Re: The Big Bang Theory/asexuality

(Anonymous) 2013-05-12 12:56 am (UTC)(link)
I've seen the most recent episode, and honestly, he still seemed asexual to me. It seemed like he was still very uncomfortable with the idea of doing sexual things, but was willing to roleplay sex with Amy because that's what she wants. It didn't seem like he was really getting anything from it himself... it's just that he's more willing to make compromises for someone he cares about.

I do feel like the show is treating Sheldon's (apparent, though not stated) asexuality not as a legitimate orientation, but rather as a ridiculous flaw of his that would be best if it was fixed - but I'm not totally sure it's presenting it as fixable, if that makes sense.

And it's complicated by the fact that there are some episodes where he seems asexual and others where he just seems extremely repressed, so maybe it... depends on the writer? idk how that works. And I can easily see them making him suddenly turn sexual. But we'll see. Somehow I have a feeling I'm not going to be happy with wherever they take this.
