Elliot-loves-cookies Posted June 15, 2017 Share Posted June 15, 2017 "But sex is fun!!!" - yeah... and so is jogging (people told me so) but I hate it anyway. "Why do you say that person is hot?? I thought you were asexual!" - I am but I ain't blind. "I'm soooo in love!! I wanna kiss him/her and my tummy feels soo weird but soo good! Aw I can only think about her/him!!" - ok.. are you alright or.. I dunno... And the list go on and go... Link to post Share on other sites

songchick Posted June 16, 2017 Share Posted June 16, 2017 I tell people that I really like the sublimity of classical music, and that it takes me to places that are bliss. I used to think that relationships with people were like this too. When I told people that I'd like to recreate this dynamic in an intimate relationship, people got really confused. "You can't really do that with a person." Then I sort of got confused too. This isn't really an annoying thing that sexuals say per say, but...still a miscommunication of sorts. As for annoying things, it's bothersome when people try to do conversion therapy on me. Not working. No awareness either. Link to post Share on other sites

TheCatBehind Posted June 18, 2017 Share Posted June 18, 2017 I was rolling my eyes so hard when I was watching a movie with my bestie. There was such a sexually packed scene and I was so exasperated. Then she asked "Isn't that guy handsome?" "Nah, I don't see it." "C'mon. You can't tell me he isn't!" "I'm not saying he isn't, I'm saying I can't personally see it, but I know why you think he's hot, besides, I was too taken by the fact of just HOW extremely sexual this scene was–" "Says the ace." Shame I didn't say anything ablut how "I'm ace not dumb" or somesuch... I was too annoyed. Plus she was asking an asexual if the guy was hot. C'mon you, ffs! Link to post Share on other sites
Ace Spaceman Posted July 1, 2017 Share Posted July 1, 2017 "Are you gay?" -usually from ignorant straight men "You'll meet someone" -followed by my assurance that I'm not worried if or when I "meet someone" "You're a good looking guy, why don't you have a girlfriend?" -This one is flattering I admit, but still annoying to hear Link to post Share on other sites

Member119102 Posted July 14, 2017 Share Posted July 14, 2017 You are not normal But sex is too wonderful! You will go crazy with pleasure. How do you hate it if you've never had it? You will want it with the right person You're too hot to not have any interest in sex So no procreation? Are you a virgin? Ah, got it. It must be cause you are religious..(bitch what) Link to post Share on other sites

What about you tell your friend romantic and sexual attraction are not the same thing xD..And the former gives pleasure as well.

Guest Jetsun Milarepa Posted July 21, 2017 Share Posted July 21, 2017 I know this isn't related to asexuality, but here's a conversation I heard yesterday evening on a late shift while the manager was at tea break. R : 'That Caitlin Jenner ain't no woman, just a man dressed up' M: 'Well clothes are just clothes , aren't they? Any man can put a dress on. What do you think, D' D : 'I think it was a great publicity stunt - if you're connected with the Kardashians, you have to pull something rad like that to get noticed among them'. I stepped in at that point, asking them if they would like their penises removed so that they could get some attention. It fairly shut them up. I hope they reflected on what they said. Prats.

pRAk Posted July 23, 2017 Share Posted July 23, 2017 - "You just haven't found the right person yet" is really common. To be fair to all the people who've told me that so far, they didn't know I'm asexual. Even I myself didn't know because I only recently found out about asexuality. Everytime someone asked me "Do you have bf? (amazing how no one ever asked about a gf or anything, but that's another issue)" or "Are you a virgin? (why is everyone so interested in others virginity anyway?)", I could only answer no. And then they would just say (often in a condescending tone, but not always) "Oh, don't worry you'll find the right person" Now, for things specifically said to me when I came out to my sister: - Basically the "It's just a phase". Long story about herself only starting to have sex 'late' and how that didn't make HER asexual. - "That's just because of how mom raised us. As if every men would hurts us or rape us." - thank you very much, but I know that's not it. It's how I actually feel. And don't worry, I know that's not how the world and men work. - (my favourite) "You should talk about that with a psychologist" - nice going. At least you refrained from saying psychiatrist. But, so, everything's in my head and I just need to put my ideas in order, right? Or do you think I just read that asexuality exists that day, and decided it would be so awesome to claim to be one? (ed: I just re-read my comment and found that this could sound bad. I didn't in any way mean to imply asexuality is something negative. I identify as asexual and am happy with my orientation. It's just that I think it's a bad thing when anyone claims to be something they're not and they know it, specially if it's just to follow a fad or be different. That isn't good for anyone.)

Willgracefan Posted July 23, 2017 Share Posted July 23, 2017 From my sister: Well it's nice that you're just choosing to life your life to take care of mom and dad. Why just cause I'm the asexual sibling mean it's my responsibility to take care of the parents when they get to that age? Just because you have a family of your own, doesn't mean you can't take care of them as well. Link to post Share on other sites
winchester.kaz2y5 Posted July 23, 2017 Share Posted July 23, 2017 I get "oh you know there's like a pill for that right?" a lot which is just super annoying, but I try to remind myself those people are just ignorant most of the time not blatantly rude. Link to post Share on other sites
winchester.kaz2y5 Posted July 23, 2017 Share Posted July 23, 2017 oh or "haha so what, you're like a plant?" which my usual response is going into a long biology lecture on how plants can be sexual or asexual and how if they can say I'm a plant for being asexual they must also be a plant for being sexual.
