TOPIC QUESTIONS FOR THE THREAD:
>have people given you shit for being Ace?
>favorite ace characters, go

>What is asexuality?
Lack of sexual attraction.

>Am I asexual?
Do you experience a lack of sexual attraction as described here http://imgur.com/pdIxHYc ? Congratulations, you're in the club.

>Where can I find my qt3.14 ace bf/gf?
We have a map: https://www.zeemaps.com/map?group=1764048
Because the term of "asexuality" is still quite new and there's a very pretty small population (~1%), there aren't that many sites for only asexuals.

>Do you guys masturbate?
Some do, some don't.

>I want to learn more/still don't get it

is being interested in fetishes but not "sex" still grounds for being ace?
>>
>>8054712
Technically I guess not..? But I mean in a less strict sense, it could be argued so. What kind of fetishes?

I mean they are all over the board but in general they aren't anything directly sexual from s&m to weight gain, my taste is pretty broad. I just never desire anything sexual, if i had a partner who did any of that sort of stuff with me i would get turned on, so I guess that is the basis for my question.
>>
>>8054712
Asexuality is not being sexually attracted to other people. Being turned on by a fetish but not a person still fits that definition.
>>
>>8054712
Technically, it's a paraphilia so you're fine.

Hey /acegen/, would you ever date someone who isn't asexual but just has a low sex drive?
>>
>>8056590
I'll date anyone, regardless of their sex drive, as long as I don't have to have sex with them.
>>
>>8056590
Would I still have to have sex with them? Is so, that could cause major problems since I'm repulsed. I know some ace people would be okay with it but I myself couldn't.
>>
I have a friend suggesting I make try tinder. Should I start the bio with "first off, I'm asexual"? What else?
>>
>>8057656
If you are a woman, don't do this. Men will just see it as a challenge and attempt to convince you that their dicks are magic and will change you.

And honestly, I'd avoid tinder altogether. It's basically implied to be a hook-up app.
>>
>>8057656
try christianmingle.com
they are known for being anti-sex before marriage so you are more likely to find someone who isn't just looking for a hookup
>>
>>8058131
this

this entire thing

Most people will just see it as "I haven't had sex right yet" and tindr is literally just a hook up app
>>
>>8058131
I'm male, so I'm probably okay on that front?

>>8058131
>>8058174

>>
>>8061406
Sapiosexual I think
though that one might just be intelligence in general and not relative to yourself
>>
>>8061406
>>8061416
The hilarious thing is that "sapiosexuals" are all retarded and have a warped view of what intelligence actually is.

"omg, why can't I find a girl to talk about *science* and *books* with?"
>>
>>8061444
>a warped view of what intelligence actually is.
>*science* and *books*
yes because shoes and clothes are just as intelligent. /s

Fucking asexuals, when will they learn.
>>
>>8060045
I don't, my friend is just pushing to make me one. She also planned to manage it herself
>>
>>8061485
Actually that is intelligent. If you could tell the difference between cheap fabrics and fake designer stuff, I would say you were intelligent.

Get out of here with that stereotypical bullshit.

You never "have to" have sex with anyone unless they're raping you. A lot of people feel obligated to have sex they don't want, for whatever reason, but that obligation isn't real. What is real is the obligation to not have sex that the other person doesn't want, i.e. the obligation not to rape.

>>8056590
Absolutely I would, and I would never have sex with them. If they bring it up, I'll be straightforward about the fact that they're never, ever getting any, and it doesn't matter if they want it because sex doesn't work that way; you both have to want it or neither of you get it.
>>
>>8061838
I prefer the term stawnon-binary.
>>
>>8062170
Does that have a flag?
>>
>>8062258
holy shit, someone make this flag.
I'm thinking of maybe the nonbinary flag but with yellow tones.
>>
>>8062094
What I meant with "have to" is "in order to maintain the relationship"

So basically "would I have to have sex with them in order to maintain the relationship"
>>
>>8062635
If they force the issue, that's their failure to maintain the relationship, not yours. Some things in life are okay to compromise on, but not this. Never this.
>>
>>8062654
...where did I say I was going to compromise? I literally ask "Will I have to have sex with them" and then I say that if that is a thing, then I will decline

You're talking to the wrong person if you want to have a little mentoring moment
>>
>>8054669
Am I ace if I'm 28 and I'm only attracted to dominant female wizards

I mean, I'm ace if the only thing I can be attracted to doesn't exist right
>>
>>8062710
If you'll decline, then you won't have to. How is this so hard to understand for you? Sure, they might break up with you if the relationship as a whole isn't worth it to them or if you don't teach them to think of sex as something other than a need, but no relationship is guaranteed to last anyway.

Does anybody else experience any social difficulty in being asexual? I'm happy for all the LBGT people who are experiencing a period of increasing tolerance, acceptance, and even representation. However as an "A" I still feel compelled to hide who I am for fear that others will consider me a freak.

>Pretend I don't see the people my friends want to ogle because its easier to feign blindness than it is to explain why I don't care
>Still a virgin. Don't really care, but others seem intent on "getting you laid" because virginity is only presented as a valid choice for religious people.
>Others mistake my lack of sex drive for childlike naivety and it comes off as insulting
>People tend to vilify those who lack a traditional sex drive and consider it as a symptom of trauma, illness, or deeper sexual perversion
>>
>>8063479
It's not really social difficulty to me. It's more of "fake it and hope no one realizes or else there's going to be some kind of talking that will cause you stress"
>>
>>8063344
I'm sure there's some religious girls that are 28 year old virgins
>>
>>8064020
religious girls can't be wizards anon
>>
>>8064096
they can if they're not super fundie
either way they're still virgins
>>
>>8063479
Basically what >>8063503 said
There's a lot of faking (or mostly just staying silent or passive) involved whenever one of my friends starts talking about how hot some girl is, or how hot some video game character is
I'm never going to bother "coming out" because that just invites more questions than answers, plus I've still got a level of uncertainty and don't need or want their input on it
>>

anons I dropped out of art school and even I can tell that it was made that way intentionally to reflect the character of the artist's inner landscape when they have depression. unbalanced or lowered levels of dopamine and serotonin cause a degradation of motor coordination and motivation, and in fact diseases like parkinsons are directly linked with a disorder in the production and reuptake of dopamine. they can't do art because they're sad, and because they're sad they can't do art. rather than flagellating themselves and hiding their emotional landscape the same way they hide from the outside world in their room, this hikki has turned it into it's own means of expression.

tl;dr version: you're not artists. you're designers.

it's literally one in the same

art can't be less important because it literally is art

>>
>>8073438
it doesn't have objective value. there are people who don't give a shit about design

>>8073453
Design is about psychological manipulation. Things in the top left get noticed first, colors evoke certain feelings, contrast ratios to make things readable, things like that. Whether people consciously give a shit about design or not is literally irrelevant. The same cannot be said of normal """art"""
>>
>>8073475
literally everything you just said can be applied to "normal """"""""art""""""""""""""" "

>>8073488
It's all design principles.
Design principles can be applied to art. Art does not inherently require design principles to be used.

the things you mentioned are inherent in art

>>8066640
I remember it very clearly, it was my big brother who did it to me

Except they're not inherent
People can make art without considering or utilising any of those design principles at all

try that again anon. They're not inherent and I explained why.
>>
>>8073629
except they are inherent

whether the artist chooses a certain colour or not doesn't matter when certain colours INHERENTLY evoke certain feelings
>>
>>8073657
If the artist does not consciously make a decision to do something based on design principles, they did not use design principles. Whether something incidentally adheres to design principles at that point is irrelevant.
>>
>>8073660
this isn't how things that are inherent work

if i add salt to a dish and go "i didn't mean for it to be salty" it doesn't make the dish not salty. my intent doesn't matter at that point. and no one's going to go "well it incidentally is salty, but that's irrelevant"
>>
>>8073683
Design principles are not inherently involved in the creation process of art
Design principles ARE inherently involved in the creation process of visual design

Analogies are not arguments

I have a friend that says he doesn't believe in love, and he's a bit overdramatic about it but we had a really weird chat about it yesterday and I think he might be aro.

I tried to explain the whole aromantic concept but whitout actually saying the word because I find it kinda stupid but maybe I should have so he could google it or something? I'm not sure I did a good job at explaining it, I wasn't ready at all.

basically children who have no concept of the history of the word think that because it's used as a slur at times, it's a slur so shouldn't be used at all. they've mostly replaced it with "gay" as a blanket term, which is hilarious because i definitely had the word "gay" thrown at me as a pejorative way more than i ever had "queer" lmao

Oh, my sweet summer child. You do not realize both how right and wrong you are.

What is a "meme" anyway? It certainly isn't "a picture with text added". A meme is basically a successful idea or notion, much like a gene.

Humanities default sexuality would most likely be bisexuality. However, a meme arose regarding how to ensure the survival of meme-collections (informally known as a "tribe"), every fertile human had to do their part to ensure that the memes get passed on to the next generation. Generations passed and science made it so that the infant mortality rate was near 0%, yet the meme of ensuring the continuation of the meme collection endures, because that's what memes do, they endure.

Now, if you have nothing new and interesting to say, please leave and never darken our threads again. Besides, isn't it a meme that those who complain the loudest about a sexuality tend to be of that sexuality themselves and severely repressing it?

No, because sexuality specifies both who you are and aren't attracted to. If you're attracted to no one, you have a sexual orientation, the only way to be without one would for your sexual preference to be undefined. And that would mean getting into quantum Schrodinger nonsense.

One of the core concepts and functioning principles of Radical Islam or Fundamentalist Islam is that all human beings must give absolute submission towards Allah and recognize the word of Muhammad as absolute law. They take babies and whisper this in their ears and they teach young children this with a combination of beatings and grotesque displays involving their female family members or slaves in the household. The literally beat it into them that say, women are the source of evil, or that all who do not submit to Allah are evil, and they wouldn't want to be evil right? They say these words over and over to them and force them to repeat them until it's ingrained into their psyche, until it replaces and supplants individual thought. Things just are because that's how it is and you need to accept it or you're evil and you shame your family and get your head cut off.

In western society this actually continues with the original, softer, Jewish form of brainwashing that conditions you to do your god damn job and pay your god damn taxes and be terrified of legal repercussions or police brutality if you step out of line. This is why Goldman Sachs can literally rip off all of America and face no consequences, you absolutely could just go and lynch them but you will never do it. Even if they destroy the livelihood of millions and billions, no one will retaliate at all. They'll try to litigate against them using the legal system that the Jews pretty much invented.

This is all written into the Talmud, in the Kabbalah, they have a spiritual justification that says only they have souls, and a set of explicitly described techniques to brainwash and deceive the populace and all the money they built up and started this banking system shenanigans with was built off of the slave trade, both white and black, which is also written in the Talmud.

The thing is, everybody is obsessive compulsive unless there's something wrong with them. Having all your stuff in perfect order, having your suit perfectly cleaned and pressed, having a partner that doesn't cheat on you, having your favorite meal and eating all the things in the order you like. All these things make people happy. As you grow up people see this and they get angry, and progressively break you of these preferences, once all your preferences are broken you become a perfectly normal functioning adult. You become perfectly dysphoric. The rest of your life then is a process of compensation and self-medication. Whites don't acknowledge or remember white slavery because it traumatizes them. The reason they don't flip out about it is because they get just enough money to put their shit in order and medicate themselves. People get hooked on drugs because they're so broken down that it's the only way they can push their pieces back into order.

Somebody violated you anon. You should be feeling indignation, you should bathe yourself in righteous fury and take back control of your world. But instead you rolled over and accepted it. You accept the idea that you were powerless to change it. You see someone like me who resists the irrationality that destroyed your life, and it makes you sick, because you remember your own defeat. You lash out instead of at the people who hurt you, at the people who haven't been hurt yet.

You are a perfect tool.

dude back in the day jews would kidnap white kids off the street, put them on a boat, take them over to muslim town, sell them, get a fresh load of blacks, sail back, and sell them to the christians.

This is literally why Hitler did it, because little virgin blonde girls were the most desirable product to sick Muslim fuckers who were indoctrinated with Islam where Muhammad told everyone that underage virgins were better than fucking your wife and if the girl was christian it was okay to rape and destroy her because non-muslims are like livestock.

What do you think is the reason why you feel this way? Family wouldn't be supportive? If there's a reason why you don't want to be gay it could very well be a tell for actual repression

>>8094020
>what could I be repressing
conscious sexual desire, I would think. It's possible that you're not actually biologically ace (if such a thing does exist), but due to some circumstance (which I won't pretend to understand) your mind is rejecting arousal on the subconscious level (so there's no conscious thoughts of sexual attraction) while your body still reacts to something you find sexually attractive in the normal manner
>>
>>8094351
>What do you think is the reason why you feel this way?
I'm almost 25 and still a virgin. I've had people interested in me over the years, but I never reciprocated. I feel that if I somehow become fully gay, I'd have to start dealing with a whole new host of anxieties about STDs, sexual performance, being behind the dating curve, etc., and of course in my current frame of mind, gay sex sounds pretty downright disgusting. Yet I still get turned out by anyone who's touchy-feely. It reeks of repression, I know, but I've tried to watch porn again and again over the years and I just don't get it.
>>
>>8094806
You do realize that you there's more to male and male sex than just fucking an asshole, right? I'm fucking ace and even I know that there's a portion that don't really enjoy anal sex. Some of it is just frottage or using hands/mouths.
>>
>>8094880
I'm not really sure if such gay guys actually exist, though. Everyone talks about topping or subbing and I've certainly never felt at home in any of the gaygens on /lgbt/. Sexuality just doesn't feel real to me like it seems to be for most people.
>>
>>8095064
you can literally just ask the gay thread next door about this stuff.
>>
>>8094806
meh regardless of if you're a ~true ace~ or not, you sound sex-repulsed, so does it really matter? you don't sound like you want a relationship that includes sex, so whether you're ace, grey ace, demi, allo, etc, does it truly matter? if you like the ace label, keep it.

fwiw, i don't think being aroused by hugs is weird. the human body is created to crave touch (which is why a lack of touch in babies can cause weight faltering and possibly even death) and we release feel good hormones through any contact, including hugs.

I don't think I know any character that's canonically, explicitly asexual. Maybe Hermes, from Kino no Tabi, but he's a motorrad (Note: A two-wheeled vehicle. Only to note that it cannot fly) so I don't know if it really counts.

I usually do a mumbled "it's complicated" to strangers or I will actually say I'm ace if it's someone I actually know and feel comfortable enough to say it.

It's only happened once so I haven't really found a good response to it. Random people don't tend to ask but the person who did was someone I kept seeing on public transportation.

I used to think the personal drama there was bad, but it's still better than the crapfest that is this thread where everyone makes bad jokes and ignores each other.
Anyway, tell me more about asexuality.

Do you wish you weren't ace?
Is it just that you fantasize about foreplay, kissing, caressing and such but have no interest in actual sex?
Did you only feel "down" when you found out, or is it sustainably lowering your quality of life?
How many of you still crave romance/love/touch?
Do you think your asexuality is hormonal/neurological or just psychological (trauma and such)? Why do you think it comes about? Do you have healthy T/E levels?
Did any of you use to be ace, but now have "normal" sexualities?
What's the proportion of ace men to women? 70/30?
Does your unused sex drive make you much more productive, as you redirect that energy to other things?

