frustr8ed Posted February 2, 2008 Share Posted February 2, 2008 Are you disgusted at the thought of sex or are you indifferent? Link to post Share on other sites
Apollonian Posted February 2, 2008 Share Posted February 2, 2008 Indifferent. I'm not disgusted at the thought of sex, I just don't have any desire to engage in it myself. Just like I have no desire to engage in mountain climbing or bungee jumping. I'm not disgusted at the thought of those activities though. Link to post Share on other sites
Cynicus Posted February 2, 2008 Share Posted February 2, 2008 I'm not disgusted by the idea, talk, or description of sex. But i do turn away when it shows on the telly, so i abstained from voting because my choice isn't in there. Link to post Share on other sites
Gavroche80 Posted February 2, 2008 Share Posted February 2, 2008 I'm not really sure how to answer. I would say indifferent, but I'm hyper-sensitive to touch. I can't stand having someone touch me on the arm, so the thought of full body contact makes me shudder...it would feel like covering myself in corroded batteries. :shock: I don't like hugs, either. Then there are all the diseases that come along with sex....yuck (I have also never kissed, and will most likely never do so in my lifetime). I guess if you took all that away I would simply be indifferent....oh well. :roll: Link to post Share on other sites
Atalante Posted February 2, 2008 Share Posted February 2, 2008 I'm strongly indifferent, if that makes sense. ;) I'm pretty familiar with sex and kinks, it'd take some hard work to gross me out, and I could (and did) have sex... but it just doesn't do anything for me, and I don't experience sexual attraction in the first place anyway. I guess sex is just like cars in my book... Link to post Share on other sites
GreyCloud Posted February 2, 2008 Share Posted February 2, 2008 I am neither. In fact, I am intrigued by it. Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Posted February 2, 2008 Share Posted February 2, 2008 Indifferent. It doesn't bother me, nor offend me. I just personally prefer not talking about it, but if people around me are, thats not a problem to me. I've worked with truckers in the past, so i've heard it all. Never batted an eyelid. However, when someone is making sexual comments directed at me(I.e a woman making a sexual comment trying to hit on me), I tend to turn from indifferent, to extremely annoyed. Nothing will gross me out, though. That said, i'll quickly tune you out or ignore you, and walk away. Link to post Share on other sites
BaronTheCat Posted February 2, 2008 Share Posted February 2, 2008 Depends... So I didn't vote. Actually, sexual pics often make me wanna laugh. They look so stupid O.o Link to post Share on other sites
DavidG Posted February 2, 2008 Share Posted February 2, 2008 A bit of both - indifferent to it in general, repulsed at the idea of it involving me. Link to post Share on other sites
SuzH Posted February 2, 2008 Share Posted February 2, 2008 Indifferent. I don't care to have sex. In the past I'd be wondering what to make for dinner or if my work clothes were clean. I'm pretty sexuals don't have those thoughts during "the act". As a prelude I'd be wondering if it would be over before my favorite program came on the tv. Link to post Share on other sites

ThePieMaker Posted February 3, 2008 Share Posted February 3, 2008 More indifferent than repulsed. I'm indifferent in others having it, but repulsed by the idea of me ever engaging in it. Link to post Share on other sites

Sarafin Posted February 3, 2008 Share Posted February 3, 2008 I'm repulsed at the notion of engaging in it, but see it as interesting from an outsider's perspective. I've seen great works of art depicting it, and I find the symbolism beautiful. I just can't stand the idea of actually engaging in bumping uglies. -Sarafin Link to post Share on other sites
isillote Posted February 3, 2008 Share Posted February 3, 2008 I'm indifferent. Been there done that, and it was OK at best, boring most of the time. Looking at porn leaves me cold. I can talk about sex as much as people want, and am unshockable there. I just can't see what all the fuss is about, when there are so many other, more interesting things to do. It's not worth wasting time over, and if I feel obliged to do it then I actively hate it. Link to post Share on other sites
M51 Posted February 3, 2008 Share Posted February 3, 2008 Indifferent, and willing to compromise for the sake of a good relationship. But even though I may engage in it myself, I can't watch it. My head or eyes involuntarily turn away when I see sex scenes in movies - even kissing. I am slightly more tolerant of still photos of kissing or mildly sexual scenes but once the genitals are exposed I have a hard time looking. Interestingly enough, I can look at pictures of genitals that are academic in nature with no problem, or nude scenes in movie that are not sexual in nature (Schindler's list comes to mind, where the nakedness of the prisoners and corpses was essential to the portrayal but definitely NOT sexual). My brain definitely determines if the intent is sexual or not and filters based off of that. I can't watch cartoon/anime sex, either. Cartoons often times gloss over the genitals and make them less gross-looking, so I don't think it is the gross-ness of the anatomy that gets me but the act itself. I have always been asexual but my level of repulsion/indifference has changed over time. Prior to my marriage I was completely indifferent and could watch sex scenes and look at porn (though I had no reason to look at it other than curiosity). For a long time after my marriage ended I was repulsed by the idea of sex, sexual talk...anything. That gradually faded to where I am now, which is indifferent, willing to compromise...but I still can't watch it. I think my ex-husband screwed my brain up. I wonder if that will ever go away.[/i] Link to post Share on other sites

QueenOfSwords Posted February 8, 2008 Share Posted February 8, 2008 I'm indifferent. Been there done that, and it was OK at best, boring most of the time. Looking at porn leaves me cold. I can talk about sex as much as people want, and am unshockable there. I just can't see what all the fuss is about, when there are so many other, more interesting things to do. It's not worth wasting time over, and if I feel obliged to do it then I actively hate it. What Isillote said, although I don't actively hate it when participating. I am not really that interested but will generally 'go along for the ride', so to speak. And while looking at porn and watching sexual activities in movies leaves me cold (or completely grosses me out), certain types of written porn are quite nice. Must be something about imagining rather than seeing; I can gloss over the stuff I don't want to think about. QoS Link to post Share on other sites

rotifer Posted February 10, 2008 Share Posted February 10, 2008 Definately repulsed The idea makes me have goosepimples like a pimply goose Any mention of it sets alarm bells ring in my head saying "RUNRUNRUNWHILE YOU STILL CAN, GET YOUR SCICCORS OUT YOU POCKET IF YOU CUT YOUR PENIS OFF THEY CAN'T MAKE YOU DO IT" fortunately i don't say this out loud often Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Heligan Posted February 12, 2008 Share Posted February 12, 2008 Ive started writing a reply to this a few times. But its quite difficult to put myselfd in a category. Im getting more repulsed by sex on tv, but Im not sure if that is because the emotional content disturbs me in that I am finding it harder and harder to remember i used to see the connection between love and sex. Im indifferent to it, unless its suddenly an issue then Im repulsed. I dont wonder around going I hate sex, its vile... but faced with it its a definate yack reaction. Its certainly not something I could be indifferent to while it was happening. I didnt vote, Im too confused by all the if when buts in my explaination. :? Link to post Share on other sites
