How do you guys feel about the statement, "Asexuality isn't a sexuality, it's the lack of one."

My friend said this, and I wasn't sure what to think of it. They said that asexuals and aromantics are 'valid but not lgbt' :/

Wish Me Luck

I've gone out with a guy a few times and I really like him. We're going out for the third time tomorrow. There is a chance he could be ace, but statistically speaking, he probably isn't. I'm planning on telling him that I'm asexual tomorrow. I'm sure he'll be chill about it, but I'm still nervous.

Wish me luck. (Advice is also welcome)

A lot of Christians don't understand abstinence vs asexuality

Do any of you guys like the idea of sex or sexual things but then hate actually trying them out? I'm trying to see if I'm ace or not.

Do allos actually like the thought of someone imagining having sex with them?

I once read on a self-love insta: "You are the reason someone masturbates" and I just felt so violated and disgusted and just overall grossed out. Do allos actually like that thought? Do they like to be objectified/ sexualized?
I once had a probably allo boyfriend and I was really into Yoga at the time and told him about the different Yoga types, e.g. Hot Yoga. And his response just was "Isn't all Yoga you do hot Yoga?" Like, eww. Just let me live! How do they make everything sexual?
I also told him about an Influencer who always walks around her appartment naked in the summer. For self-love and self-acceptance reasons. And he asked if we could do it too, in a very suggestive voice. And when I said no, he thought I found his body disgusting. (I didn't know I was ace back then, I thought I was demi)
So yeah, I probably wouldn't date an allo again. But this got a little of track. So, back to the initial question: Would an allo like that or was it just toxic masculinity or something?

Not wanting to come out

Does anyone else not wanna come out just because they dont want to explain asexuality and all the questions that come with it. Like I know my parents would accept me but coming out just seems like it would take alot of effort, time and preperation.

I mean, there were physical changes, sure. But all the talk of "hormones this hormones that" felt like it was about some alternate version of humanity. Actually, not 100% sure if this is just an ace thing or not

My boyfriend (22M) and I (21F) are demisexual and have never experienced romantic or sexual desire to anyone else before dating. But after 6 months and our first time, we're constantly horny. Is this a honeymoon phase?

We have known each other since childhood as close friends, but started dating 6 months ago. Prior to dating, we have never experienced or cared about romantic or sexual attraction to anyone. Recently, we started discussing and exploring our sexuality as well as making future plans to try out more sexual forms of affection. After the first time, it was like a switch flipped. We're horny for each other 24/7 and can't keep our hands off each other.

I'm really content and in a really comfortable place, and I know he is as well. But I'm worried this might be just a honeymoon phase as a lot of people seem to call it. Will we eventually lose interest in each other once the craze fades?

Am I valid If I am a Heteroromantic Asexual?

But only Demisexual towards women, the opposite gender, with no chance at all at being attracted to the same gender?
