That is really very helpful. My oldest daughter tells me she is asexual. She does have a boyfriend. Not sure how that relationship is going to go. Thank you for posting. I appreciate the explanation.

Maybe asexuality was judged morally wrong because reproduction of the species was considered a virtue.

I have learned a lot about asexualism because one of my daughters is asexual. Although she has had boyfriends, they never lasted long.

That's great!
Except that I'm a demisexual who gets disgusted by hetero sex images, talk, etc. Lesbian sex is "meh" - boring. Like watching people cut up vegetables for lunch.

Gay men sex is "sweet." How romantic. Still no lust.

I have to have associated with someone well over a year before I feel sexual attraction, and then it's only for that person. Everyone else's sexual activity and genitals are disgusting to me. But for that one person I have a libido so strong, I'm like 10 men.

I like fantasy play, costumes, mild S & M, etc. which is too much for the typical cis hetero male, who seems to prefer quick rabbit sex..get it over quickly before she changes her mind.
