and that it would block all sexual content. Even with safe search I still get porn

I solved this problem by writing my own word search that simply reads "DONUTSDONUTSDONUTS"...
Seems legit right?... I might even share some...

If there were clones of me ruling all the countries,the world would be in peace.

 

Only because all of us would be too stressed about another country attacking us back to attack anyone.

Minus the stressed out component, this would satisfy my anti-war and pro peace stance. ✌️

When you're listening to a news story that begins with something like "we're about to talk about sex stuff, so if you have kids in the room, you may want to escort them out", and then they go on to use all this sex vocabulary that you have to pause and look up just to be able to follow along with the story, 'cause you can barely understand a word they're saying...

 

If they had to tell you to escort your kids out of the room, does this mean that kids know more about sex than I do?

It's kind of funny you should say that. I seem to recall it being pretty improper to talk anything sex detailed on a news program, but just a few months back we had articles here about the "Porn Addiction" and how all young people in this country were involved in it. It seemed pretty groundbreaking in that they wouldn't have used to talk about that stuff, but I am not so sure I appreciated that significance considering I didn't really want to hear about it =\

"Have you tried masturbating?"

"Nope."

"Why?"

"Because I just don't want to?"

"How can you say that when you haven't tried at all?"

Oh, sheesh. The “you don’t know you wouldn’t like it until you’ve tried it” bingo. I’d ask them if they’d be willing to try 

 

Jumping from a plane, climbing a cactus, castrating a bear, eating 50 bhut jolokias, getting tasered, or having a go at boxing an ostrich.

 

Why not? Because some things are self evidently painful or unpleasant. Same for frickfracking and whatnot. You don’t have to do something against your nature to “prove” you wouldn’t like it. The fact that thinking about it is uncomfortable is sufficient proof to know you wouldn’t .

Yeah I hear this a lot, but about sex and French kissing.  I'm perfectly fine with masturbation, it's the sex and tongue kissing that I can't deal with because I think it's beyond gross.  I really don't feel that I'm missing out on either of those.  I enjoy being ace.  It's just insulting that others think I'm missing out because of my orientation.  That's like pitying a gay person because they aren't straight and "enjoying" hetero sex.  SMH 😑

You totally get me! 

But sadly, they don't. They belittle thinking so much, I can't. I just can't. I wish I could tell them to jump off an effing cliff. But idk, I feel so oppressed because people like I are really very less in my place.

You totally get me! They think I'm missing out on something "amazing". Like hell no I enjoy being asexual. I'm demisexual and I'd want to try it with a nice person, a person I would know so well. And that too, it isn't even a necessity. These people should honestly piss off. I'm so glad I have people like me here!

Thanks ☺ I'm glad there are others like me as well.  Makes me feel less alone.  I'm a demiromantic ace, but recently I've been thinking about how it would be in a demisexual type relationship.  I'm starting to wonder if I could have sex under the right conditions with the right person.  It's all a theory at this point since I'm the legitimate definition of kissless virgin.  I've never desired sex but I do desire a physically intimate, romantic relationship.  I do experience sensual attraction.  The issue is a lot of aces don't like cuddling or anything, and that makes it difficult to find a suitable partner.  Sexuality and identity are complicated.  *sigh* lol

Being intimate and anything more than friendly with anyone is so foreign to me that it’s hard to be open to the idea of me being anything other than aro ace. It’d be like something out of a poorly developed love story if I suddenly had some sort of romantic interest 😅. Even though I’m a real person, it’s so out of character that I can’t help but feel an inherent...aversion, I guess? Not really a strong dislike but the concept seems off to me. I’ll won’t say it’s impossible, but the chances are low.

When my friends see me talking with a guy and immediately think I want him to be my boyfriend

Someone drove hooting at me, came back around and stopped their car in front of me, just to hit on me.

