Re: The Big Bang Theory/asexuality

You have a point, but regardless of canon facts, I do see where people are having an issue with this. Asexuality is not a commonly-known thing outside of the internet, and a lot of people who watch the show may have identified with Sheldon via his lack of interest in physical intimacy, and instead of a message of "this is an okay way to be," they're basically basing a plot on the idea that lack of interest in sex is immature. Which is basically the same thing every other sitcom ends up saying at some point or another, sure, but it would have been nice if they'd canonically made him asexual rather than...saying he's just an immature, repressed nerd.

Then again, this is TBBT we're talking about, which is a show about nerds with the hight of its humor amounting to "lol stupid nerds." So what are we even expecting, really.