The FAQs don't address many of these and I just want to get to know you people. Thanks.

Answering for myself.

>Do you wish you weren't ace?

No.

>Is it just that you fantasize about foreplay, kissing, caressing and such but have no interest in actual sex?

A little bit

>Did you only feel "down" when you found out, or is it substantially lowering your quality of life?

The opposite, in fact. Finding out that I was Ace actually IMPROVED things. I still have to "surface" to my parents, but I'm fine otherwise

>How many of you still crave romance/love/touch?

I do.

>Do you think your asexuality is hormonal/neurological or just psychological (trauma and such)? Why do you think it comes about? Do you have healthy T/E levels?

I think mine was brought about via medication during my formative years. Some medications to treat ASD have the side-effect of "decreased sexual drive". I had been taking these meds since I was 10, which is coming up to 20 years now. Had a blood-test done a few years ago and I don't think they said anything about my 'mones

>Did any of you use to be ace, but now have "normal" sexualities?

Can't say that I have. What is a "normal" sexuality anyway?

>What's the proportion of ace men to women? 70/30?

Dunno. Men are not likely to be open about it and there's a perception that all women are at least grey-ace

>Does your unused sex drive make you much more productive, as you redirect that energy to other things?

Nah, it just means that we have more time to pursue whatever and not care if it detracts from our attractiveness. I mean, I know a straight guy who won't eat sausages because to quote him "it's the gayest food in existence". Now, this is a guy who, if he forgets to turn off his charm before bed, would most likely wake up covered in girlflesh.

Naw, you luv us~ Plus the people that get ignored are tend to just be people trying to get reactions. If you don't get angry and joke about, it doesn't egg them on.

>Do you wish you weren't ace?
Not really. There are some "oh woe is me!!!" people that come onto this general but it's mostly because they have an ideal life they want to live that's not what they actually are.
>Is it just that you fantasize about foreplay, kissing, caressing and such but have no interest in actual sex?
I don't really fantasize about anything. There's this weird disconnect in my brain where I imagine or ingest media but I don't really place myself in any role. I kind of feed off the emotions that the people have. Kinda like how people watch The Notebook or something.
>Did you only feel "down" when you found out, or is it sustainably lowering your quality of life?
No, not really. I used to deny it because it felt so off and "not right" but then I was talking to my therapist about some problems and then she basically said "hey, maybe you're not attracted to them" and then I was like "...o-oh... OH"
>>
>>8104217
>How many of you still crave romance/love/touch?
There's a pretty large portion that still crave that. Probably 70% have at least some kind of touch craving because that's just human and doesn't have to do with sexuality at all.
>Do you think your asexuality is hormonal/neurological or just psychological (trauma and such)? Why do you think it comes about? Do you have healthy T/E levels?
I'm assuming it's something like other sexualities where it's probably genetic where you're basically predisposed to be ace and then the environment around you causes you to express those genes in a certain way. But also the environment could cause it as well. Think of cancer or mental illness, if that helps. I haven't checked muh hormonez but there have been ace people who have done it and I believe there was dude here that turned out to be low in test. However, I personally believe that he thought he was ace because his sex drive was low and not the fact that he was actually lacking any sexual attraction.
>Did any of you use to be ace, but now have "normal" sexualities?
I've heard of people that were ace due to trauma but you can't really change this.
>What's the proportion of ace men to women? 70/30?
It's higher in woman but I personally believe that it's probably the same but due to the culture, there are men who do not recognize their lack of sexual attraction and instead just kind of use people as objects for orgasms.
>Does your unused sex drive make you much more productive, as you redirect that energy to other things?
Sex drive is still the same because ace people aren't just . Don't really spend that much time on dating sites so that goes straight into vidya or computer time for me since I'm a lump on a log.

