Who /asexual/ here?
>never had any sexual molestation or trauma
>still find people attractive
>capable of having relationships
I've just never felt the need to have sex, my body doesn't really want it.
>>24708621
Might be a brain tumor.
I'd ask for a MRI of your head. at your local hospital, if I were you.
>>24708621
Do you masturbate?
>>24708621
I am
>>24708671
I don't, never have. Never felt the need to and have never wanted to
>>24708671
Yeah alot actually, but I just think about the pleasure I feel, not about sex
I feel no sexual attraction to real people, only concepts and hypothetical situations. I've had sex but I don't enjoy it and can only get off to stories.
I don't know what that makes me.
Would you be ok with your partner having sex with other people?
I'll see someone who I think is sexually attractive and think that they are sexually attractive, but I don't think "wow I want to fuck that person" or anything like that.
>>24708710
Fuck no I'm way too jealous
>>24708728
Ok, thanks for answering all my questions.
Why do people feel the need to broaden and broaden the definition of asexuality further and further just so they can be special snowflakes?
>I can't get laid
>but I can't appear to be pathetic
>I'll pretend it's by choice!
fucking LEL
>asexuals can be aroused
>asexuals can have sex
>asexuals can be in relationships
>asexuals can fall in love
>asexuals can have children
So basically it's another meaningless 'special snowflake' word?
>>24709382
Yep. In reality, asexuality is complete lack of attraction, sexual or otherwise. >>24709343 summarizes the reason for its existence pretty clearly. These people are too pathetic to admit they are, in fact, pathetic.
>>24709409
I disagree with that as well, sounds like projection.
You know how maleable the human brain is, right? To say 'asexuals definitely don't exist' is pretty retarded considering all the possible quirks of the mind.
I had a gf for 5 years, and we had intercourse hundreds of times. I never got any pleasure from it, apart from the emotional sarisfaction, and never came not even once. Had to fake it sometimes. Never told her that I wasn't capable of enjoying sex. Only learned about the concept of asexuality afterwards, and it fits me pretty accurately.
No, I'm not going to argue that there isn't something wrong with me. Obviously there is. But I don't get why people refuse to believe asexuality isn't a thing
>>24708703
You're just an idiot
>>24709440
You're gay. Come out of the closet m8.
>>24709382
even though I agree with your point, those five things could still happen to a true asexual.
Arousal is an autonomic reflex that can happen from odd stimulation (I once came in three seconds by sitting on a beach ball in a weird way and have no idea how that happened). People can have sex and hate it. Asexual dating sites exist and asexuals do fall in love with each other and get married without ever having any sex (I read an article about one such couple who played scrabble on their wedding night), and with kids there are options like adoption.
>>24709382
No, it's an umbrella term that encompasses many variations on a concept, some of which are probably bullshit but not all of them are. Would you rather like that every specific form of asexuality had a special snowflake term of its own? That would be even worse
>>24709430
An asexual literally wouldn't be able to differentiate men from women without stopping to think about it, it wouldn't come naturally to them.
I'm not saying they don't exist, but the people going around announcing they are asexual are certainly not.
>>24709454
This is the stupidest argument I can think of. I'm still romantically attracted to women exclusively and I get crushes easily. Never had that happen with a dude. It would probably be easier if I did
>>24709440
>never came not even once. Had to fake it sometimes
how do u fake cum?
>>24709496
Of course man. :)
>>24709477
Are you really this stupid?
If asexual doesn't mean 'someone who abstains from sex' or 'someone with no interest in sex' it's a useless word. It's meaningless.
It shouldn't have subcategories, because it already has a very specific meaning, that is, a person who doesn't desire sex.
>>24709499
Not without a condom, obviously
>>24709485
Oh, okay.
So an asexual is now someone whose sensory perceptions are completely fucked up?
Arousal isn't a prerequisite for discernment you spastic.
>>24709470
I still think at some point they'll both be feeling particularly horny one night, give each other a look and suddenly fuck like crazy
"Low libido" shouldn't be included in the umbrella term for asexual.
"Asexual" should be reserved for people who aren't attracted to either gender, which 3% of Britain was back when they accidentally discovered this.
>>24709518
But some persons who don't desire sex still masturbate, while others don't. So obviously there are some variations.
