Am I asexual?


Recommended Posts

I never really thought about it all that much until I saw a tumblr post about it. It mentioned one type of asexuality that really stuck with me.

I definitely get romantic feelings towards people (possibly too much haha), and I don't dislike sex. It's just really easily replaceable. Whenever I have it I just think like I could easily be doing something else and not care at all. I've never craved sex or looked at someone and thought "wow I really wanna have sex with you."

I'm just not sure if that's really classified as asexual?

I'm also not great at abbreviations so any replies please use the full words.

Thank you!! Xx

Standard disclaimer 1: Only you can determine if you are asexual or not. All I can do is provide my opinion.

Standard disclaimer 2: I am an asexual person and have an asexual worldview. I have a really bad tendency to see asexuality in people even if it is not there.

Now that THAT is out of the way, you sound asexual (via the lack of sexual desire definition) to me. If you have never desired partnered sex, then I would say you are asexual.

So.....welcome to AVEN and the asexual club! Have seat and help yourself to some cake!

Being able to have sex, and even not minding it, does not prevent a person from being asexual. There are asexuals who are repulsed by sex and others who have no libidos, but that's not universal. The way you describe yourself is fairly common among asexuals.

Welcome to AVEN.

You do not need to have 0% sexual desire/libido to be classified as asexual. And don't be afraid to use the term to describe yourself, no one will be offended. All that aside, you definitely sound asexual to me, so welcome to AVEN :D :cake:
