Naiad Daphne Posted September 19, 2013 Share Posted September 19, 2013 Hope this hasn't already been posted. I've been following Sexplanations on youtube for awhile now and have been really pleased with the way Dr. Lindsey approaches the multitude of topics surrounding sex and sexuality. She's finally done a whole video on asexuality and I thought I'd share it here for others to see and discuss. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WKJ_MZNv2GY I particularly liked her experience with the clergy panel and how she talked about the connections between sexual orientations, such that understanding all types of attraction helps to better understand human sexuality and where it is derived from. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mayve Posted September 19, 2013 Share Posted September 19, 2013 I liked that. :) She reminds me of a celebrity though. Don't remember the name of them though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Falconer Posted September 19, 2013 Share Posted September 19, 2013 What the hell is sexual sonar... Some people are able to accurately guess your sexuality just by being around you. They've done a number of studies on this and it is apparently an actual thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RD_the Posted September 19, 2013 Share Posted September 19, 2013 Dr. Doe has created and posted this video describing her own experiences interacting with asexuality and the asexual community. I thought it was a very interesting way to depart from what has sort of become the standard "this is how we talk about asexuality in the media" model. Check it out! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WKJ_MZNv2GY 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
5_♦♣ Posted September 19, 2013 Share Posted September 19, 2013 #4 made me cringe. Otherwise, it's a good video. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mezzo Forte Posted September 19, 2013 Share Posted September 19, 2013 Excellent video! It's definitely a refreshing video on the topic since most media is trapped in the "101" of the topic and don't seem to expand on it. Thanks for the link!

WhenSummersGone Posted September 21, 2013 Share Posted September 21, 2013 I liked the video but I would have liked it better if she said more of "lacking sexual attraction" as well as "lacking sexual desire/libido". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