>2600 line update method
This seems oddly specific.

>>8103967
>Do you wish you weren't ace?
Sometimes. Other times I don't care. Sometimes I realize I like myself the way I am and feel being attracted to people may be too distracting, but then again I wouldn't know how it would really be seeing as I haven't experienced it.

>Is it just that you fantasize about foreplay, kissing, caressing and such but have no interest in actual sex?
Hugging and cuddling. I don't care much for kissing, can't comment on foreplay because I've never done it but very probably not into it

>Did you only feel "down" when you found out, or is it sustainably lowering your quality of life?
Realizing what you are leads to momentary happiness as things have just clicked. Then it dawns on you that regardless, you're still broken.

>How many of you still crave romance/love/touch?
I certainly do

>Do you think your asexuality is hormonal/neurological or just psychological (trauma and such)? Why do you think it comes about? Do you have healthy T/E levels?
I don't know what 'caused' it. It just is and that's all that matters. I don't think it's hormones because I absolutely have a libido. Hell, I spent a solid three or four hours last night masturbating. Only came once though which is strange but that's TMI. I was just really horny for some reason. Point is, can almost guarantee my testosterone levels are probably fine. Just don't find anybody sexually attractive.

>Did any of you use to be ace, but now have "normal" sexualities?
Has a gay person ever become straight?

>What's the proportion of ace men to women? 70/30?
I feel it may be the other way around, or 50/50, who knows. Too few people to judge easily.

>Does your unused sex drive make you much more productive, as you redirect that energy to other things?
Refer to my three hour fap session. The answer is no. I direct it toward masturbating so that I'm not horny. Also direct it toward self hatred, especially while masturbating.

Oops, misread the fantasizing question so I'll reanswer that

>Is it just that you...?
It isn't just that I fantasize about it. I don't really much at all. I'll think about how much I could use a hug or how much I'd love to be cuddling someone (a non-specific someone) every once in a while, but it doesn't really hit the realm of fantasizing.

Okay, I guess that's a personal preference.

He doesn't like defining new methods to save a lot of time, does he?

Also, why that style of brackets. Why do people use that
>>
>>8103967
>Do you wish you weren't ace?

It would be more convenient if I were just a straight person. My mother is in that part of life where she is demanding grandchildren and I just tell her to buy some.

>Is it just that you fantasize about foreplay, kissing, caressing and such but have no interest in actual sex?

Sometimes, but I attribute it more to an unconscious desire for affection than actual sex. I'm actually kinda weird about touching and not used to physical interaction so I probably wouldn't even know where to begin as far as foreplay.

>Did you only feel "down" when you found out, or is it sustainably lowering your quality of life?

Actually when I discovered asexuality was even a thing I was relieved. Not only was I not broken but there were others like me, even if it were only a few.

>How many of you still crave romance/love/touch?

It all just seems like a lot of hard work and time consuming. I masturbate occasionally but the idea of have sex with an actual person doesn't do anything for me. I suppose it would be nice to be loved, but relationships are a lot of work and I do just fine by myself.

>Do you think your asexuality is hormonal/neurological or just psychological (trauma and such)?

Everything is chemicals when you get down to it, I guess. I don't think my asexuality is a result of any sort of PTSD. I'm just wired that way and I live normally. I regard myself as sort of a robot though due to my lack of strong sexual impulses.

Cont.

>>8104553

>Why do you think it comes about? Do you have healthy T/E levels?

No clue on either question. I've never seen a therapist or any sort of doctor about it. Its just something that has always been a part of me for as long as I can remember. Its never hampered my health, work, hobbies, or social life so I never really considered attempting to "fix it."

>Did any of you use to be ace, but now have "normal" sexualities?

Still ace, and will probably remain so. But I believe sexuality to be more of a spectrum than binary so perhaps asexuality is somewhere along that spectrum. I don't know though.

>What's the proportion of ace men to women? 70/30?

