Thats still a culture thing. And also - the difference between men and women. Men are more likely to want to copulate with anything that moves, women are more likely to only be interested after knowing someone.
There are exceptions to the rule but thats genetally how it is.
Also, this varies on where you are in the world. In America, where hookups are part of pop culture and youre almost expected to be having a lot of sex, then there may be more people like that. But in other parts of the world it isnt so common.
I dont get strip clubs or hookups either.
But thats not because i have a special sexuality.
Its because I grew up in a different and less sexualized culture, and also, I dont see women (or anyone else) as sex objects to be bought and sold.
But that doesnt make me asexual. If I was asexual i would have no sexual/romantic interest in anyone.
Of course it happens. There are plenty of people like that. But there as equally as many people who aren't. Its common, its not something rare and unique about you.
And comparing not wanting to hook up with strangers to being a persecuted sexuality like homosexual is kind of insulting.
A sexual orientation denotes what sex youre interested in. Thats why the concept of "sexual orientation" exists. In an ideal world we wouldnt need to specify anyway because no one would be seen differently for being gay or lesbian.
Then enlighten me please on what I am because I feel NOTHING. Absolutely NOTHING. No drive, no ANYTHING and its not a choice.
Believe me.
I wish it were. Especially would make growing up where I did easier or even my friendships with others easier to grasp. There's no male, female or anything that I've saw at first sight and felt anything sexual, even second, third, fifth, and 87th time.
I don't feel any sexual attraction in general. In fact I tend to notice how overtly sexualized everything is.
I get it asexuals weren't being stoned or burnt alive or rallied up into camps to
die, and I know from Tumblr space there's a general vibe that we don't exist. What we're feeling is just confusion as they then go to talk about what they'd love to do to this famous <insert non CIS person here.>
What makes it difficult is when I do. It's very singular in nature, and it's seldom and rare. The emotional connection is what makes the attraction purely. I've felt things for both my female friends and my male friends, but random people of anything nothing. Both these feels are perplexing as they're not the norm.
Heck I've had my female friends skype me in their underwear asking me what clothes they should wear to cons. I am 99.9% sure that's
not normal. They used to also call me their straight gay friend. People used to assume I was a homosexual because I hung out with gals and showed no bloody interest.
I'm not a good person. I'm not on a morale high horse either, and it isn't celibacy or being reserved. There's no religious or cultural backing to why I feel the way I do. if it was culturally driven I'd feel the opposite.
So its very alienating and odd feeling being around others who do. Men who want to screw any gal or other lad they see, and woman who feel the same. It's very weird seeing how people are talking about how hot somebody is and you have no idea who it is in the room. You hear friends discussing one night stands and it's confusing, or threesomes or what ever, or even what they'd love to do to <insert famous person>.
if what I am saying is offending you then please. Just block me,please ignore my existence.
