Re: Finding it hard to identify with people/characters of a different sexual orientation?

I'm asexual and I have the same thoughts when I see any character in a relationship. I don't want to disdain people for caring about something I think is utterly silly, but I can't help having those thoughts. I also can't see any of my OCs as anything but asexual, which is troubling because I don't actually want them all to be.

OP

I forgot to mention that in my original post, but that's an issue with me too. I don't usually write anything because I'm not good at it, but I'm always having ideas for things I'd like to write, and they always involve only gay characters. If I ever get around to writing any of them I feel like it would be wrong (and unrealistic) to make EVERYONE gay but writing about straight characters just doesn't appeal to me at all.

NAYRT

You don't necessarily have to put all your characters in relationships, though. So there could be straight supporting characters who are single, or whose partners are offscreen most of the time. Depending on their role in the story it might not matter to the plot if they're gay or straight, so you could just not get into it. (Does this even make sense?)

OP

That totally makes sense, and is probably what I'll do if I ever end up writing any of those stories.

Same, except rather than relationship, the sex part.

I love relationships and romance... but chaste. Haha.

DA

Same! I feel like the OP does about gender but with sex.
