BlakeTheNightowl~ Posted July 15, 2019 Share Posted July 15, 2019 Okay so I was about 12 when this happened I was at a friend’s house and we were just watching tv then she changes the channel to Adult Porn and I just did not see anything exciting about it so I tell her to turn it off and she’s like “ oh no not going to “ and I’m there just like having anxiety and a panic attack and what not so Now that I’m older is this like a traumatic thing or just me overreacting cause every time a sex scene pops up I get terrified / anxiety / disgusted / (I skip the scenes ) by it so idk does anybody else feel like this ?

firebird8 Posted July 18, 2019 Share Posted July 18, 2019 So it could be that you have anxiety at seeing porn/sex scenes now because of the experience when you were a kid, and it could also be that you were so upset about it then because of being ace. Both could even be true. I don't watch much television but if I get to a longish explicit scene in a book I skip it (or skim if I think there might be a plot point). It doesn't make me anxious, just annoyed, but that comes the ace. Link to post Share on other sites
