"Asexuality Is Also A Sexuality" Can We Agree?

[anon1903]

someone ignorant here said it's unhealthy to show no interest in sexual activities.

I think it's fairly normal.

[JackSmy]

WHO CARES? If someone, maybe even a close friend, decides that they are not interested in relationships, and sex, that is THEIR BUSINESS, and not for you to JUDGE!
For a friend, I just support what they choose! It is not my place to tell them what they "Should do," or "Should feel!"
Why do soooooooo many think that everyone has to be "Mainstream," like married, and having kids?
Some say, Sod that Lot!!
Be TRUE to who you are, and if someone has a problem with that, it is THEIRS, being a CONTROL FREAK!!
Why do you need to LABEL?

[anon1903]

Exactly

Asexuality is literally the absence of sex or sexuality. Sex is a reproductive drive, even if those swimmers are going to no egg, or never there in the first place. The basis is the need to reproduce.

If asexuality was a sexuality then humans would be able to make other humans through mitosis. Lesbians can still have babies, gay men can still find surrogate mothers, though they have a clear sexual preference the urge or ability to reproduce isn't hindered by that.

Being completely asexual is a lack of sexuality a (not) sexual (referring to sex). I doubt it's unhealthy, except maybe for guys because of the increased risk of prostate cancer. Who knows though, maybe it's only decreased frequency of getting off that causes that, and at some point things just atrophy.

I totally agree but a lot of asexuals still masturbate from time to time

[wheist9095]

Yep, it's no more strange than homosexuality or bisexuality. We're more evolved than simple reproductive urges in our society

[ohshee]

Yes I would have to agree with you and it's something whether I would agree with you or not is something that has to be respected I don't understand it because I'm not there it's never happened to me that way I enjoy in crave making love to somebody and making them feel the same way that I do or better so I do agree with you though it's the same thing with opposite basically

[SolifeNolife]

I'm kinda bias to the question cause I'm ace but I think it's perfectly normal. Me personally I've had my hormones checked, I'm not depressed, and overall just a healthy person. Being Asexual is just part of who I am nothing more to it😁

[ShortCircuit]

No. I don't think there is necessarily anything unhealthy or wrong with asexuality, but it is by definition not a sexuality. Sexualities refer to which gender (s) you are sexually attracted to, not how much sexual attraction you experience. Asexuality is merely a function of having no libido. There are also romantic asexuals who experience romantic attraction to their preferred gender (s). But if they were to simply state that they were asexual, that doesn't provide any information on which gender (s) they're attracted to romantically, if any. So it's not a sexuality. The sexualities are heterosexuality, homosexuality, and bisexuality--and you can be asexual in addition to any of those sexualities.

Would wipe out all humans if we all became asexual and had no interest in having babies tho. But that sounds like a good thing...
And yeah it's still a sexual orientation which is technically a bad thing unless we adapt like Komodo dragons and can reproduce without sex. But this would only matter at high rates. At the moment it don't matter and we have to many people anyway. And that all be said could still be wanting a baby and preform sex even if asexual so shrugs.

[anon1903]

What side are you on, man 😂😂😂

[Kaneki05]

The side of Evolution, But also the side of internal conflict of humans existence in the first place along side been a human myself including my own preservation of what we are? whatever this side is lol.

[dreamstar72]

Not making joke about the COVID-19 virus because it is bad now. But what you said This could happen a ASEX6-66 virus no cure

[Kaneki05]

full blown zombie apocalypse have a way more likely chance of happening way before that lol

[anon1903]

You guys are crazy 😁😂

[Kaneki05]

That's the highest compliment :)

[TadCurious]

Think about it in terms of evolutionary biology. If it were "fairly normal" for members of a species to show no interest in sexual/mating activities, what would happen to that species? That's right --- it wouldn't be very successful in maintaining its population.

[anon1903]

You can get pregnant by using artificial methods too.

[0112358]

It's a thing. Is it a separate sexuality that's distinct from being hetero or gay or bi with a sex drive at zero? I don't know.

but a sexuality people are around and they're not just waiting for some decent sex.

people don't want to recognize it because doing so recognizes that sexual compatibility is a thing which is actually pretty downplayed. People like to act like if you care about each other and communicate you can always have a happy sex life and it's just not true.

[JayParris]

Its literally a lack of sexuality, so its not a sexuality at all. Meaning you don't have a sex drive at all. No masturbation, no sexual thoughts, nothing

[Jamie05rhs]

No; it's the lack of sexuality.

Still, there's nothing wrong with it. There's no law that says every citizen is required to have sex.

[Juxtapose]

It's just a clinicly low libido renamed so it's trendy.

[Pete671]

It's a valid sexual orientation and not as uncommon, imho, as people think,,,

[msc545]

Depending on age, being asexual can be the result of reduced hormones, depression, or many other problems that all require medical attention. Calling it "normal" doesn't make it normal.

[anon1903]

Asexuality isn't the same as losing your appetite.

[msc545]

I didn't say it was.

[grega239]

No we can't.
That's like saying atheism is still a religion

[Tstrbrainer]

I don't know if that's a form of sexuality, but it's not at all unhealthy. At least another person can't say like that.

Asexuality can be a blessing, sometimes.

No one have the mandatory responsibility to ensure the existence of the species to which they belong to

[GAGSucksBalls1]

nope

[Nachowedgie]

No, it's the absence of sexuality

[anon1903]

But it isn't unhealthy, yes?

[Nachowedgie]

I dunno, I don't really care
