Some thoughts on gender. Also sex. So, umm, vaguely graphic things you probably don't want to know about me? ETA: This got SUPER tl;dr, so you can treat the bolded bits like a summary and just read those, if you're interested
( Read more... )
I troll it sometimes, but I should hang out there more often. It was reading that at one point ages ago that really made me start to think "wait, I can masturbate and still be asexual? holy shit" and "wait, I can enjoy reading slash and be asexual? holy shit" and such.
I totally hear you on that "I would totes have sex with you because I love you (platonically) and would like to do something that brings you pleasure." I wish I weren't too chickenshit to say that to my BFF.
This was an amazing post and echoed a lot of the same feelings I have about my own sexuality/gender identity. Thank you for sharing this and being so honest about yourself. It's inspiring, really.
Hahaha, like I said, pretty sure I was drunk, but still. We talk about sexuality quite a bit, as you can probably guess by the ~issues and our fabulous homo house, so it wasn't bad. I doubt she'll ever take me up on it because while my asexuality is "do not want sex, but enjoy sexual pleasure and wouldn't mind giving it to others if I cared about them", hers is more "do not want sex", but honesty is fun.
Thank you! I'd intended it to be much shorter, but as usual when I write things like this, I was mostly working it out as I went along. I learned a lot about myself in the process, and it's nice to be able to actually have these feelings in words finally.

Second of all: you should join my asexuality community, there are a lot of aromantics there, too. Just a thought.
Third of all: fuck you and your bindable boobs.
Fourth and finally: aw, yeah, house of fabulousness.
Now I kind of want to make another post about sexuality. Mostly about things from my ~younger years that I've been thinking about...maybe later.
