Being asexual in a world where sex is seen as the best thing ever SUCKS
Im sure Im not the only one who thinks this. Growing up and seeing my friends talk about sex and how it's the 'nicest thing in the world'. Or just the media in general calling people who never have sex losers. It's making me want to have sex just to feel this 'amazing feeling', which is strange because Im completely repulsed by it.
I horribly crave it. I want to see what Im missing out on. I don't wanna be a 'loser virgin', and I want to show my love to my future partners, as sex is usually seen as the ultimate way to prove your deep love for your s/o (people literally refer to sex as 'making love'). Im desperately craving something that I don't actually want. The actual thought of sex makes me feel yucky, but I want all the things Ive mentioned above. Its so confusing

hey I just need a little support right now!
so here's a little background information, I was raised in the Mormon church. I left but my whole family still goes.
anyway I was talking to my brother tonight about why I left and I told him that the biggest reason for me was how the church treats the LGBTQIA+ community. I was reading him a talk from a church leader and talking about how awful it was and he said that he agreed with everything that was said. I asked him if he thought being a part of the community was sinning and he just responded with "I think everyone is too concerned with the definition of sinning, everyone sins every day" so I asked him again and he said "I don't think it's necessarily a sin to be a part of the community but I do think it's a sin to act on any of those feelings" and then I just broke down sobbing and said "I don't know if you know this but I'm a part of the LGBTQIA+ community" and then he said, "that doesn't change how I feel about you but I stand by what I said before"
it's not like I can really "act" on being asexual so it's not like he would think that I'm a sinner or anything but it hurt so bad to hear my brother say those things directly to my face. I'm not even gay, I'm aesthetically attracted to guys so I come across as straight anyway, so it's not like what he said should be hurtful to me but that was just horrible. I'm just hurt and I feel like I shouldn't be, you know? I'm also so mad at him but I'm trying not to be because I definitely believe the church brainwashed our whole family.
sorry if this doesn't make sense or anything, this happened like 5 minutes ago and I'm now sobbing in my bed but I just needed to vent to anyone who could be comforting because I know my family won't. thanks for reading if you made it this far lol!

Vent about Christian views on asexuality
So I’m 20 years old and a biromantic ace girl. I’ve been in a loving relationship with my bf for 2 years now but my father still feels uncomfortable with me being alone with him.
I was raised in a Christian home and I do love God, but the older I get, the more I find myself disagreeing with commonly-held Christian beliefs on sexuality.
Recently, my bf and I had a trip away for a few days, just the two of us. A man and a woman. Alone.
Before I left, my father gave me “The Talk” (or some weak semblance of one) for the first time in my life. He warned me of the temptations of spending several days alone with my boyfriend and how we were both young, which increased the risk of ungodly things happening.
I’ve never experienced this in other circles. It always seems to be the Christians who are the most terrified of the temptations of sex. As an ace, I find myself having zero problems with that and it just seems like everyone around me is way too horny. (Ever wonder why Christians get married so young?)
What I’ve noticed a lot in conversation with other Christians (generally the older generations) is that sexuality is a significant part of a healthy, God-loving relationship. Sex seems to be taken for granted as a part of being human. Anyone deviating from that has some sort of problem or is lying.
It kills me that even as a grown woman, I cannot be trusted with my own partner. If I tell anyone I’m ace, they simply won’t believe me.
Alright, rant over. Does anyone else have similar experiences?
