the funny thing about being ace

the funny thing about being ace is that we aren't exaggerating when we say our favorite songs are better than sex

Unnecessary Sex Scenes

Why do TV shows always have to have sex scenes in them? I'm just trying to watch a show like Law & Order and then next thing I know, there's a straight couple having sex on camera. It's super unnecessary and totally irrelevant to the plot of the show overall, at least in my opinion it is. What are your guys' thoughts on this?

So goddamn lonely today. (Not so much "Rant" as "a little bit of venting...")

I wish I could go to pride events. I wish I could participate in my college's LGBT club without feeling like I have this monstrous secret.

My parents won't admit to being homophobic. They say "the lifestyle is sinful but the people are still valid" but then act like every other homophobic asshole: judging feminine-ish guys or ladies with a bit too much machismo for their liking or God forbid a same-sex pair holding hands and making eye contact. (Imo, they can privately believe it is a sin all they want as long as they still treat people like people but they don't.)

They make assumptions about you and hold onto them like their lives depend on their opinions being right. If they knew I was even leaning toward not-straight friends they'd lose it. Let alone trying to identify myself to them as anything ending in "-sexual."

"You just need to get out there." "You will find a boyfriend eventually." "Be more sure of yourself."

If I weren't stuck living at home, it wouldn't be a problem. If I had my own transportation, it would be less of a problem. If I didn't struggle so much with social anxiety and depression in the first place none of these things would even be the case!

But I do, so I'm just stuck over here being jealous of y'all other aces being super open and going to pride events and finding IRL Ace/LGBT friends when I'm all alone.

Okay, maybe it is a bit of a rant but I'm sad and PMS-ing to hell and back today and I needed to get it out. I'm not normally this way. Thank you and I love you all. (Platonically.) Imma go cry into a pint of rocky road now, if that's cool.

My asexuality is killing me now

When it comes to the spectrum of things, I can't feel anything sexual at all which in turn is hell for my situation with my family. I'm 21 and Im being bombarded by the question of when I will get married and have children, my sexuality is being put into question by my family and the bullying is rampant, my own dad said that it's embarrasing that at my age I have never had a girlfriend. Living in the hispanic culture and pretty much in the backwoods, I'm a latino red neck who loves farming and agriculture, it has helped me not leave my country for ''a better life'' but as any latino, I should be having my 2 child by now according to my parents. IT IS HELL. worse part is being tall and good looking makes it even worse because girls talk to me first some times and then they invite me to local festivals where people get drunk and have sex yet im afraid to tell her that even her beautiful aesthetic body doesn't turn me on. One girl just flat out told me that ''is it bcs you have a small penis or something'' and that one was something else because I don't but the term asexual has not hit latin america. all those dates were forced ofc, I only enjoy the first 2 dates with a girl because after that they start giving sex hints etc. Tbh I wouldn't mind having a gf and she can have sex with other people I would support her sexuality, but im aware that such thing is not one I can present straight foward and the mentality for it isn't here. I would be happy if I met an ace girl here in real life and we can just hide what we are and pretend we are straight normal couple. but that won't happen and in turn this hell continues, do such girls even exist to start? My asexuality is in the extreme, kissing or any contact that is sexual is no no for me, I have a deep desire to want a family but I don't want the sexual part. Worse part of being a guy is that if you are ace you it's not like I can just order sperm to have babies or something, surrogates are expensive , so thats another thing that depresses me :( . Being asexual is hell for us that live in less understanding countries. My friends even laugh at me when I say that I just care for a girls personality and how their bodies do not turn me on at all. they think im just being romantic and cliche, and its hurtful that my way of natural being is always put into question
