ayrt wonders if you're facepalming at my explanation or at the concept itself?

I'm facepalming because dear lord does EVERYTHING need a label, now there are like, sub-sexualities or some shit

Everything is nuanced, if you don't really like sex but might like it idk MAYBE then you're probably asexual, is there really any need to invent this stupid sounding term "grey-ace" for it

ayrt

I'm anon, so, willing to admit that I do have issues with these terms, because there's tinges of slut-shaming to demisexuality and grey-ace (i.e., "I might have sex but when I do it's because I care about them unlike the rest of you sluts who just sleep with people they don't like because SEX SEX SEX IS ALL YOU THINK ABOUT"). I also think that most people on Tumblr IDing as these terms are teenagers with low sex-drive in a society that implies they should be sex-crazed (this largely applies to demisexual?).

Don't forget that there seem to be more asexuals/demisexuals in fandom FOR SOME REASON HMMM

Re: labels

(Anonymous) 2012-12-22 03:28 am (UTC)(link)
There's more EVERYTHING atypical in fandom, though.

(Or at least more people willing to admit to it.)

Re: labels

...what does demisexual even mean? Is it just "low sex drive?"

Re: labels

(Anonymous) 2012-12-22 03:35 am (UTC)(link)
...My understanding of the term is that it means they don't have a sex drive outside of people they're in a relationship with. Not just 'not interested in having sex with' but having that be the thing that flips their libido from OFF to ON.

Re: labels

(Anonymous) 2012-12-22 03:40 am (UTC)(link)
ayrt confirms that it's basically what above anon said. Sexual interest and sex itself won't happen with a demisexual unless they're romantic with that person.

Re: labels

(Anonymous) 2012-12-22 06:15 am (UTC)(link)
isn't that just low sex drive, though? what?

Re: labels

(Anonymous) 2012-12-22 11:27 am (UTC)(link)
I don't know. Is it low sex drive if you have heaps of sex/sex-drive within your relationship?

Re: labels

(Anonymous) 2012-12-22 03:54 pm (UTC)(link)
I swear that is just 'most humans'.

Re: labels

DA. I think you've hit on it with this statement: "teenagers with low sex-drive in a society that implies they should be sex-crazed". If you don't have a strong sex drive, everyone figures there's something wrong with you, so that may be where the need/desire to label comes in. Sort of an "there's nothing wrong with me, I'm just [fill-in-the-blank terminology]".

If we'd had these gradations of terminology when I was a teenager, I might have had something to describe myself as other than "frigid beyotch".
