Re: Is being turned on supposed to be a good feeling?

Are you sex-repulsed, though? There's lots of shades of grey under the "asexual" banner.

I think "sex-repulsed" is such a load of crap under the asexual banner and why a lot of asexual people get such shit. It's either immature "ew sex is gross" people or people with actual disorders (like erotophobia, as mentioned elsewhere in this thread). The level of upset the OP has described is not a sexual orientation.

I don't like the term because a lot of the time I just don't think it's accurate.

I've had plenty of sex, but I don't like it. I don't think it's gross, and I'm not repulsed by it like the term implies. It just doesn't feel right to me, and not in an ashamed "sex is wrong" sort of way, but in the way I imagine a gay person would feel about having sex with someone of the opposite sex. I have absolutely nothing against it, I don't think it's bad or wrong, I think it's probably awesome for the people that like it, and I think whatever sexual things people want to do are fine, provided they're consensual and not hurting anyone. It's just not for me. Yet apparently I'm considered "sex-repulsed" because I don't want to do it and am not willing to just to satisfy a partner.

Um, no. That's just considered being asexual.

I agree that what OP is describing seems like more than just an aspect of being ace.

However, I disagree about sex-repulsion being BS, at least in some cases. I think it's perfectly reasonable for someone to be repulsed by having sexual contact with a person they're not attracted to. I mean, wouldn't you be repulsed (or at least have some amount of negative feeling) if you tried to fuck someone you were completely and utterly unattracted to?

Arousal should not feel that bad. That sounds like a physical or mental problem that OP needs to get checked out.

And where did you get your degree in armchair psychology?

The OP gave it to me when they decided to post on a forum asking for people's opinions. :D
