I saw a post on poledancing on this sub and wanted to add myself as asexual poledancer to this discussion.

I'm not really ace at all, and I don't think I ever was.
I guess it was just a placeholder while I figured things out. I got a little too comfortable with the label, it was a safe in-between.
I knew for sure I wasn't a straight girl and thinking of myself like that made me feel really weird for some reason. I didn't think I was a lesbian either, because I didn't like women that way. So what was I?
It turns out it was the gender part that was wrong, not the attraction. I'm a gay man. It took me a long time to understand and accept that.
I must say goodbye to this community, and thank you for all the support you've offered me throughout the years. I am really glad that you have words to describe yourselves, and I do still strongly believe that asexuality is real and valid, it just wasn't me.

VENT : NO, I DO NOT WANT TO "TRY" IT!
Hello all! Hope you are all doing well and are safe! I just wanted to vent anonymously about the reaction I receive when I share or open up about my sexual orientation.
I absolutely loathe those people who tell me "but you need to try it out first to find out if you like it or not". Like, what the hell? How do you know if you are straight? Did you try out same-sex and come to the conclusion that you are straight and attracted to the opposite-sex? It's so annoying. Also, as someone who isn't sexually attracted to anyone, I don't want to "try" it because it would be awkward and bad for the other person. Ever thought of that?
And now, to those who say, "You just need to get laid or railed, or you just need to a good fuck," and other such nonsense. Sorry, but you don't sound cool. Rather, these words make my skin crawl in disgust and horror. Please. For god's sake. Or, to those who claim, "you just haven't met the right person yet". Sorry, what? You think the right person will be the one who will convince me that my identity is false? Then, maybe you also haven't met the right opposite-gender yet, as a straight person? Maybe you should put yourself out there and "try". How uncomfortable would you feel if I said this to you, huh? Ever thought about that?
No, it is not a disease that I am not sexually attracted to you all. And, how does it affect you at all that there's one human being who doesn't want to have sex? Are you in danger of being harmed or suffering any damages? How difficult is it for you to accept a "no"? No! I am not confused. I am pretty sure I don't feel anything sexually at all when I see you. It's not an offence. It is my orientation. And, you are free to leave, my friend, if it is a deal-breaker for you. No need to take my orientation as a challenge and think that "I will change this person". It's disgusting and extremely uncomfortable. I feel like throwing up when someone says that. Leave me alone, please. I am who I am. I don't need to be "changed". I am not depressed that I don't feel sexual attraction. I don't feel that there is something wrong with me. But, if you think there's something wrong with me, there's definitely something wrong with you!
How could you all be so freaking threatened by a person who doesn't want sex? Like, we are not even doing anything (literally!).
