I have a question about asexuality.


Recommended Posts

Ever since I was growing up, I knew I was straight, but a few days ago, I started questioning my orientation. I know asexual is when you don't feel sexual attraction toward someone and I have been recently thinking that I don't get turned on when I see a cute girl walk by, like, there's nothing that happens at all. For awhile I used to get turned on by pictures of porn, but now I feel nothing. So the question is: am I asexual? Follow up note: I imagine and am fine with cuddling and physical contact.

You might be, but the only one that can decide that is you. You could just have romantic attractions toward people, but it's hard to tell. Sure, some sexuals could get turned on by just seeing any cute person but that's probably not the case for all of them. My best advice would be to try to classify any attractions you've had and then based on that determine if you're asexual. Basically, don't worry if you think you're miss labeling yourself. Just say whatever you think fits you, because you can always change youre mind at any time.

I replied to your other post "Asexual?"

You're either asexual or very confused. You might be demi-sexual when you are sexually attracted only when you find your "special one". If there is someone you are in a relationship with for a while and care a lot about (considering you're not too young) but you don't desire anything more but romance (kisses, cuddling) or nothing at all, then you are asexual. If you're not there yet, I'm afraid you can't really tell. But in my opinion if you're not asexual you might be demi-sexual which is also wonderful :)
