Neither gender turns me on. But if I'm kissing, cuddling, or being touched by my girlfriend (I'm homoromantic) I do get turned on, so I'm confused. I don't think its her turning me on, but the things she's doing. If I see her naked, it does nothing. Would this count as sexual? I can't imagine having sex other than oral and her touching me, and that's only if it's her doing it to me. If I try to return it I feel like I'm going to vomit. Any thoughts?People have sex for different reasons, and for whatever reason it is, I personally feel that each...http://asexualeducation.tumblr.com/post/49770584888http://asexualeducation.tumblr.com/post/49770584888Mon, 06 May 2013 22:38:11 +1000Is it normal for other asexuals to get a little hot and bothered when thinking about other people having sex?

OMGosh! I thank you for asking that question. For so long I felt like I was broken or something because I also become aroused at random times (from listening to music (no lyrics or sexual lyrics) to just reading a mystery book. My friend told me that it can't happen at random that you had to be thinking about something sexual. I'm happy to know that I'm not alone and that it can happen at random to others too. Thank you.Oh wow your friend said that? Yeah it’s normal haha, our bodies can become aroused whenever,...http://asexualeducation.tumblr.com/post/49759073582http://asexualeducation.tumblr.com/post/49759073582Mon, 06 May 2013 16:52:07 +1000I hate feeling aroused because I don't know what to do with it, because sometimes I don't feel like masturbating when it happens.

Like, I find people attractive and I've had crushes on people and wanted to kiss them but I've never really wanted to do sexy stuff. I also don't really know what it feels like to be sexually attracted to someone versus being romantically attracted to them, and I'm just generally confused! I feel very isolated, and that I can't talk to my friends about this, even though i KNOW they would be very understanding. I just would like some help on this.

I don't really know how to phrase this so anyway. Lately I've been wondering if I was asexual. Like, I've never had sex, or even been kissed, but the thought of anything besides hugging, cuddling, and things that can be considered platonic seems odd and unappealing to me. And as I thought about it further, I realized I've never really had a full on "crush". I like the idea of a relationship (minus kissing, etc) but I really don't know, so I was kinda wondering if you could help?http://asexualeducation.tumblr.com/aceedufaq http://asexualeducation.tumblr.com/FAQ http://asexualedu...http://asexualeducation.tumblr.com/post/49248099728http://asexualeducation.tumblr.com/post/49248099728Tue, 30 Apr 2013 18:45:55 +1000(Just a note/disclaimer: No, not all asexual spectrum people would be willing to engage in sexual...(Just a note/disclaimer: No, not all asexual spectrum people would be willing to engage in sexual...http://asexualeducation.tumblr.com/post/49237584865http://asexualeducation.tumblr.com/post/49237584865Tue, 30 Apr 2013 14:14:50 +1000im seeing this debate on my personal blog dash and im angrythis is griff btwand with that im off this blog ill get to more questions later my apologiesasexuali know im gonna see responses and get stressed and pissed off oh wellYesterday I went to the wedding of a close friend. It was quite an "a-ha" moment for me, because I realized that, being the only ace I know, my friends, who are really into sex and romantic relationships, will end up finding their significant someones and I'll be the "last one standing". It sounds selfish, but my friends saved me from suicide and are the reason I feel whole and keep on living a day after the other. I'm just terrified of being alone again.There’s nothing selfish at all about wanting to keep friends and their company.

My family is moderately homophobic, so I am scared they would judge me for not being attracted to the opposite gender(or any gender for that matter).It really depends on the people you’re talking to. My mom sort of said all the wrong things,...http://asexualeducation.tumblr.com/post/49227210199http://asexualeducation.tumblr.com/post/49227210199Tue, 30 Apr 2013 12:02:25 +1000
