Guest member25959 Posted March 13, 2013 Share Posted March 13, 2013 Coming from this recent thread, which discusses AVEN's climb on the internet rankings in the past decade, what it also does is links back to articles that link to asexuality.org. Many of these are obscure languages, so they've never been mentioned on AVEN, I thought it'd be nice to give them a mention... or an index, plus I like languagesA lot of these are forum topics, or blogspot posts. A huge disclaimer for the foreign language posts... I'm not entirely sure if any of them have any offensive content, only that they mention and focus on asexuality for the particular postEnglish (Some of these may have been mentioned on AVEN at some point) "Asexuality" The Student Room, UK - Wiki article explains asexuality " Asexuality & Relationships" City Data, United States "Asexual Isn't Anti-Intimacy" The Dish, UK/United States "Asexuality: An Ideal Future?" Ted.com, Canada/United States - "Ideas Worth Spreading", apparently "Asexual Awakening" Sunday Morning Herald and The Age, Australia Various articles on Scoop.it, United States "How to Be Asexual in a Sexual World" Squidoo, United States "Is It Possible That You're Asexual?" The Stir (CafeMom), United States An article available in (US) English, French and Spanish. Kioskea, France - Primarily a computing community "Drama Mamas: Sex Talk" Joystiq, North America/Europe - Mostly humourous game-focused article, mentions asexuality and AVEN "Not Everybody Wants To Talk About Sex" Jezebel, United States - Jezebel has produced articles on asexuality before, and we've even subsequently discussed them on AVEN, but I've never seen this one before... "The New Stigma: Asexuality" Newser, United States Croatian "On, ona ili ono: Upoznajte "bezrodnike"" Index (Black), Croatia Czech "I bez sexu se da strastne zit" Novinky, Czech Republic - Article no longer available, check Wayback Machine archivesFrench ""No sex": faire l'amour est-il vraiment indispensable?" Huffington Post (Francais), United States German "Asexuell: "Es gibt 1.000 interessantere Dinge als Sex"" Jolie, Germany - This website mainly focuses on fashion "Asexualität" Spiegel, Germany - No longer available? I'll check it out on Wayback Machine... A post on Geizhal's forums. Geizhal, Austria - Technology community in German "Asexualität in der beziehung" Gutefrage, Germany - Blog-type post discussing personal experience with asexuality "Das merkwürdige Verhalten geschlechtsloser Amöben zur Paarungszeit" Suededeutsche, Germany "Ich habe einfach kein Verlangen nach Sex!" 20 Minuten Online, Switzerland "Keine lust auf sex - frigide??" Brigitte, Germany - Supposedly the largest women's magazine in Germany, this post on their forums discusses asexuality "Können Asexuelle sexuell erregt sein?" COSMiQ, Germany - Sort of like Yahoo!Answers in German "Mann ist glaub ich Asexuell!" Urbia, Germany - Family-orientated forums "Sex? Nein Danke!" Tages Anzeiger, Switzerland "Wenn Menschen einfach keinen Sex wollen" Die Welt, Germany Greek "Εφιαλτικό: Τα άφυλα παιδιά" Blogspot.de, Greece/Cyprus/Greek community - Personal blog, discusses Gender Neutrality? Links to AVEN and AsexualNewsHungarian "Még sosem akartam szeretkezni senkivel. Kik az aszexuálisok?" Femina, Hungary Mandarin "他们真的是无性恋吗" Guokr, China (PRC) - Focuses on the recent House episode, yeah that oneRussian "Асексуалы" Lurkmore, Russia - Russia's equivalent of Encyclopedia Dramatica, so yeah...Serbian "Imam 29 godina i mrzim seks!" Žena (Blic), Republic of Serbia "Želite seks, ali ne sa sopstvenim partnerom, s kojim pri tom imate de" - b92 (forums), Republic of Serbia - Brief mention of asexuality in a topic that focuses on sex Spanish "¿Cómo es la vida de un asexual?" BBC Mundo, UK - Spanish version of this article "¿Quién dice que no se puede vivir sin sexo?" El Mundo, Spain - Blog-type post "¿Asexuados o negacionistas? El caso Bowles El Pais, Spain - El Caso "El principio de mediocridad sexual" Menéame, Spain "Los que viven sin tener sexo" Taringa!, Argentina And those are just a selection of blogs and articles that link to AVEN, that I found in the top 100 recent results on Alexa's rankings, most of them I've never even seen mentioned on AVEN before now. I've left quite a few forum thread links out, since the forums or threads are unrelated to asexuality and only mention asexuality in one single post 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
