Re: I need some help/advice, guys (sexuality-related, ridiculously long)
(Anonymous) 2013-05-06 01:45 am (UTC)(link)Sorry, I should've explained in the original post. That's what I felt at the time it happened, but now I do realize that that isn't true.
It sounds like asexual fits as a label. You do realize that you can want and be in a relationship and still be asexual, right? That label is generally purely talking about sexual attraction and lack of, not lack of desire for a relationship.
It just seems like if they know the word at at all, most people think that asexual means 'not interested in either sex' (and that actually makes more sense to me as a definition honestly) which isn't necessarily true. And 'potentially interested in a romantic relationship with either sex' isn't something that is really obvious just from 'asexual,' at least not without further explanation, so for me it doesn't quite work as a label in the same way that gay, straight and bi do (those don't require further explanation).
