Re: Non-fandom secrets

^yeah, in other words, the demisexual interpretation of this kind of crushing is describing something completely different to what is actually going on. This seems to be the main sticking point between demisexual-identified people and those of us who reject the term; interpretations of the behaviour of others.

Think of the difference between a celebrity and a model. Not many people obsess over hot models whose lives and personalities they know nothing about, even if those people are objectively hotter than the people who they do fancy. Instead they get into people they know about, people who've done things they like, played characters they relate to, said interesting things, etc. If normal sexuality was what demisexuals think it is, we'd all be fixated on models and porn stars.

Someone I knew irl was working in fetish porn a few years ago, and she found that the best way to keep work coming in was to regularly update a blog about (a fairly fictionalised version of) her life. She put a few fetishistic photos on there but obv mostly saved that for the paysites she worked for rather than giving much away for free - instead, she wrote posts about her life and about random kink-related stuff she was interested in and let her audience feel like they were getting to know her.

All of this. This is precisely what's always bugged me about demisexuality. It's really not different, but just a different interpretation of how sexual attraction works for a lot of people. There's not need for a separate category or word.

That actually makes a great deal of sense about your friend who was in porn. I know a lot of porn stars have blogs or twitter now. I don't have to know anything about a porn star to find them aesthetically pleasing or enjoy their work (and there's a certain degree of personality that usually goes into said work as well), but the ones that I tend to come back to are ones that I've seen in interviews or read blogs for and have found that I find their personalities attractive as well.

And your interpretation is, of course, the only one that matters, right? What YOU think is "actually going on" is just the way it must be for everyone.

Uh, no. But this is how it usually happens:

Demisexual-ID'ed person: Everyone else is like THIS but i am DIFFERENT so i need a LABEL
Everyone else: Uh, what? We are not like we say you are at all.

It's not about me having an interpretation; it's just that every time a demisexual describes 'full-sexuals' or what they see as default sexual behaviour, they're off the mark and I see a whole bunch of other people also telling them that they're off the mark.