No clue. People still argue over what percentage the earth's population are LGBT. I doubt anybody will ever figure out the statistics of an anomaly like Aces.

>Does your unused sex drive make you much more productive, as you redirect that energy to other things?

Yes and no. The time I don't spend on relationships or pursuing sex is spent on other things, but not necessarily productive things. Instead of going out to the clubs downtown I'm more likely to spend my evening reading, watching movies, or even just napping. And the money I save by being single and not dating is pushed towards bills and other expenses to maintain my moderate lifestyle. However regardless of how I spend my time and money, it is spent on things I need and/or enjoy instead of other people so maybe in that way my asexuality makes me more productive.
>>
>>8103967
>Do you wish you weren't ace?
Nah, I'm fine with it.
>Is it just that you fantasize about foreplay, kissing, caressing and such but have no interest in actual sex?
I never fantasize about those things, though sometimes I'll think something like "I could use a hug" or "Cuddling w someone would be pretty sweet right now"
>Did you only feel "down" when you found out, or is it sustainably lowering your quality of life?
It was a kind of like "Oh, that exists? I guess that's me." I felt content that I had finally figured out my sexuality after years of asking myself "Am I gay, or not?"
>How many of you still crave romance/love/touch?
I sometimes crave touch, but I'm aroace, so I'mjust concerned with having friends to hang with.
>Do you think your asexuality is a hormonal/neurological or just psychological (trauma and such)? Why do you think it comes about? Do you have healthy T/E levels?
I doubt my asexuality is the result of any of that, I never did weird meds or had traumatizing sexual experiences as a kid. I'm sure those can definitely be the cause of some asexuality cases though (or at least be contributing factors). As for my testosterone levels, I'm pretty sure there fine considering my habit of near daily fapping, and how deep my voice is.
>Did any of you use to be acr, by now have "normal" sexualities?
Never heard of anything like that, except one person I knew who thought he was greyace (lel), but now identifies as bi. I'm pretty sure he was bi from the start and just wanted to be ~speshul. He was always pretty damn thirsty.
>What's the proportion of ace men to women?
Not a clue. Unfortunately, we likely won't get any professional statistics until our sexuality is widely accepted as real (unlikely to happen for a while).
>Does your unused sex drive make you more productive, as you redirect that energy to other things?
Probably not. I still fap frequently and most of the time I would spend with a partner is instead spent hanging with friends.

>Is it just that you fantasize about foreplay, kissing, caressing, etc, but no interest in sex?
yeah, lots of cuddling going through my head, and sex immediately turns me off.
>Did you feel down when you found out?
Nah. My friends thought it was cute that I dreamed of only cuddles and didn't want anything sexual.
>How many of you still crave romance/love/touch?
Always have, always will, if not even more now from the fun tranny pills.
>Do you think your asexuality comes from something?
Maybe? I was told that being a tranny could cause it but so far HRT has made me obsess more over cuddling and sex is still something I don't want.
My baseline was 1154 ng/dL T, 139 pg/mL E.
>Did any of you used to be ace, but now have "normal" sexualities?
Still ace, gonna stay ace.
>Whats the proportion of ace men to women?
Fuck if I know.
>Does your unused sex drive make you more productive?
I'm a lazy shit who can't stay awake whatsoever. I doubt a sex drive would do much cause I'd be too tired to actually do anything about it.

>>8104167
>Can't say that I have. What is a "normal" sexuality anyway?
I meant any sexuality except asexuality (you know, the same way atheism doesn't really count as a religion).
>I know a straight guy who won't eat sausages because to quote him "it's the gayest food in existence".
TRUE, processed foods are BAD for you and slowly kill you.

Then you can use it, it's called "transmutation of sexual energy". Newton and Tesla seemed ace and they achieved so much they must have been doing this to some extent.

> It would be more convenient if I were just a straight person
Most people have dead bedrooms (it seems), I think you could probably live a normal straight life and nobody would ever find out.

