Dr. Gary Bell's Absurd Psychology

To Be Asexual

01 Sep 2020

Description

The defining characteristic of asexuality is never feeling sexually attracted to anyone, but asexuals vary in other ways. Romantic attraction, for example, is distinct from sexual attraction, and asexuals vary in the degree to which they experience it. Some asexuals engage in sexual relations, probably because they have a romantic partner who wishes to do so. Asexuals also differ in the frequency with which they masturbate, and in the accompanying fantasies. There are even some qualifications to the key characteristic of never feeling sexually attracted to anyone. "Demi-sexuals" identify as asexual "until they form a strong emotional connection with someone" and "gray-sexuals" are those "who fall somewhere in the spectrum between asexual and sexual." Tune in a learn more about this fascinating topic. Is it a diagnosis or a sexual preference?
