Nothing, you just have a kink.

[(Anonymous)]

*puts on therapist glasses* Perhaps it's a safety net, a way of distancing yourself. You don't have to worry about it ever being a real relationship because none of those things are real.

(not a qualified therapist, just stole the glasses)

[(Anonymous)]

Yeah, came here to say this. Completely fictional and impossible characters are a safe way to explore sexuality or sexual/romantic feelings without it being attached to real people or possibilities. And that's okay! You don't have to be interested in actual people if that's not how it's going for you, it's only a problem if it's causing you distress. So have fun thinking about robots if you like and don't worry too much.

[(Anonymous)]

Don't worry, anon, I'm kind of the same way.

I'll see people irl, celebrities, etc. and I'm just not interested at all. I don't "get" how so many people my age are like "OMG CELEBRITY IS SO HOT HNNNG." I feel nothing.

But if you'd say that the same celebrity was an android, vampire, demon, etc., THEN I might say "Oh yeah, he is pretty good-looking." I'm not a furry since I don't find anthropomorphic animals interesting, just humanoids like what you mentioned. I guess I just find normal humans boring? Maybe you do too.

[(Anonymous)]

Perhaps because you feel that non-humans are something more, maybe even something better than any human you could possibly meet. Imagination is a curse that lets us see all these things we can never touch.

[(Anonymous)]

Do you want to be in relationships with these fictional characters? If they were real, would you really date them? Or is it more fun fantasy? Because I'm asexual but I still get off fantasizing about certain characters and relationships. I'm just not attracted to real people or a real sexual relationship.

[(Anonymous)]

Me too, kind of.

I'm an aromantic asexual due to childhood abuse, but I still enjoy fictional sex and relationships, as long as there's a safe distance between them and me.

[(Anonymous)]

Same. Fantasizing is fun, and it's not totally abnormal for asexual people to do so, either.

[(Anonymous)]

Aw, OP. I can empathize. I always fall for humanoid aliens in fiction... humans, not so much. I've always assumed (in my own case, I have recognized that it's a kink) that it's something of an "exotic" appeal. Humans are boring ok.

[(Anonymous)]

You need to turn off the internet, is what's wrong with you. Take a fucking break from nerd media.

[(Anonymous)]

Rude.

[(Anonymous)]

my goodness, such a strong reaction to what is essentially not an awful, horrible problem

perhaps it is ~you~ who should get of the 'nets, grasshopper

[(Anonymous)]

...says the person on fandomsecrets.

[thene]

Familiarity breeds contempt. A lot of people get drawn to things they perceive as 'unusual/different/other' for some reason. And the great thing about getting into real relationships is finding out that other human beings ARE weird and alien and impossibly different from you at close quarters.

[(Anonymous)]

“Sex is more exciting on the screen and between the pages than between the sheets.” ~ Andy Warhol

[(Anonymous)]

"wrong with you"? Who says that there IS anything "wrong" with you?

It drives me insane to see people commenting on the "rightness" or "wrongness" or "normality" of different sexual orientations. Just because you aren't attracted to humans - men OR women - does not mean that there is anything WRONG with you. It just means that your soul spins a different way. You could even be demi-sexual without having had the opportunity to FORM the emotional attachment required by demi-sexuals to become sexually attracted to a someone else.

Know what? All of that is OKAY. And anyone who says otherwise needs to have their own head examined.

[diabolicalfiend]

You're just a sexual misanthrope. IDK, either don't have sex, hope for an alien invasion or get to know someone who you can grow to trust enough and hope they don't mind pretending they're Data.

[(Anonymous)]

There's nothing wrong with you. Asexuals aren't attracted to people. Robots, aliens, vampires, angels, demons, etc. aren't people. If your fantasies typically don't involve you personally (e.g. you imagine fictional character A shagging fictional character B, not one or both of them shagging you), you probably are asexual. Being interested in sex and feeling sexual attraction = not the same thing.
