What are asexual stereotypes that bother you?

I’ve never really heard of many, probably because there is literally almost no representation in media, but I’m just kinda curious.

Anyone else felt obligated to have a crush when they were younger?

I told my parents I am ace

I have never posted here before, but I need te share this with someone, anyone.

My parents always believed I would be lesbian. Reality is, I feel more attracted to men than women, but over the course of the past couple of years, partly because of this wonderful community, I now know for certain that I am and always have been asexual. Something has always been missing within me. I do long for companionship, I am quite a social person, but you all know how asexuality works by now. That specific feeling, that longing, is not there.

I am sure my parents would have been fine if I came out as lesbian. But I didn't. I came out as asexual. And my father believes I am just trying to "be part of a crowd" again like I did as a teen when I was wearing only black for a year or two. I am trying to "put a stamp on myself, just to be able to belong".

It's so hypocritical. If I had come out as lesbian it would have been acceptable, all fine. But no, I am being stamped as a "child that is looking for a crowd to belong". Mind you, I am 26 years old. I am far from a child anymore. I am having a hard time wrapping my head around his reaction. And my mom just sat there, just listening but not joining the conversation.

Anyone else had a situation like this?

Am I asexual?

hello so I'm 20 and I am a virgin. and I feel like I am asexual. so I think it all started when I was 18, when I was still a "boy" (I'm a transwoman, btw) and I have this female friend of mine whom I almost did "it" with but I eventually declined because I couldn't feel a strong sexual attraction towards her and I thought I was gay, it happened like atleast thrice with three different women. and then this year (20) I tried hitting it with men but like IDK I always decline because I really just don't feel much sexual attraction. Yeah, i find people attractive but like I just can't see them as sexual stuff you know and like I used to act hypersexual before but like that was only because people like it LOL I don't enjoy it myself and I cringe everytime I remember acting that way LOL I mean, I do get aroused watching porn and stuff but like, I just can't see doing it myself. IDK I am kinda confused really.
