My daughter is questioning, how do i support her?

So I was in bed with my family last night (we all do something called a "cuddle puddle") and she was laying in my partners arms while he played with her hair. She just started crying and we asked her what was wrong. She was like "I don't want it to happen to me" and we asked what she meant she said sex. And I told her she didn't have to do it if she she wasn't comfortable with it. She was very shocked with that answer. I'm assuming because in an allo-normative society it is somewhat of standard to have sex.

We were in the bathroom while I brushed my teeth and she was doing her hair and she was like dad? I was like hm? she asked me "Am I broken?" I answered no.

Since learning that me and her other parents still love her she's been more open to talking to us about it.

"I don't like sex without emotion, I would only want to be intimate with someone I loved and can give my everything to. But that's not necessary, I would be fine just being in someone's arms. Just being held."

I just want to know how better I can help her.

Sexualization of everything makes me sick.

So yeah, this is a vent. Feel free to disagree idc. Everything in this stupid world is so god damn sexualized. This vent was inspired by a post I just saw on a different subreddit, one for a show I like.

I watch a lot of animated shows and a lot of them are considered “kid’s shows.” Personally it makes me uncomfortable when people sexualize media in general, but I swear to god the fandoms of some cartoons are just so annoying when it comes to this stuff.

The post I saw on the other sub was calling one of the villains of the show “hot” and saying that was somehow a redeemable quality. I get that allos sometimes experience sexual attraction to characters but how the FUCK is that a redeemable quality? Allos actually think that them experiencing sexual attraction to a person makes them more valuable, or more good. This character was definitely not written to have redeemable qualities and the poster acknowledged that and said that their only redeemable quality was that they were “hot”.

While there’s nothing wrong with liking villain characters it just annoys me when people treat being “hot” as a redeemable quality. The worst thing though was another person’s comment on the post. They said “They the animators must have given him asymmetrical eyes to show that he was irredeemable lmao.” Like….what?! Was the multiple genocides, abuse, and mind-control possession of almost an entire planet not irredeemable enough that this allo thinks the animators had to give the character a stereotypical “ugly” trait to show that they were irredeemable? Do allos actually think that having “ugly” traits makes you evil and less valuable, while having “hot” traits makes you more redeemable and more valuable?

And it’s not just this specific instance too. There are so many times (especially on Twitter) where judging people based on their looks/height is seen as ok. Sometimes a bad person will do something and the Twitter comments will be “Oh they have insert “ugly” trait, no wonder they’re like this,” or “We’ll listen to you when you don’t have “ugly” trait anymore,” or something ridiculous like that. On the reverse of that, sometimes I’ll see people on my feed say stuff like “Not only am I insert good quality here, I’m also hot.” It’s like, so? That doesn’t actually matter! Whenever anyone does anything bad ever, people always resort to body-shaming and virgin-shaming, rather than shaming them for the actual bad thing they did.

Anyways, this was just a vent about how frustrated I am at the allo world’s correlation between attractiveness and value as a person/whether they deserve forgiveness. Sorry if anyone was offended by this.

If you're a man, or attractive, you can't be asexual.

It just makes sense, right?

Well no, but my mother seems to believe men who are asexual are either rapists or have erectile dysfunction. No possibility of asexuality being a thing.

And an old man told me (idc if you see this), and I quote, "But I'm attracted to you, and I'm not attracted to asexuals."

KABOO, my asexuality just disappeared. Yours should too if someone is attracted to you. Just try it guys, it'll cure your years of suffering😃👍

Then both tell me they're not aphobes. Mhm, sure.

Are greysexuals accepted here?

So I read a wiki forum on greysexuals. Reading the definition of one I relate a lot to it so I was wondering if this sub Reddit is accepting of greysexual and hoping there’s more information shared about it and there’s other people who relate the same thing that I have.
