Anonymous6 Posted July 20, 2017 Share Posted July 20, 2017 Okay so I'm 16 and I've never felt sexual attraction. I hadn't even known what sexual attraction was until I searched for it. Maybe it's because I'm too young. I've never fantasized about myself having sex with others. I usually fantisize about fictional characters having sex but it never involves me. Does this mean I'm asexual or I'm still immature? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I've just searched what autochorissexuality is and I think it fits me although I don't masturbate and the thought of it makes me really uncomfortable. And I'm a little confused. Are autochorissexuals considered as asexual? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

He wrote that it was a paraphilia, not an orientation/sexuality. I guess it wouldn't be impossible for sexual people to have the same type of third person fantasies, but I don't think that would be common. I can't find much info on whether sexual people can have this paraphilia. It's an interesting topic. https://www.reddit.com/r/asexuality/comments/5mh6mz/do_allosexual_people_experience/ The conclusion seems to be that sexual people can experience autochorissexuality, but they don't experience it exclusively, whereas asexual people we call autochorissexual don't seem to have first person sexual fantasies at all. P.S. Tell me if you can't read the chapter of Bogaert's book I quoted because of small letters or something. Maybe I can get it to you some other way. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I think now I understand things better. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
