lql@u trying to pretend demisexuality isn't just a slutshaming pile of bullshit

[(Anonymous)]

Oh.

[darkmanifest.livejournal.com]

Fucking exactly.

[natural-blue-26.livejournal.com]

Oh God it's the pants from Much Ado About Nothing!

[vethica.livejournal.com]

I'd be glad to discuss it with you, anon.

[(Anonymous)]

please do explain to me how a sexual identity that is built around "i only want to have sex with people i have deep feelings for, not like those other sluts" is not slutshaming

[(Anonymous)]

It's not "I don't want to have sex with them until I know them better", it's "I'm not sexually attracted to them until I know them better". Big difference.

[(Anonymous)]

oh okay

"i don't lust after them until i really know them, not like those other horny sluts"

[vethica.livejournal.com]

Because sexual attraction, as mentioned upthread, is not the same thing as sexual behavior. You can have sex with someone without being sexually attracted to them, and, as I'm sure many of the people in this comm who are attracted to celebrities and fictional characters can attest, you can be sexually attracted to someone without having sex with them.

What all this means is that being demisexual (or anything else) has no bearing on when or with whom you have sex. It's probably going to influence your choices, but that's true of every sexuality. Demisexuality refers to sexual attraction only, and I'm sure you'll grant that people can't control who they're sexually attracted to.

blah blah LOOKIT ME I'M A SPECIAL SNOWFLAKE


you are the reason no one takes asexuals seriously

[(Anonymous)]

That makes very little sense and doesn't really defend demisexuality at all. It actually seems to make it so it's not important and is unnecessary as a label.

But kudos for staying reasonable and calm sounding in the face of ridic anons.

[(Anonymous)]

some people don't need super duper deep feelings for someone before feeling sexually attracted to them. demis aren't saying they're better than the people who can feel sexual attraction w/out feelings, just different?? idk why you would arbitrarily tag on "not like those other sluts," i'm sure some demis think like that but it's not the demisexuality doctrine

[(Anonymous)]

I'm curious, and since you seem to be the only person defending it, how does "I only want to have sex with people I have an emotional connection with" count as a sexual orientation rather than a sexual or personal preference?

[vethica.livejournal.com]

See my response to other anon (http://fandomsecrets.livejournal.com/860818.html?thread=533251730#t533251730) for an explanation.

[(Anonymous)]

an inflated sense of self-importance and a desire to appear different, specialler and more pure than other people out there

[(Anonymous)]

If you could explain how "demisexual" is at all unique and not just "how everybody operates" that would be swell.

Also "demi" means "half" so shouldn't you technically be attracted to cyborgs or chimeras?

[(Anonymous)]

This is an epic interpretation.

[vertigomac.livejournal.com]

Oh, now you've intrigued me... why is demisexuality slutshaming?

[(Anonymous)]

npyrt

Because apparently, not being interested in sex with people you don't know very well = looking down on others for being interested in have sex with people they don't know very well. I disagree, but that's the argument.

[(Anonymous)]

no, plenty of people are not interested in sex with people they don't know very well. it's the defining it as a separate, special orientation that makes it slutshaming and attention-wanting

[vertigomac.livejournal.com]

Thanks. I've heard "slutshaming" mentioned before, but couldn't make the connection.

[(Anonymous)]

"i am pure and virginal and special and i don't lust after people until i really know them on a deep emotional level, unlike those other sluts. look at me i'm really special"

[vertigomac.livejournal.com]

You seem to have a lot of feelings about this.

Did someone who claims to be demisexual imply this, or is that what you get from the whole demisexual thing?
