CookieMoo Posted June 23, 2006 Share Posted June 23, 2006 oo. That was amazing. I never got a chance to watch any of the segments, as I don't have cable, and havent really had internet for quite some time. But yeah, thank you so much for putting that up so they're available for all. ^_^ Link to post Share on other sites
Kassil Posted June 23, 2006 Share Posted June 23, 2006 I thought the expressions on the guy's face in the Tucker Carlson one were rather amusing. You can see the gears grinding in his brain. Link to post Share on other sites

owen. Posted June 26, 2006 Share Posted June 26, 2006 Ugh, I just started watching these. And most of them are highly annoying. "There's a number of reasons why a person might not be interested in sex, ranging from low testosterone to early childhood trauma." "A large proportion of these people, who are going on these websites and now identifying as asexual are just looking for an answer, when the answer may lie in therapy!" Asexuality is "abstinence forever" ?? I guess it's a hard thing to get people to understand. Part of the problem too is that asexuals themselves take different meanings for the word. David Jay and some others really have no interest at all, and say there isn't much choice involved at all. But then there's others like myself who take a more diluted version that's more about sex being unimportant for a relationship, but still might experience some level of attraction or desire, and choose or not choose to act on it. It just seems like it's easiest for people to understand if you put it out there to people as simply having a lack of attraction, but it's actually more nuanced than that, and it can alienate part of the community to take that definition. The whole thing with Victoria in the 20/20 segment kind of shows how that's a weakness for the movement as well, because if you take the extreme definition than anyone that doesn't match up to it is fodder for the media and skeptics to say "ah, see, there's no real asexuals". I don't know. It just seems like it's a lot harder to put in front of people than more simple orientations like homosexuality. Link to post Share on other sites
Charlieee Posted June 26, 2006 Share Posted June 26, 2006 While a lot of the people are saying some things that aren't very true/nice/good, at least they're paying attention. As they say, there's no such thing as bad publicity... Now that the topic of asexuality is in people's minds, we can start working to change their opinion of it ^__^ Link to post Share on other sites
Hu Posted June 26, 2006 Author Share Posted June 26, 2006 Exactly, Charlie. Many of us felt a bit uneasy when we saw these the first time (The View made me queasy), but they do the job. The eye of the media isn't kind to anyone, but a heck of a lot of people can see us through it. Link to post Share on other sites
owen. Posted June 26, 2006 Share Posted June 26, 2006 Yeah, I think it's better for other people to see than for us to. All it does for me is makes me wince :P Link to post Share on other sites
AotoSora Posted June 27, 2006 Share Posted June 27, 2006 The interviewers make me laugh...they keep asking the same questions over and over. Link to post Share on other sites
owen. Posted June 27, 2006 Share Posted June 27, 2006 They just try to be dramatic, to "shock" people :P "So you REALLY don't have an interest? REALLY not at ALL? Are you SURE? Well *I* sure have a libido, so it's just WEIRD that you don't! Doesn't everone think these people are weird? They really are!! OK, roll commercials, we don't make any money from programming alone!" Actually, I just got to The View one. That one's quite a bit better than the others. Link to post Share on other sites

Brodertun Posted June 28, 2006 Share Posted June 28, 2006 Sorry to disappoint, I guess. What were you expecting? a soft voice, not such a deep one. Though I should note that everyone always has completely the opposite voice of what I imagine. Link to post Share on other sites
Charlieee Posted June 28, 2006 Share Posted June 28, 2006 Aha, I finally got around to doing it! If you were to go to my Myspace, and scroll down to the "Heroes" section, you'll see three of the AVEN-on-TV clips from Youtube ^____^ Link to post Share on other sites

Charlieee Posted June 28, 2006 Share Posted June 28, 2006 To my Myspace, as in the Myspace belonging to me, where I have put the clips under the Heroes category, where I originally had that French boy band that I moved up to Music...
