A-ok Posted January 16, 2017 Share Posted January 16, 2017 So the other day I was watching a video by Ash Hardell about sex and her struggles. She is pansexual to my knowledge(?), but she mentioned how a relationship doesn't need sex to be healthy also mentioning asexuals. In the comments there were a thread of sex positive asexuals, I took part, some sexual people were interested in our view and everything was just great. I just love our community, and how we can be so open and honest. I feel like I've found a new part of the asexual community. Love yall <3 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I4vT9Kq1ugM&lc=z12rgtszmofkvxny404cfvlpkzrtvvtxigw Link to post Share on other sites
Ruru+Saphhy=Garnet Posted January 16, 2017 Share Posted January 16, 2017 Yeah, that is what I love about this community, too. So open,honest and diverse. Link to post Share on other sites
Caged Bird Posted January 19, 2017 Share Posted January 19, 2017 Feel we should make this into a proper sex-positive thread... Or is there already one of them, there probably is Link to post Share on other sites
dragon_nerd Posted January 20, 2017 Share Posted January 20, 2017 Hmm, this should be one! Unfortunately many sex positive people don't realise that if they want to fight for people to have as much sex as they want, they should also fight for people to have as little sex as they want too.

Joe the Stoic Posted January 20, 2017 Share Posted January 20, 2017 How do you know if you are sex-positive, if you haven't slept with anyone? =/ Link to post Share on other sites
borkfork Posted January 20, 2017 Share Posted January 20, 2017 One can be sex-positive and never have sex. Quote To me, sex positivity has always been about two things: 1) affirming that sex can be a healthy part of human life that shouldn’t be shamed or stigmatized, and 2) affirming the choices others make regarding sex, even if those choices are different from the ones we would make (as long as those choices are consensual). And by the way, the “healthy part of human life” part doesn’t mean it has to be part of every human’s life[...] Source The sex-favorable thread, now referred to by some as "cupiosexual" is here.

Nothing about having sex in there at all. Link to post Share on other sites

Nope, it's a feminist movement well outside the asexual community that began in the early 1980s . You're thinking of "not sex repulsed." Link to post Share on other sites

carbomb Posted January 21, 2017 Share Posted January 21, 2017 I'm completely fine with others having as much or little sex as they wish. But once the concept of sex involves me, I'm completely un-fine with it. Link to post Share on other sites
