Just had the most affirming and wonderful Healthcare experience

I've been having a lot of issues with both my period and GI issues,and hips, and everything, I'm falling apart essentially, so my doc ordered ultrasounds and xrays be done.

I'm sitting here in the clinic waiting on xrays after having the most wonderful echo experience in my life. I'm used to getting on that table and being a slab of meat they prod aggressively while I try not to pee. But she was gentle and reassuring, and explained everything she was doing and talked every step through. And then came time for the dumb wand. But she asked a question I was never asked before. Usually techs just shove that bad boy in there without talking. But she asked, are you sexually active and is it with men. And I said, no, I'm asexual. And she said, then I don't think I want to put you through this discomfort.

I can't get over it. One simple tweak to the sexually active question and she was like "this will be uncomfortable for you, let's not and see if we can get what we need without it". And she did!

Husband of 15 years realized he is asexual - how do we proceed?

My husband and I have been together since college - for about 15 years now and have a 2yo child. He recently came to the realization that he is asexual and does not want to engage in virtually any kind of physical relationship/intimacy moving forward. We care about each other a lot but have certainly fell out of love over the years and have had a lot bumps in our relationship. We are discussing options for moving forward, which include divorce, living together but being separated, or staying together but trying an open relationship of some sort. No matter what, we envision remaining a major part of each others’ lives and hope to remain very close friends.

We are both very dedicated parents and can’t imagine splitting time with our child and worry about the impact it would have on him. At the same time, I feel like I’m sacrificing my happiness and having the opportunity to find a new partner if I stay (but also know there’s no guarantee I’ll even find someone/can’t even wrap my head around dating again…). I’m just torn in two.

Does anyone have any advice? Really struggling here and can’t figure out what the right thing to do is.

Are there any aces who write/read smut?

Honestly, I’m just curious. How many of you guys read/write smut? What are your thoughts on it?

Sexualized deodorant is weird

Today I noticed something on my mom's deodorant canister. The scent of this deodorant was "Sexy Intrigue." Or at least, I assume that was the scent. It just said "sexy intrigue" in a noticeable spot near the middle of the can. It was regular spray deodorant made by Dove. I don't understand. What is sexual about deodorant?

can I identify as asexual if I experience sexual attraction?

I'm assuming not, because most everything I've read has said that asexual rule #1 is no sexual attraction, I'm mainly asking here to see if anyone can relate or if there is a label for what I'm experiencing.

I feel sexual attraction, 99% sure about that, get aroused, masturbate, have kinks and fantasies etc. the idea of actually having sex can range from want to to repulsed by the idea to wanting to do it as a form of self harm. I've never actually had sex or done anything physically sexual with another person though.

the idea of another person finding me sexually attractive/wanting to have sex with me can range from "that's okay" to having panic attacks thinking about the possibility. I've also occasionally thought that I would want my partner to find me sexually attractive, but that's rare.

the one thing that has never changed is the thought that I would be perfectly happy going my entire life as a virgin, whether or not in that moment I like the idea of sex.

Ace Book recommends?

Does anyone have any good asexual book recommendations? I’ve been wanting to buy some but don’t know which ones are worth the read or have actual good representation. (I didn’t know what flair to put so I just put represent lol) :]🖤🩶🤍💜

I feel so free

Ever since I found out I was asexual a month or so ago I’ve felt so free not only that a few weeks after I then became aromatic too. I’ve just never felt so free like I don’t have to worry about any norms or standards.
