anyone who will listen, desperately trying to explain why I'm forever alone.

>>194864
I was just about to say STDs and money would stop me. Besides that most hookers look ugly and overused.

I guess physically speaking it would be pleasurable, just as rape is pleasurable too.

I wouldn't be too much into it, she would seem like a glorified fleshlight. I might do it to try it, but my motivation would be much lower, and I fear it might not get me as aroused. I'd probably think it was a stupid idea before I got to hire a hooker.

If I was completely rich and could get her to my place the instant I get horny, she would probably be a glorified masturbation.

Anyways, the moment I would get with one, I would spend more time analyzing her vagina than actually having sex.

>justifying your social ineptitude by labeling it as a sexuality

This is why nobody takes us seriously.

>>194907
I guess so, yeah.

>>194952
But I'm not socially inept when it comes to friends. Or maybe I am, aside from being ace.

>>194941
It's more like, before I knew it was a thing, I felt broken as a person. I thought I was the only one. The more people that know about it, the less people who will feel like they are broken for not liking anyone.

Honestly I think most people who call themselves Asexuals are lying because they either want to be special snowflakes or have no clue how to talk to other people and are to intimidated to learn.

I have nothing wrong with them but I personally don't think they have any place on this board. This is a discussion of LGBT lifestyles it is not a place were Aces jerk each other off by validated how miserable they are because they arn't "normal" which most of their threads turn into.

Honestly I think most people who call themselves Homosexuals are lying because they either want to be special snowflakes or have no clue how to talk to the opposite sex and are to intimidated to learn.

I kind of agree we have not much to talk about, but so do all of you. Trans threads are always either drama or how to pass advice. Gay threads are mostly "how gay are you?" "gay marriage" or husbando threads. Lesbian threads I haven't gone to.

All this namefags

My only real relationship was with an asexual biromantic guy. When we were started seeing each other, he didn't know about asexuality though. It's not that he didn't like sex, just that it didn't arouse him; like he had no labido whatsoever. He knew knew how to flirt, was smart, probably 9/10. There was even a point when a supermodel sort of used him as her boytoy whenever she was in the country. He had been with plenty of people and could have pretty much anyone he wants; I very well might be the last person he ever dates though. Kind of a waste honestly, but after being with him, there is no doubt in my mind that asexuality is a legitimate thing. Its problems are very different from lgbt problems though. They're more likely to be fixed with therapy than with legislation.

>>195160
No. I might want sex because of different reasons.

>>195170

It's impossible to have sex without sexual attraction

soz

So much trolling in this thread.

>>190957

> No one wants to suggest that anyone might be anything other than asexual

this pisses me off, why are they so desperate to be called asexual?

Not denying that asexuals exist but when you start inventing ''gray-asexuality'' or ''demisexuality'' just so even more people can call themselves asexual it's going too far

>>195165
>fix with therapy
Why would we need that? I hope you're not suggesting you're trying to turn us straight, that never works.

Libido is independent from asexuality. Asexuality is not being attracted to people.

Sexuality is a spectrum. It should be the y axis on the kinsey scale. The z axis should be romantic attraction.

>>195217
>rape
You can't rape the willing.

>>195223
I meant the rapist.

>>195228

And asexuality isn't even on the 'spectrum'. Autism is a spectrum too but you don't get people who are part-autistic and part-not autistic. You're either on the spectrum or not

>>195235

>oh man I totally don't feel like fucking anyone today so I'll go and rape someone

Sorry, should have clarified. Therapy to cope with the fact that a satisfying relationship is extremely difficult to find for an asexual person, and to give an emotional outlet for other parts of a relationship outside of sex that an asexual person might still desire.

>>195246
Sometimes it's just for power though.

>>195249
Oh, i see.
I don't feel like I need therapy though. I just want a qt gf to cuddle with, i don't think that's so difficult to cope with.

>>195256

Yeah you're right asexuals are capable of sexual intercourse because when they feel inadequate they rape someone

>>195242
Says the autist.

I don't get how the romantic part works. So you only want to romance women or what?

>>195350
I want a qt gf to cuddle with and go to the movies, and play vidya together and go on 4chan together.

Does it feel different when you kiss a guy to when you kiss a girl?

I don't know, haven't tried. Guys don't seem the kind to want to cuddle with me though, nor that inspire me to cuddle with them. Guys are bros for me.

There are homo romantic or biromantic guys out there who would disagree with me though

>>195397

the ''sexual'' part in ''heterosexual'' and ''homosexual'' refers to the sex you are attracted to either romantically or sexually, not to the nature of the attraction. There is no ''heteroromantic'' or ''homoromantic''