People like that make me nauseous.  I'm sorry that happened to you.  smh

 

One of my biggest comforts as a masculine presenting afab person is I get to fly under the radar so men don't bother me.  My more feminine female friends get harassed daily.  It's sickening.  I loathe this society.  😷

I was talking to my grandma today and during the convo she asks, "I bet your mom doesn't want you to have a boyfriend." (my mom is super strict and tried (keyword: tried lol. I still kinda sorta dated anyway but found out I didn't like it so meh) to stop me from dating when I was younger, and still acts "weird" when I have male friends). Then she says, "You should really have a boyfriend by now. I think it will make you happier to have one. Boyfriends make you happy. You'll meet him one day soon. You have a good job, you are nice to look at,  etc etc... You'll have one soon." I was just dying on the inside the whole time she was talking to me and repeating, "yeah... yeah..." x10 because I didn't have it in me to tell her how I really feel. Every time I talk to her I feel a lot of pressure... I really don't believe a partner = happiness, but I do understand that my grandma probably just wants me to find someone nice since my parents have been something else over the years, but I already have found happiness within myself honestly. Some guy can't make me any happier than I am now.

 

I think though she thinks my mom is stopping me from being with someone, when that isn't the case at all... I could go behind her back just like I did in high school and at this age I am now even though she still acts weird she never tries to stop me, but I just don't want a relationship, and I wish I could tell my grandma that without her thinking, "your mom messed you up!" or anything like that :(  Some people just don't want to be with anyone just because.

My problem is that I’m cynical and overtly less socially active, so people think I’m too negative or reclusive and that I need to begin a relationship to “fix” those problems. Like someone needs to save me from myself or some BS. And then, whenever I say I’m “not interested,” I get told it’s just cause of my attitude and that’ll change. I’ve even gotten a lot better over the years, and I’m actually pretty good at talking to people now; but I still rarely get told I need to drop X habit (usually video games cause a bunch of older people somehow think they make you asocial; ummm...how about NO 😡😡😡) or change Y trait all to find someone that’ll cure my “problems.” I haven’t had to deal with this in a long while but holy moly it makes me want to slug the person who lectures me in the jaw.

Well, I don't feel the need for violence but I getcha. This is a really common thing, people think you just need some push to grow up and go overpopulate the world some more but really, they don't actually know who you are, so they can't speak for you.
They give up eventually XD

I have most of my social interaction in gaming so that would cut off my social life.

 

I’m glad I have rarely heard anything about getting a girlfriend, not since before I left for uni, but the odd comment about attractive females makes me a bit uncomfortable when kind of directed at me.

 

I went back home for a couple months last year as I was moving to another place between the academic years and my brother, dad and I sat down to watch a film.

It was Spiderman 1 which I haven’t watched in years. In the rainy scene he just says “Look at those headlights” and I just get a bit uncomfotable in case he turns to me as I was just not interested. My brother knows I’m ace and that’s about it.

 

It isn’t something that gets said often but it seems wierd to me to talk about that stuff in a film to other people.

Whenever romantic/“sexy” stuff happens on screen at a movie, one of my best friends and I both visibly cringe. It’s so awful sometimes. My family tends to think it’s really awkward too.

I usually cover my face with my hands as I just can’t bear watching it, feels so awkward.

This! Or if I’m not in a movie theater, like I’m watching movies at someone’s house or what have you, I play on my phone. I’ll check Aven or scroll through pictures or something else, but it’s a good distraction.

 

if I’m in a movie theater I’ll stare at the floor, or occupy myself with shaking the ice in my drink or something {I know it doesn’t magically create more drink, I just feel like I get more beverage if I shake the cup 🤷🏻‍♀️}.

I just avert my eyes and wait for it to be done. If I can fast forward then I tend to. I always wondered as to why some sex scenes have so much dialogue in them. Do people really talk that much after/during sex?

I don't even like watching the mating scenes on nature programs.  Why can't they just say the lions went off by themselves to make little lions...why do the cameras have to follow them?

Right?! Sexual reproduction is just absolutely disgusting and repulsive. It is only less so in nonhuman animals, but it is still vomit worthy.

 

Would that everything budded like plants!
