Some of you might already know this, but I identify as asexual/aromantic. I did discuss various subsets of asexuality in an earlier post during Pride Month but there are still a few other things I want to further elaborate on.
For starters, some of you might have noticed that I do admit to having fetishes and that I have favorited some suggestive looking pics here on InkBunny so you might be wondering how I conflate that with being asexual. I understand why some people might see that as a contradiction so I would like to address that as well.
When I say that I'm asexual/aromantic, I'm primarily referring to my feeling towards real people. I'm nearly 30, and I can't recall a single instance where I've genuinely desired to have sex with another person, male or female. I've never had intercourse, never dated anyone, or even romantically kissed someone, and I have absolutely no desire to do so. While I find some real people aesthetically attractive, I dislike the thought of seeing them naked and I especially dislike the thought of having sex with them. I even saw sex scenes from the famous 70's porn movie "Debbie Does Dallas" and I felt like I was going to throw up. The best way to describe what I felt would be like if you watched your parents have sex. People are just more attractive with clothes on, I'd rather see a girl wear a nice dress than see her naked, I'd rather see a man wear a nice tuxedo than see him naked.
However, when it comes to fictional characters, I do experience a limited degree of sexual attraction, primarily towards characters like Shining Armor, Fox McCloud, or Rouge the Bat. But even then, it's very rare that I have those thoughts. Instead, I primarily prefer to fetishize them by imaging them in certain kink scenarios(such as them on the toilet) rather than having sex. So perhaps you could label me as a gray fictosexual. Like most asexuals, I do have normal healthy reproductive organs and I do have a libido, it's just channeled in the form of wanting to fetishize certain fictional characters rather than a desire to have sex with real people like it is with the majority of the population.
So I'd like to hear from you guys, what is your sexual orientation, how did you realize that you were that way, and what are some nuances to your sexuality? Let me know in the comments.
