But John is definitely not asexual. So unless this is an open relationship and John has sex on the side or it's poly and John has a girlfriend, John becomes a celibate martyr. And honestly, I don't want to see an asexual Sherlock/sexual John relationship in that (or any other Holmes) series. And I definitely don't want the series to get into poly politics.

I don't see Sherlock as asexual, anyway, so much as celibate because he doesn't care people or sex enough to not be, but that's a different issue.

I agree with you - and if I'm honest, Sherlock as celibate makes more sense to the character than being asexual does, imo. And I can go either way. If he breaks that celibacy for John it would be really.. interesting, and touching. (On the other hand, I have an ongoing RP universe wherein Sherlock is asexual but will "go there" for John because he cares about him and because there are things about it that he appreciates, if not the act itself. *shrug*)

I actually like that idea, though I fear it kind of makes John looks selfish. "I know you don't wanna do this, but I really want to!"

OTOH, John willingly does a shitton of stuff for Sherlock whether he really wants to or not, so it's not like it'd be a one-way street.

There is a lot of compromises in a relationship with someone who is asexual. Having the sexual party to be celibate isn't the only solution. It depends on the comfort level of the asexual party. Some will see being sexual with their sexual partner as relative no biggie because they want to give their partner pleasure even though they won't experience that pleasure through sexual intimacy. Hell some would even get off because they are giving someone that kind of pleasure. Some can not stand sex in any instance even if they are hetero/homo/pan/bi-romantic, and some in between. Asexuality isn't one solid group, it has different subcategories.

Yeah, I pretty much came here to say this. My girlfriend actually has more of a sex drive than I do and she identifies as asexual. Personally, when I saw people using the word "demisexual" around here I thought that fit her better, but since people get all up in arms over that...

I worry more for the sexual partner in that type of situation. Having sex with someone that doesn't enjoy it, someone who doesn't really want you that way? What a nightmare.

I gotta say - it's no fun. I stopped asking.
