repulsed before I got used to it, what does that count for? Repulsed I guess because I still really don't want to do it.

But then again I did force myself so repulsive feelings can come from that....

*not knowing*

I'm indifferent to sex as long as it doesn't involve me. I don't really care what other people do. But I become repulsed at the thought of me participating in it.

I voted repulsed, but only when it comes to anything relating to myself. if it's not directed towords me, I find it facinating.

I don't care what other people do in their bedrooms, but me and my gay boyfriend are going to cuddle, thank you very much.

Actually, I am absolutely fascinated by sex; I just don't want to have it myself! I love talking about, writing about, reading about it... Sex is very, very interesting but that doesn't mean I want it.

Hey, that's how I feel about religion, too!

I'm indifferent but incredibly curious and used to enjoy freaking my younger sister out by having frank discussions about sex with my mom. (Even though I never wanted to do it myself.)

But now we're all innuendo crazy. Mom brought home 2 huge zucchinis

One was wet and I said, oh mom already used that one.

"That's too big!"

"She's had two kids."

It's not to fit in with them, it's just fun to discuss it. I read a lot, so even though I've done nothing, I can still contribute.

Also, it's still fun to go, "Ew mom, you only had sex twice, you have two kids. Ipso facto."

We're immature.

Ehhh I'm sort of like... in between, and at the same time not, I don't really feel that I can vote for either option though. I'm not indifferent, I sort of want to have sex when I'm a bit older, but I don't know if I would be comfortable with it. A couple things I find disgusting and would not do, but I'm not like ARGH MY MIND when anything sexual comes up. So not absolutely disgusted/indifferent/disinterested, just... sort of interested, mildly disgusted in some cases, and uncomfortable xD

I'm pretty indifferent, I don't have any particular aversion to the idea of sex, hell I have worked in an Adult shop that often had porn playing all day, sex just does nothing for me personally. I never understood why people made a big deal about sex, so I tried it, and I still don't understand why people make a big deal about sex. To me it is neither desirable or affronting, it is simply boring.

I'm kind of somewhere between indifferent and repulsed. I certainly don't find sexual images remotely pleasant, and I tend to look away, but I don't feel as if I'm going to be sick (usually, but then again I've never seen anything very graphic). I'd just rather not see it. I'm about the same on the idea of me participating in sex.

The thought of sex is also somewhat fascinating to me, because I can't comprehend what is going through people's heads. That makes it feel like something I need to 'study' in order to understand, even though I know I have no hope of doing so!

Couldn't care less unless people just won't shut up about it, and even then it's more the kind of frustration that comes from being equal parts lost and bored.

I'm indifferent. Sex between other people is fine, it's just not something I want to participate in :)

I marked "repulsed" because I'm personally repulsed. Would have been nice, though, to have a third option, because while I think sex is nasty, I'm quite liberal about sex when it doesn't have anything to do with me.

I picked "indifferent". I'm completely comfortable with the idea of sex. I can take part in frank and open conversations about sex and watch pornography without having any adverse reaction at all. In fact, sometimes the idea of sex is quite appealing to me. That's just it, though - the idea of sex. I know from experience that the actual act is uncomfortable and does nothing for me. As time has gone by, trying to make myself physically participate in sexual acts (including kissing) has become distressing. But it's not something I've ever though of as repulsive.

Hmm, I'm pretty much indifferent, but I don't like sex scenes in movies/TV, or things that are too graphic in songs. xD Makes me kind of uncomfortable.

Erm, is there no middle ground? Or an 'other' option? :[ On nearly all occasions I am repulsed. Under very specific circumstances I am either neutral or even interested.

I think I would feel repulsed if I was actually involved, but I'm indifferent to other people doing it. Probably comes from being a shipper; by shipping, I more-or-less LIVE off of fictional sexual relationships xD

Ditto with above.

Except I know I am totally repulsed by anything that has to do with me, close to me or that pictures real people (i.e. movies).

I'm repulsed with the idea of MYSELF being sexual in any way.

As for anyone else, I'm just indifferent. It's their life and they can do what they'd like to. :)

I am COMPLETELY REPULSED and hate it SO MUCH. I also have genophobia.... Fun stuff being around obsessed high schoolers all the time. :/

Oh yeah, and it also caused my depression.

Indifferent

I won't vote since I'm not 100% certain if I am asexual yet...

but as it stands I don't find it disgusting, I'm pretty indifferent.

I voted repulsed. I can't stand the idea of anything going into my... area. Even thinking about it makes me want to throw up. But I'm fine with kissing (just not in an extremely sexual way) or cuddling. :blush:
