Greetings!!

[Apus]

Hello, my name is Kayla. I've known for awhile that I was asexual. I denied it for a couple of years. When I learned demisexual is in that sprectrum of ace things fell into place. The more I hear about sex, the more repulsed I get. Though I'm homoromantic and that's been clearer for far longer than being ace. 

 

Right now, I'm trying to figure out how to navigate these waters of being asexual. It's hard. I'm the leader of my schools lgbt club and I still see so much ace erasure within the lgbt community. Not on purpose. I want people to know that not everyone is sexual without telling them to stop talking about sex. I don't know how to say that. 

 

Part of me is also really curious if I'm romantic or not. Relationships are so confusing. I'm just trying to do more research into the whole ace spectrum. 

 

Advice and support are much needed.

Welcome Kayla! Why not have a session during the club to educate them on asexuality?
