Anonymous asked: I told a friend i am close to that i am asexual and he made the jump/conclusion that i was sexually abused and this is a result of trauma are there any articles or anything i could possibly link him to to show him how much of an ass he is being?

I have never seen this issue addressed specifically, usually only as a side topic that is quickly dismissed. So there aren’t really any articles specific to this, this only really gets a paragraph or two.

(x) small wiki paragraph.

(x) doesn’t say straight out about sexual abuse, but does address something associated with it, such as a fear of sex.

(x) is a video in which the person discusses the difference between asexuality and sexual and mental disorders. It mainly discusses hypoactive sexual desire disorder, but the idea is there.

I’ve searched around and these are really the most succinct sources without getting repetitive or having to search through forum threads and discussions.