>>24709553
>implying masturbation isn't a form of sexual activity
Unless you're an organism that can reproduce by itself, asexuality means you don't desire sex of any kind, if you masturbate, at the very least you're an autosexual.
>>24709531
The function that allows you to differentiate genders at a glance is a sexual one.
>>24709570
Except it's not.
It's a spatial/geometrical/aural one.
>>24709584
It isn't. The reason you do it is to check for mate compatibility, it's the second check your brain makes after confirming it's human.
im straight and extremely attracted to women both relationship wise and sexually but all my body wants is to get fucked hard up the ass and to suck giant veiny cocks like a time travelling semen demon from outer space
also vaginas are disgusting
>>24709570
>>24709584
not exclusive
>>24708621
you just haven't been opened to it yet, I think all asexuals are more demisexuals
>>24709600
Yeah, and 2+2=5.
Are you seriously trying to convince me that the differences between males and females aren't completely obvious?
They sound different, they look different. Not only that, but they look different in a variety of ways. They have different features, an hourglass shape compared to a V shape, height differences and TWO FUCKING GLOBES ON THE CHEST.
Now, obviously both genders exist on a spectrum, so some girls look like guys, and some guys look like girls, but the reason we can even say that is because stereotypically they are COMPLETELY DIFFERENT.
>The reason you do it is to check for mate compatibility, it's the second check your brain makes after confirming it's human.
[citation needed]
>>24709643
>I have to check for boobs and listen to their voice before I can tell if someone is male or female
>>24709616
Of course it's not, of course they're connected.
But a lot of sex researchers are waking up to this idea of sexual association. The brain is more complex than a fucking difference engine, we're not checking off lists, we're experiencing the product of billions of simultaneous neuronal firings.
>>24709659
>I have no argument so I'm just going to ignore what's self-evident and assume my opponent is retarded as I am instead of reducing my retarded arguments to the absurdities they are.
I stopped mastrubating for months and I lost any desire to masterbate. Even when I looked at porn and tried to mastrybate I couldn't. I wondered if I was asexual, but then realized that couldn't be the case because I had been attracted to girls before. So I kept at it and was finally able to get it up. The orgasms weren't anything to write home about at first but after a while my penis got stronger and I now have very satisfying orgasms. I masterbaited right before I wrote this.
Asexuality is bullshit, use it or lose it.
>>24709681
>I've been btfo so badly all I can do insult the guy talking sense and offer nothing else to the discussion
>>24709569
The thing is that asexuality is used and understood to be a term that it isn't entirely scientific. It's a social phenomenon that's not very well documented and does include a wide variety of sexual identities, some or most of which you'd probably argue don't fit the description of asexual.
Ironically, you'd probably need that useless meme gender studies degree to have an academically credible opinion on thism
>>24709681
mayne just fucking kill yourself
>>24709694
I literally just mirrored you, idiot.
You have nothing left, so stop projecting or come up with another meaningless word.
How about this next: "Not all celibates are virgins!"
>>24709409
It's expected when we live in an age where status means everything and we all want to be more special than everyone else within our networks.
It's what happens when the parents, teachers and peers raise someone while telling them they're gonna be something great.
>>24709569
Asexual here. This isn't true, I masturbate all the time but I have zero interest in other people.
My asexuality stems from my schizoid personality disorder.
>>24709702
>>24709702
Another brilliant counter point. You're done, I don't even know why I'm still here. I guess on the off chance someone can actually come up with a way to make it so asexuality is a meaningful word while not meaning 'someone who doesn't desire sex' or 'an organism that reproduces on its own'.
>>24709727
>atheism: a lack of theism
>anosmia: a lack of smell
>asexual: i still participate in sexual activity
This is how retarded you are. What you're doing is called speaking without saying anything.
>>24709712
>I don't know what a celibate is either
It's called basic human behaviour, there's a great series on youtube you can look up from a Stanford course to fill the gaps in your knowledge.
Knowing whether someone is male or female should be instant, it shouldn't take you time to think about. It seems you're just very slow in the head. An asexual doesn't see sexuality, they don't think in sexual terms because they are a- (without) sexual.
>>24709759
>masturbation is sexual
Not really, it serves no sexual function.
If you masturbate another then yes, it's foreplay and an introduction to sexual intercourse. This is what makes it sexual.
