Am I Sexual? Why can’t I find a sexuality I fall under?

I get turned on, masturbate, watch/ read porn fantasize. I’m attracted to females and males But when it comes down to it, I can make out but sex, oral sex anything relating to genitalia is disgusting. I don’t like breasts or anything. I like the parts of porn leading up to sex, but the actual sex is a turn off. Whether I’m in love or not. I just don’t like sex, but I still like the idea of it and that seems to throw me outside of the categories from everything I’ve read online. Where do I fit?

i'm still sorta new to this but i think you're asexual. many asexuals get turned on and masturbate, but they don't like sex.

because you like the idea of it, though, i think the term for this is "sex-positive". so a sex-positive asexual?

just keep in mind that you don't need a label, don't let labels define u, experiment and go with whatever's comfortable 4 u :)

it sounds like you might be a sex-positive biromantic asexual. everyone has varying levels of comfort regarding physical intimacy and it seems like your comfort zone ends right before sex. being asexual is just simply not being sexually attracted to specific people, like not thinking about any one in particular in a sexual way. you can still enjoy other forms of physical intimacy, none of which affect your sexual orientation, whatever you discover it may be. however, suppose you eventually decide that you don't need to label yourself and are comfortable being just who you are. that's fine and no one has the right to force you to label yourself. best of luck!

@Aceandanxious You could be a Biromantic Asexual.

Asexuality is not a lack of libido, but a lack of Sexual Attraction, which I define as leading to the desire to have sex with someone.

Meaning an Asexual can experience Arousal, watch porn, and masturbate, but if what you're feeling doesn't lead to the desire to have sex with the person you're feeling it towards, then it's not Sexual Attraction, even if it's arousal.
