Shit People Say to Asexuals... Anyone want to start a project w me?

[Flyin'Solo]

I really want to jump on the "shit people say" bandwagon and make a hilarious video about the absurd and comical things people say to asexuals.

"Asexual?... does that even exist?"

"Asexual?... that doesn't exist."

"So do you masturbate?"

"It's okay, you just haven't found the right person yet."

"So do you masturbate?"

"So are you into animals then?"

"What, you think your pussy is made of gold?"

"So do you masturbate?"

and my personal favorite... the passive aggressive eyeroll/sneer.

etc.

Y'all know the rest. Anyone in NYC interested in helping? Anyone from afar interested in uploading clips? Please hit me up ASAP, before this lightning bolt of a fad has passed!

Or send me something fun at angryace(at)yahoo.

Gracias!

"Everyone's asexual at some point, and then they grow out of it."

[robintamblyn]

ACE=Asexuals Can't Exist... :twisted:

[Cent]

"I just don't think you've had it done right yet."

"Can't you just enjoy it?"

"Do you masturbate?"

"Are there others like you?"

"Are there many people like you?"

"But... do you masturbate?"

"That's not an orientation, that's repression."

"Were you abused as a child?"

"You've just had bad partners."

"Have you talked to a doctor about it?"

"So, do you masturbate?"

[Janus the Fox]

Asexuality is just an excuse not to do it

You just did'nt do it right

Dont worry, the doctors will fix you in no time, you will feel differently after treatment (for my own medical problem)

HAHA... you are just a reluctant homo-bisexual!!

[Flyin'Solo]

Well, I was initially looking for people who wanted to submit video clips, but...

nevermind!

SwankIvy's already got it goin' on over in the Visibility Section:

[virginqueen]

"Do you have some sexual inhibitions?"

"Are you an introverted type of person?"

"Are you impotent?"

[Shiver]

If I lived in New York I would love to join ya in creating a Shit People Say video.

But if you do make it, please share it!

[Brynhildr]

"And how long do you plan on being asexual?"

[The Chaos Heart]

"It's okay, you just haven't found the right person yet."

Shit man. I get this all the time from my mother. Or things like "you only think you're asexual." She'll never learn it seems.

[Shaded]

"Asexual, like, asexual reproduction?"

<_<

[Chickenpede]

"That's a shame."

"So that means you'll never fall in love?"

"You're going to have such a sad life."

[Cadmium Poisoning]

'I bet you'd change your mind if you slept with me...' *wink*

:/

[*Orion*]

"You reproduce with yourself!?"

[Russ23]

"Bullshit" and "you don't like women?"

[LiteralNovice]

"You just say that to make yourself feel better about the fact you can't get anyone."

"Then how are you gonna be in a relationship?"

"You must be really lonely."

"But you masturbate!" (common among people that don't understand attraction vs. drive)

"The first time you have sex sucks. You can't just say you hate sex after one time/no times."

"So you reproduce with yourself?"

"But not enjoying sex isn't normal!"

"Something's wrong with you. A sex drive is essential in human beings." (once again, common among people that don't understand attraction vs. drive)

"You're just playing hard to get."

"It's just a phase. I just hope you'll get out of it soon."

"Asexuality is not a legit orientation."

"You must have really high standards if you don't think anyone's attractive."

"Have you tried talking to a therapist? They might be able to help your hang-ups."

"I respect your choice, but I can only pity you."

That's all I can think of, but all of these were probably said before.

Today I heard one quite disturbing:

"Have you tried Viagra? I think it can solve your problem"

[PSUtatiana]

"So what do you do for fun?"

[PSUtatiana]

And I live in NY and would LOVEEEE to help you with this!! I'm working as a journalist this summer and would LOVE quotes from you. Maybe I an write a story about this project :)

Everything I write gets published. Add me and let me know if you want to do this shindig!!! :)

[Alphaprocess]

"You mean you're gay?"

[NuavKaffe]

"Asexual, like, asexual reproduction?"

<_<

Hahahahhahahahahhahahahahh

That made my day :lol:

[little birdie]

"Sooo...your hand's your best friend then?"

"Are you sure it's not just a phase?"

"Wait...But you still have crushes..." People don't seem to understand the difference between liking someone romantically and sexually, because for most people, they kind of go together. *sigh*

[Sari]

With a little background on this one. I have had feelings for the same guy for four years. I recently told him I was asexual. A week later my friend M asks him if we're going out. He says no then later that night he comes to talk to me and says "I guess she just doesn't know how you feel towards others. Once she knew she'd find it obvious you don't 'like' people like that,"

*facepalm*

[Alphaprocess]

One I saw as a comment somewhere was:

(male) asexuals "should man up."

Now what does that mean? Indulge in behaviour they don't want to do? Sounds a lot like the people who want to 'cure' gay people to me.

'I bet you'd change your mind if you slept with me...' *wink*

:/

I hate getting that, it makes me wanna ninja kick them in the teeth.

[Kelsea]

"I have days when I feel asexual too."

[RowanBun]

"I think you have it mistaken. Only plants are asexual."

[Nemon]

"but if you really love me, you'd wanna have sex"

(answear:if you really love me, you wouldn't force me into having sex)

Then they get confused, maybe saying "so...does this mean we wont be having sex in a while?" or repeating the first argument..

[ethereal_energy]

"I am just like that sometimes."

"I went on a date that was completely asexual. No sex, you know."

They think they can use the label to mean a temporary state of not having sex.

[Guardian Healer]

asexual..."Isn't that were you split in half and create your own children?"

That one is my favorite.