>>24709770
>I can't explain why you're wrong.
>But according to Stanford you are
/golfclap
An involuntary celibate is still celibate.
I thought 'a virgin who isn't celibate' was too absurd even for you, clearly not.
2+2 = 5
I'm not going to look up a course that is apparently so shitty the people that did it can't impart what they learned on to others, but you should definitely read 1984.
>>24709784
>>24709784
It's autosexual behaviour.
You're using a SEXUAL organ to achieve SEXUAL pleasure.
>>24709727
>I masturbate all the time but I have zero interest in other people
that has nothing to do with sex then
it just means you're a misanthrope
>>24709786
>explain why you're wrong
>you can't even read the post correctly
Please try again.
>I'm not going to expand my knowledge on a topic I know little about
lol ok then kid
>>24709810
>I can't argue with you.
That's what you've actually said in your last two posts, just fyi.
>>24708621
it's called being a woman OP
also, this:
>>24709550
most "asexuals" seem to really be "low or non existent libido".
>>24709784
u r retarded m8
>>24709786
>virgin who isn't celibate
you mean like faggots?
btfo
>>24709818
I've explained clearly why you are wrong, you simply try to worm your way out of admitting it each time.
Maybe you can figure it out for yourself - just think about why genders exist, why people can tell genders apart, and whether an asexual person would be able to do it. I know you already know the answer, but it's fun to embarrass you even further and see you squirm in that corner.
>>24709824
A faggot who hasn't had sex is a virgin and celibate.
A faggot who has sex, even if it's anal sex, is no longer celibate and no longer a virgin.
Not only that, but virgin can be generalised. So you can be an anal virgin, you can be a virgin to masturbation, et cetera.
I thought this was super simple stuff, but apparently not.
>>24709854
a faggot who hasn't put his dick in a vagina is a virgin
he can still have sex with a man though
:^)

>I've explained why you're wrong.
>"Celibacy is basic human behaviour"
I think that's the point you were making, I don't know, it's kind of difficult since you've types a lot of words without actually expressing anything meaningful.
Which I guess I should've expected since your side of the argument is 'asexuality != someone with no desire for sex'
>>24709876
Clearly you haven't been able to follow this discussion at all.
Try again.
>implying engaging/not engaging in sexual activity is a choice
>>24709770
without sexual(relating to sex) ?
>>24709872
You have a stupidly rigid definition of virginity, then.
My status:
>complete awareness of how unflustered I am
Your status
>Projecting
>so frustrated you've stopped trying to say anything meaningful and are just trying to get the last word with comments like 'hurrr u mad bro?'
>>24709809
Not at all; I enjoy helping people.
>>24709806
It's not sexual. It's simply a pleasurable activity. I would never actually act on those feelings or want to imitate the porn I watch.
>>24709887
No, I'll just leave the thread because clearly all you ever cared about was having the last word, even if it is completely meaningless.
Explain to me how asexual isn't completely meaningless if asexuals can have sexual desire. It's been as simple as that, but you've been unable to manage it and instead have thrown out red herrings that I've responded to just to point out how fucking stupid you are.
>>24709820
But the term asexual does include people with nonexistent or just really low libido in addition to "real" asexuals that don't experience any sort of sexual attraction. That's just how the word has transformed. You're welcome to have an opinion that it shouldn't be that way, of course.
>>24709919
Again you're not understanding a single post in this thread. Asexuals are not common, they are very ill people who lack basic human functions related to sexuality such as being able to tell the difference between men and women.
If you claim you're an asexual it's because you can't get laid and want to save face.
It's quite embarrassing.
>>24709919
Different anon here, but it seems like you're a bit stuck on the literal, scientific definition of the word instead of the practical and societal way that asexuality manifests/people identify with.
>>24709897
it's pretty easy senpie
male virgin: hasn't put his penis in a woman
female virgin: hasn't had a penis in her vagina

Morrisey is asexual. He's famous, and at least a 7/10. You think he couldn't get laid?
>>24710628
Morrisey is closeted. He spent years denying homosexuality, claiming asexuality instead.
More recently he has said Unfortunately, I am not homosexual. In technical fact, I am humasexual. I am attracted to humans. But, of course... not many." you can google that quote to find the interview.
He's just been living in the closet so long he has to keep it up.
