What kind of (a)sexuality is this? (Possible TMI)
(Anonymous) 2014-07-24 02:43 am (UTC)(link)However, up until recently, I have never done more than kissing and groping, with both genders. Kissing does absolutely nothing for me, but the groping was always fun.
Recently, though, I have a boyfriend with whom I am starting to engage sexually with. And I find myself...extremely underwhelmed. We haven't quite managed full on intercourse yet (I am the "vagina too small for an average dick" anon from a few months back, and never got back in time to say that I don't have much access to sex toys die to finances and living situation). Some of the kinkier bits (him spanking or choking me) were also fun, but mostly on par with the light groping - I still get MUCH more sexual satisfaction out of masturbating. My boyfriend is pretty good about taking directions in bed, but nothing I suggest really seems to work.
Is this a type of asexuality? I've tried poking around AVEN, but I found it very vague and unhelpful. When it comes to asexuality, everything is defined around attraction, and I experience plenty of that. It's just actual sex I find myself bored by.
Thoughts/help?

(Anonymous) 2014-07-24 03:25 am (UTC)(link)But I mean, it's not for me to decide what your sexual identity is.
Re: What kind of (a)sexuality is this? (Possible TMI)
(Anonymous) 2014-07-24 03:27 am (UTC)(link)Sexuality really isn't about how good you find sex or how much you enjoy it. That is actually something that varies wildly based on a) who it's with; b) what you're doing; c) lots of other factors that I'm not listing. Regardless of your sexuality or lack of, you may or may not enjoy actually having sex. What determines if you're sexual/asexual isn't what you get out of it but whether you want to in the first place.
Like, you can be super gay and be bored by a lot of gay sex. Just because attraction exists doesn't mean the sex will be good or that you'll like it; you've probably heard of guys saying things like even if they find pretty girls hotter they're less fun to fuck because or they find someone not hot at all but they're great in bed, etc..
Asexuality would be not even wanting sex at all really. It just sounds from your post that you don't like bad or unfulfilling sex, and, well, that's totally normal! That's lots of people.
http://www.reddit.com/r/sex/ I would actually recommend checking this out - it's very welcoming / open about stuff, and you can see there are tons of people there who are definitely sexual but who are working at finding out what KIND of sex works for them / how to make sex BETTER, given that it's something they're interested in.
But... yeah, TL;DR is you probably aren't asexual or given what you're saying it doesn't fit what asexuality is.

This is actually a thing anyway, there's a general perception that people who are less sexually attractive 'try harder' in bed and give better sex. Not something I condone or necessarily agree with, but it does sort of point to the fact that how good sex is isn't tied to how sexually attractive someone is and rather more linked to whether they're putting in effort or doing something you like in bed.
Re: What kind of (a)sexuality is this? (Possible TMI)
(Anonymous) 2014-07-24 03:43 am (UTC)(link)Adding to this, if sex has left OP totally underwhelmed enough for her to not be interested in it at all any more and left OP totally underwhelmed enough to have lost the attraction to other people, then that could possibly count as some kind of asexuality.
But it doesn't sound like OP has completely lost interest in having sex. More that she's frustrated by bad sex and would like good sex instead. OP, if you'd still be interested in a relationship full of great sex with a sexually attractive partner, you're probably not asexual. Just going through a patch of bad sex.

(Anonymous) 2014-07-24 03:37 am (UTC)(link)Have you tried masturbating for/with him? It can start creating a connection between direct sexual stimulation and him, plus all the other chemicals our brains fire off during and after sex.
So far as sex toys go, you can get pretty creative with regular objects. I wouldn't recommend food -- most of it will do bad things to your vagina -- but even things like Barbies can be helpful. If you have highlighters, mini M&M's tubes, even an electric toothbrush, they can all be used in a variety of ways for insertion and clitoral stimulation. Just make sure the batteries are out and wrap everything up in a condom for easy clean up.

He's going to need some time to really get the hang of your body. He might never be able to do as well on his own as you do for yourself. That's not "a sexuality." It's just reality.
Re: What kind of (a)sexuality is this? (Possible TMI)
(Anonymous) 2014-07-24 03:59 am (UTC)(link)There's also the whole thing about gay men being better at sex with guys than straight or bi women are because because they get how a male body works more. A lot of whether sex is enjoyable is down to how good you are at it.

(Anonymous) 2014-07-24 03:53 am (UTC)(link)About being unable to have intercourse, you might vaginismus. It's what I had, and made sex difficult for me at first. (Although I can't say intercourse has done much for me either, lol.)
