Sex-Interest Poll (this is a bad title)

Just out of curiosity, what degree of sex-repulsed or sex-positive are you? I mean if you're comfortable with disclosing such information, of course. And, on a side note, is this a bad question to ask? Can anyone tell I've never been on a forum in my life?

I'll start out! I fluctuate erratically between extremely sex-repulsed (to the point where even raunchy jokes might make me more than vaguely uncomfortable) and "true" sex-neutral (in which I honestly couldn't care less about doing sexually intimate things).

A good day to everyone!

Personally, I have nothing against sex, as long as it's something people do with each other and not with me. To me, sex is a trivial fact - something some people enjoy, like work-outs or skydiving. I'm fine as long as I'm not involved. So completely and utterly neutral to the existence of sex, I think. I can take part in jokes and discussions, I just don't much care for the action - and mainly because it bores me, and I don't do boring well.

I can talk about it and my mind is always in the gutter but when it comes to the act itself. I am completely repulsed. Just had a shiver thinking about it. Did you forget the poll part?

I'm somewhere in between indifferent and repulsed.

When it doesn't involve me, I can talk or joke about sex like a pished-up sailor. When it is about me I feel a sort of uncomfortable, or nothing at all, depending on how graphic it is. When I'm with other people in intimate situations it's not so bad, but thinking about it is a bit worse, somehow.

i would say that i'm sex-positive.

i'm sex-positive in some of these ways: i'm extremely supportive of accurate and consistent sex and sexuality education fro everyone, tolerance of the fluidity of sexuality (from sexual identities, gender identities, and consented to expressions) and for people being safely sexually active if they choose.

that being said, i might be somewhat sex-repulsed by the fact that generally, i don't like to talk about it. exceptions would be to help someone else out to learn and such things. but apart from that type of controlled and focused discussions, i can't really handle it.

also seeing sexual scenes (sometimes even just kissing) makes me feel every distressed. it's something i would rather avoid seeing, personally,

I know that sex is a basic factor in a majority of people's lives, but personally I am very sex-repulsed to the point where I'm uncomfortable in a conversation where someone is talking about their or someone else's sexual activities. But somehow, despite my friends knowing I'm ace, they always tend to talk to me about it. I've learned to not mind as much, since they are my friends after all, but it's still very much a one sided conversation since I obviously have nothing to contribute.

Overall while it bothers me I know it exists so I realize that I have to deal with those types of situations/conversations.

I'm sex positive in the way I'm for sex being taught about more accurately and starting being taught earlier on, no slut shaming, or kink shaming, etc etc.

I guess I'm mostly curious about sex, that's not really a positive or negative thing in my eyes though. Like I feel like I should try it at least twice (once with a girl, the other with a guy or vice versa or only once I guess if I decide I don't want to do it with one sex or end up really liking it with one sex haha) before I come to a final opinion on it. I'm a little repulsed about it though. Like the more I think about it and what actually goes on in terms of like exchanging fluids and just being that physically close to another person the more grossed out/uncomfortable I get.

I would consider myself very sex positive in that I think it's very important for people to be educated about safety, consent, etc. and that there needs to be greater acceptance and respect for people to express themselves sexually in whatever way they want (provided it's consensual). I'm even comfortable being outspoken about sex positivity and engaging in conversations about sex.

I am also completely sex repulsed - at least to hetero situations. I didn't used to be, but since my last relationship I've been unable to see myself being with a man in any context other than platonically and I get very uncomfortable when I watch or see pictures of hetero couples doing anything mildly affectionate. If I ever date a girl or nb person, I would still very much prefer not to be sexual, but I feel like I could compromise in a way that I wouldn't with men.

I think I sway more towards sex repulsed as talking about sex is fine but the thought of actually doing it is just a bit weird to me. I'd maybe do it if I had been with the same person for a long time but having never been in that position I can't say for sure :wacko:

I'm in between sex repulsed and indifferent. I'm fine with like PG-13 type sex scenes or raunchy jokes where its more implied and you don't see anything. But thats about it. Anything more than that grosses me out and makes me feel super uncomfertable!

Indifferent. I can take or leave it basiclly. I'm not repulsed by it. I find i'm more limited by my body due to my leg muscles cramp up whenever i get close to orgasam. However it isn't really a want or need for me. I'm not repusled and do some stuff but i don't feel the need to really seek it out or attain it.

I enjoy sex. I don't desire it like sexuals, but I have come to enjoy the physical feeling of it a lot. As long as the other person humors me with my fetish, I'm down for sex.

I am extremely sex-repulsed, and, yes, sex-negative, too. Asexual AND antisexual.

That does not mean, however, that I feel, as suggested in some other thread, in any way superior to sexuals or so.

It's just something other people do, and another part of a sexual orientation-based activity applicable to those who are attracted sexually to others, or experience arousal. As for myself, I don't care for it. I'd rather have cake.

I would say the majority of the time I lean far more toward very sex-repulsed. But everyonce in a while the idea of trying something more sexually intimate doesn't really bother me? Not that I want it, it just simply wouldn't bother me the way it usually does. I dunno what specifically causes thoses lulls, I just noticed that they do in come around for me too.

pretty darn repulsed and resentful to it. I don't want it anywhere near me and it makes me very uncomfortable and disgusted. I love affection but the max for me is a mouth closed kiss and only because as a compromise with zucchini. I don't see s*x as good in an way because there are plenty of other things that can do a similar thing and the negatives out way the positives. It's pretty useless and harmful to me. But i can tolerate others doing it if it is done in a respectful and private manner, not boasting or pushing it on others. anti-sexual, s*x-negative but respectful of others if they respect me and are nice to me. But i do stay wary of bad promiscuous behavior like addicted to lust or dependent on it or make their lives revolve around it ect
This is the only place i can say this without getting attacked ( too much) by 's*x-positive' people.

I am downright repulsed by it. I see it as no different than picking each others' noses. Eww. That's why I have "40 year virgin" syndrome LOL I don't mind talking about who's cute or beautiful (in both sexes I can deeply appreciate beauty) but I don't need to hear talk or jokes about specifics. I don't go ballistic if I do hear it though, I just keep my mouth shut and let the subject pass :)

That said, I do feel romatic/aesthetic attraction, sometimes to the point of making me sick but I do not pursue anything since learning the proper words for my orientation.

However, that being said, I'm actually for early and accurate sex education. I want people who are drawn to it to be informed about it, be smart about it and be wise with it.

I'm sex-repulsed toward other people, as in, the idea of sex with anyone I know (or random people I don't know, for that matter) is unpleasant. The idea of sex in the abstract (like sexual fantasies and stuff), though, seems appealing, but only sometimes.

Where the person I am romantically attracted to is concerned, sex seems like a pleasant and intimate thing, but it only really comes to mind after at least several months. Having never been in a romantic relationship before, I'm not entirely sure where I stand on this.

I have a strong non-reaction when encountering sexual discussions or images, but prolonged sexual/sexy discussions bore me and it's honestly not that interesting. It's like, if sex is so great, why are you still standing here talking to me? Go have some sex. :P
