After a while, we're taking a day off with another off topic show. We discuss about examples of Asexuality in literature and television, attacks on the Finnish Pride parade and other more or less asexuality-related tangents.

Please do add your thoughts about the subject, but I urge you to listen to the show first. It will considerably clarify the poll and give tons of thought-provoking entertainment. You can find the show here:

It seems to me that being different helps to more clearly define the mainstream, which isn't exactly a threat, and isn't a good thing. The very definition of 'different' needs something to be defined against, and then things get sketchy and polar.

...If that made any sense.

Actual threat or not, some people will see difference as a threat. I think the mainstream is more of a threat to those who are different. By definition, the mainstream has safety in numbers. :P

By the way, thanks for reading my post in the other thread. For once, I don't have anything to pick on this time. xD

Yay for being interested in grammar! :D

I cannot listen the show but I am sure I am extreamely dangerous for the society. Especially when I am home alone crying. Neighbours may hear it and called the police to demand urgent silence.

Of course, being different is a threat to mainstream society. That's good though, because mainstream is in need of being redefined.
