VinnyCrow Posted September 22, 2013 Share Posted September 22, 2013 Seeing too many people talk about the "tossed salad" thing and deciding to go ahead and look it up even before reaching the comment about how the urge is higher the more you're told not to. Assumed it wouldn't be so bad, only to end up unable to breathe and then laughing because there is no other way to cope. Notice that you're hungry after this. Eat something that happens to give you an odd after taste. Can't stop thinking of the "tossed salad" mental image. Laughing worsens. #AsexualProblems EDIT: Proceed to show your grey-A friend this thread. She looks up tossed salad despite you warning her not to. Laughing and crying overtakes both of you. Start to wonder more about "doggy style" and debate looking it up. So far you've pictured it as someone wearing dog pajamas with a hood that has floppy ears. You have a feeling that in actuality it has something to do with butts. #AsexualProblems 37 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Smudge1985 Posted September 23, 2013 Share Posted September 23, 2013 Proper lolled at the tossed salad reference! :-D I seem to be in the minority that while I'm not interested in sex, I'm surrounded by it enough that I can still make jokes about it and know all the innuendos! I think its just because I love how creative innuendos are, its amazing how many different ways we can think of to say the same thing! Mate of mine is a total perv and a group of us somehow got into a conversation about how much of a perv he was. Someone pointed out that he has a wank every day. He defended himself before yelling 'are you girls telling me you've never tossed your salad?' Proper crying with laughter! When speaking with a member of the opposite sex, all your friends slink away with excited grins on their faces as if you are going to jump each others bones the second your friends stop watching! #AsexualProblems 26 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Quintus Crinis Posted September 23, 2013 Share Posted September 23, 2013 So grateful I went on an orchestra tour with a conductor constantly making innuendos - fortunately he made a "tossed salad" joke.I regretted letting my curiosity ask the questions "you don't want to know the answer to" at the time, but at least I understand it now and don't run the risk of curiosity taking me to Google images (or similar). :)I just hope I've been generally curious enough while trying to rationalise my feelings under homo-/hetero-/bi-sexuality and hopefully understand enough not to let curiosity lead me away from verbal explanations - which seem so much easier to cope with than visual explanations. :) Spending years of your life ignoring the obvious answer to the question of sexuality and agonising over none of the options making sense. #AsexualProblems 5 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Smudge1985 Posted September 23, 2013 Share Posted September 23, 2013 Your friends swap sex stories and you have nothing to share when it's your turn. #AsexualProblems One weekend a year ago, me and my two best friends at the time all had 'dates', so got together on Monday night to discuss what happened. One of them had her new boyfriend come to stay for the weekend and she took great pleasure in telling us how they never left the house for 2 days and how many times they had sex in 2 days. One of the others had her boyfriend come to visit, they did the whole dinner and cinema thing, then got a room in a hotel and took great pleasure in telling us how many times they had sex. I went out with a guy Id met on a dating site, spent an hour or two talking about Italian horror films, then after he tried to kiss me when I went home, decided I didnt want to see him again. That sheer difference summed up in one weekend! 22 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Leftithian Posted September 23, 2013 Share Posted September 23, 2013 People not believing that you're asexual because you actually do get the sex jokes, thanks to spending too much time with your dirty friends. Your friend not believing you're asexual when you tell him it's the reason you won't date him, and he thinks you're just brushing him off. People wondering why you get antsy when your friends talk about who they had sex with, because you really don't want to hear about it. Having your family say you can't have an opinion on abortion because you've never had sex so you couldn't know the stress. Wow that became depressing pretty fast. My bad, I feel like this was supposed to be a lighter topic. OTL Apologies. 43 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Mezzo Forte Posted September 24, 2013 Share Posted September 24, 2013 Is that really a problem? I wish more people were too lazy to explain their sexual orientation. Actually I wish everyone would just stop giving a shit about people's sexual orientation. I did say it was forced, didn't I? :P Being asexual doesn't really give me problems, especially since the topic never comes up offline for me. I think people just assume I'm straight and don't bother me about it. The closest thing I've had was aromantic-related, and I couldn't even blame them since I didn't really give any context to my statement: "I'd gladly marry my work one day!" "Aw, that's so sad! I'm sure you'll find someone eventually!" 10 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

TheJaneWay Posted September 24, 2013 Share Posted September 24, 2013 Finding that the worst thing about university life is not the hordes of drunk people invading your flat, as you had expected, as having no one you know well enough to cuddle with beats it back to a close second. I'm not even joking; I never realised it was possible to crave cuddles before this point. #AsexualProblems Because that one is SO asexual. There are plenty of parties I could go to if I wanted to have sex. But a simple hug? I miss my friend :( She understood... Unfortunately she is also at the other side of the country, so. 36 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
