I mean, not everyone thinks asexuality actually exists, and they're wrong too. Link to post Share on other sites

As far as a good definition of asexuality to get around the painfully inexact "not sexually attracted to anyone": Asexuals don't want to have sex with any other persons. I was joking because it was suggested before that it's the ability to find other people attractive in some way that makes someone sexual, not the desire to actually have sex with others 😛 Link to post Share on other sites

Except gray-asexuality isn't made up and has an actual meaning. But I see you're doing your hardest to be constructive. Link to post Share on other sites
Telecaster68 Posted November 9, 2018 Share Posted November 9, 2018 Some people on AVEN have heard the word, but I doubt you'll get a consensus about what it means from them. This is not the same as it having an actual meaning. Also, if you want to criticise rhetorical style, probably best not conclude your points by sounding like David Brent.

Telecaster68 Posted November 9, 2018 Share Posted November 9, 2018 No there's a wiki entry. If you can find me three uses of the term that don't refer back to AVEN or Tumblr, I might start to accept the term exists independently outside those places. Link to post Share on other sites

The wikipedia article has citations, you're using the very site that has the other wiki article, and you're posting in "The Gray Area, Sex and Related Discussions" with the description "Asexuality and sexuality are not black and white concepts; come here to discover and discuss the grey area in between, demisexuality, and all things related to sexuality and sexual identities!" But I guess your denial of these existing doesn't exist either now. I mean, this forum doesn't exist, right? Link to post Share on other sites