Pretty sure they were also autistic so that can't really be used as a way to say that since people who become successful only become such due to being in the right place in the right time.

They literally only do it for the attention.

They will even say things like "being ace doesn't mean that you don't have sex, sexual desires, or are sexually aroused sometimes", which shows you how much bullshit their joke "sexuality" is.

Sometimes? It'd be nice to fall in love, but I don't believe it's possible.
>Is it just that you fantasize about foreplay, kissing, caressing and such but have no interest in actual sex?
I fantasize a lot, yes. But anytime anyone has ever gotten close to me IRL I almost get angry. I don't like it, I don't want anyone touching me. It's almost insulting. Especially things like hugging or touching my hands. It feels like a lie.
>Did you only feel "down" when you found out, or is it sustainably lowering your quality of life?
Still struggling to accept I guess.
>How many of you still crave romance/love/touch?
I crave intimacy without intimacy. I don't get it either.
>What's the proportion of ace men to women? 70/30?
Don't know, but I am not male.
>Does your unused sex drive make you much more productive, as you redirect that energy to other things?
Normal productivity.

All I know is my interest in anyone romantically never lasts and it never reaches physical levels either, but what I'm really really fucking lonely for is a friend who won't leave once they realize we'll never be more than that
I'm so tired of it. I just want a legit friend. I feel like finding someone in that respect is even harder than finding someone to date.

What episode did the Ace guy become not Ace
>>
>>8112618
Not even ace myself but I was super disappointed when Jughead kissed Betty. Their romance feels really superfluous, it would have been a lot better as just a friendship imo
>>
>>8114423

From what I've seen as of the latest episode, Jughead/Betty is on shaky ground. Betty threw a birthday party after disregarding how Archie said that Jughead doesn't like parties or celebrating his birthday apart from going to a classic movie double feature. Jughead basically snapped and asked Betty if she really wanted to be in a relationship with him or was just waiting for Archie to claim her.
>>
>>8114806
Should I watch it?
>>
>>8114162
Episode 6 iirc, stopped watching the show since then
>>
>>8115112

I don't know because I don't know you and your tastes.

I was skeptical at first, so I thought I'd just watch the first episode. I'm somewhat hooked now, mostly so I can see if the writers plans to bring Sabrina Spellman in work. They brought Josie and her band and I'm sure that eventually, Kathleen Keen is going to show up as something fashion-related.

Thankfully, the OTHER popular comic that Archie Comics prints probably won't show up, unless it turns out that one of the science teachers is called Ivo Kintobor

Hopefully, by season's end, Jughead will work out that he's more interested in eating burgers than eating Betty.

(I know WAAAAAY too much about Archie Comics than I should)
>>
>>8115778
is Jughead of the comics implied or directly confirmed to be ace?
what about in the show? Have they said he's ace or is it just headcanon/expectations?
>>
>>8116031

Comics Jughead is confirmed Ace. I'm sure that if you typed into GIS "Jughead Asexual", you'd be able to find a scan of the page where he says so. Admittedly, it does give off the "Smug Ace looking down on the humpers" vibe.

Show Jughead is more complicated. Cole Sprouse (the actor playing him) said that he argued at the beginning for Jughead to be both aro and ace. The whole "Betty/Jughead" thing is mostly "both are damaged and trying to help each other", but Sprouse does hope that Jugheads Aro Ace traits end up in Riverdale and that it is done well.

I mean, I'd be willing to chalk up the fact that he's the one that initiates the kiss with Betty to him following classic movie tropes (y'know, "Girls having a breakdown, Supportive Male Friend stops it with a kiss")

It would just be nice to have a semi-mainstream Ace character that isn't Doctor Sheldon Fucking Cooper or Light "All According to Keikaku" Yagami
>>
>>8116236
He's basically confirmed to be aroace in the comics as well since he was immune to a romance spell
