I would have guessed that if I were asexual, then adult content would leave me completely indifferent, wouldn't it? If I am annoyed by adult content it's precisely because it's extremely distracting; sometimes, when I have work to do, I would prefer to be asexual (at least for a few hours).
- kayodelycaon 6y agoAsexual is a broad spectrum. All it means is you don’t feel sexual attraction. I’m both asexual and hypersexual. (Bipolar is the gift that keeps on giving.). I happily read and write furry porn as a hobby. If you want to see how asexuality and sex can work in a relationship, my story Date Night covers that. Disclaimer: It is furry fiction. There are no explicit sex, just discussion about it. https://www.thevoice.dog/episode/date-night-by-kayode-lycaon https://www.thevoice.dog/episode/date-night-by-kayode-lycaon
- lostgame 6y agoI am asexual by choice due to several instances of violent sexual assault.
- enriquto 6y agoI'm really sorry about my ignorance. Never considered that you could turn asexual after a traumatic experience. I was under the impression that it was a natural-born condition; thus my comment.
- adwn 6y ago> I am asexual by choice due to several instances of violent sexual assault. I am sorry for what you had to endure. However, I think you're using the term "asexual" in a non-standard way, and I believe that has led me and others to misinterpret your original post. One cannot "choose" to be asexual, the same way as one cannot choose to be homosexual or heterosexual. One can, however, choose to be sexually abstinent or inactive. Would you agree that this is a better description of your lifestyle?
