i dont kno if im actually asexual, or if its even a real sexuality. but since i was a preteen i have disdained penetration, and the last time i watched media which had that act in it was back when i was 13. literally havent watched it since. the only media i view involves f*c*als because to me it is a partaking in the beauty of the face and the pleasure of the orgasm, and means that the girl must love u to allow u to experience climax on the most intimate part of her. but even that ive generally stoped watchin bc porn is bad. but i never watch any kind of sex and i dont like it at all, i think its very dirty. i just want a girl who'll love me and hold me and kiss me and hug me and cuddle me

And the final thing that gets me about asexuality: It's fine that you don't experience sexual attraction, or whatever, but why does it need to be your identity? This search for identity is what I find truly suspicious (though, to be fair, it isn't limited to asexuals).

You're trying to help society in an untenable way. Having no interest in sexuality is extremely rare and its nascent emergence belies the effects of technology more than a lrgitimate identity.

Also, to your Tumblr propaganda post:
>Virginity is a social construct
All words are social constructs. This is meaningless.
>Sex and asexuality are not mutually exclusive
Duh.
>Some virgins have no interest in sex
This is probably true, but I think the likelihood that its more frequent than 1/10,000 is probably unlikely.

I don't disgaree with your cause, but I think you're going about it in the wrong way. You don't need an identity group to be accepted, you don't even need a flag or a mantra. This creation of special groups is a way to change society to compensate for its members insecurity. If these groups promote anything more than physical and legal equality and safety then there is no purpose in its existence. Also, these intellectual standards for debates are, quite frankly, subpar. Read pholosophy, tell me the neuroscience behind sexuality, explain why it's not abnormally unlikely. I don't think anyone thinks asexuals are broken, just that the attempt to intellectualize and socialize it beyond "some people don't like sex" is posturing. Also, the likelihood that anyone just doesn't like sex, is astronomically low - similar to just not liking food.

i dont think so. even when i literally imagine having sex, in the most wholesome and loving fashion, with a girl, it feels strange and abnormal for me. maybe its partly bc im not imagining the real deal (then again i only watch "amateur" stuff so it should be the real deal), but im saying that i have some kind of disconnect to it. it doesnt feel natural for me, and i dont know why. maybe im stunted developmentally? still longing to be my kid self. i just want to be loved, i dont really care to have sex, its just a distraction to me from being suffocated with love

The only true asexuals I have met were autistic and just didn't care about sex at all. They didn't even brand themselves asexuals because sexuality is not something they think about. You should wholeheartedly pursue whatever you are interested in and stop obsessing over labels because it is a waste of time. If you aren't asexual you will figure it out eventually but constant rumination will not help you.

Serious reply:

For "asexuality" as the humiliation of sex as integral to Idealism: The Gospel of Thomas, Pistis Sophia, The Phenomenology of Spirit.

For "asexuality" as Catholic abomination: Kant and Augustine, possibly Aquinas if you can trudge through his phone books.

For "asexuality" as neurotic faggotry: twitter.

Absolutely nothing. I just see it as it is biologically (the act of human reproduction) without any feeling attached to it. At most, I will feel disgusted by some of the acts, or the context of them.
>>12524333
This is the best view on it I think. "Asexual" doesn't need to be an identity or an oppressed group. The last thing I want is to be associated with the perverts of the lgbt community. It just means that I can pursue goals and interests without worrying about trying to attract a partner. A partnership based on intellectual and emotional connection would be ideal, but I don't have my hopes up about this because I doubt that I'll ever meet anyone who compares to my ideal.

I'm sort of asexual but only in the desired way and not a genuine, real way. Probably has to do with the fact that I never found intercouse to be arousing until I was 16 and basically no longer do, also I never went out of my way to watch 3d porn and still haven't.

How does someone tell the difference between being asexual and just having a complex/being impotent/suppressing sexuality? Is there any way to know that for certain? I lost interest in sex awhile back, after falling into a deep depression. Still jack off and have dreams, but the actual act sort of repels me. In my case, it's clearly a complex, but I have this friend who says he's asexual, but he's even more depressed than me, and after talking to him for awhile about sex and fear and stuff, I realize we have a lot of similar worldviews on this stuff and I think he's just repressing. But how can I know the difference, or if there even is one?
