marle35 Posted October 31, 2003 Share Posted October 31, 2003 I understand that some asexuals are not attracted to anybody but have a sex drive. I understand that some asexuals have romantic longings and some don't. I understand that some asexuals who have romantic longings are attracted to a certain gender and some aren't, but... Can anyone give me rough PERCENTAGES based on what they know about asexuals and each of these things? Link to post Share on other sites
Cate Perfect Posted October 31, 2003 Share Posted October 31, 2003 There are polls about that somewhere on the forum. About what sort of asexual and how you identify (gay straight bi or other). Cate Link to post Share on other sites
marle35 Posted October 31, 2003 Author Share Posted October 31, 2003 Do I click on random topics to see if there is a poll or is there a shortcut way to find where the polls are? I haven't seen a poll off-hand yet. Link to post Share on other sites
Cate Perfect Posted October 31, 2003 Share Posted October 31, 2003 It'll say [poll] in the title of the post. Cate Link to post Share on other sites
Jayann Posted October 31, 2003 Share Posted October 31, 2003 How funny you should ask. Seems ApolloSeek just made one such poll. It made be found here: http://asexuality.org/discussion/viewtopic...1660&highlight= An wasy way to find polls is to go to the Search option at the top of the page, and enter "[poll]", making certain you have "Search topic title and message text" and "Display results as Topics" selected. All the threads with the word [poll] in their titles ought to pop up. Link to post Share on other sites

Worthless Poster Posted October 31, 2003 Share Posted October 31, 2003 No offense... but I feel like I'm being interrogated or in a weird sexuality-zoo exhibit or something... :? Link to post Share on other sites
Gorax Posted November 1, 2003 Share Posted November 1, 2003 Zoos are good! As long as no one tries to pet me through the bars, or they will lose an arm. Link to post Share on other sites

marle35 Posted November 2, 2003 Author Share Posted November 2, 2003 Twice Upon A Star "No offense... but I feel like I'm being interrogated or in a weird sexuality-zoo exhibit or something... " I understand. But still, this is the Asexuality Q&A Board, isn't it? I think in these terms when it comes to my own characteristics, as well. I am a lesbian, and I am very interested in what percentage of lesbians are androgynous, butch, femme and a whole bunch of other things. I guess I'm part of my own zoo exhibit, too. It's just that if 98% of asexuals are one thing, and 2% are the other, then saying that "some asexuals are this, and some asexuals are that" doesn't really give you much of the true picture, does it? Not just with asexuals of course but with anything else. Link to post Share on other sites
Eta Carinae Posted November 2, 2003 Share Posted November 2, 2003 For the record, I'm not offended or bothered by the questions. Nothing wrong with curiosity, and part of visibility, IMHO, is answering questions people have about asexuality. Link to post Share on other sites
Worthless Poster Posted November 2, 2003 Share Posted November 2, 2003 Oh, I know. I wasn't implying I was offended or angered or anything. Yes, this IS the place for it. It's just kinda... akward... that's all! Not yet used to it.... Link to post Share on other sites
