Still amazes me that people think asexual means:

Anti-Sexual
Virgin
Emotionless, cold, robotic
Infantile
Hormonally imbalanced
Someone who thinks they’re better than others who have sex
I mean... Have these people ever talked to an asexual?
Point 1) Anti-asexual

There are sex positive, neutral, and negative asexuals. Some asexuals LOVE sex, some asexuals don’t care either way, some asexuals don’t want it. They’re valid all the same.
But Jen, how can an asexual be asexual if they love to have sex?

Sometimes people are attracted to other people for reasons other than sex.

I never meet people and think, ‘yeah that person is hot and I’d totally have sex with them’. It never crosses my mind.
There are asexuals who still love orgasms and masturbation. No partner required.
This leads to the point about hormonal imbalance. Asexuals don’t have a broken libido. I promise you and swear to the highest of powers. We don’t. Sorry for the TMI but I’ve been horny plenty and it’s not caused by looking at a picture of a pretty lady or some shit.
It’s just my body’s biology saying, ‘hey you’re coming up on that time of the month so you should like... Do the giggity and reproduce otherwise all this stuff I’ve built up gonna go to waste’
Point 3) Asexuals are virgins. Yes and NO. See my previous tweets in this thread. Asexuals can still love and desire sex. It’s about the attraction, not the action.
