My Asexuality or rather Nonsexual isn’t the only reason I’ve been rejected.

I’m hoping this helps people. (The NSFW tag isn’t working. Somebody contact the mods about it then remove this parentheses part.)


I’ve also been rejected for my acne.

I’m turning 33 in September, 2025 and I still get acne. But these days it is on my chest, back and maybe where the ear piece of my glasses sit in the bit if skin in between my eye and ear.

So clearly my gripe on acne anymore is the location of acne.

I quit mascara at 30. I still own concealer for the parts of my face nobody can see.

Also…

Faces aren’t symmetrical; but and they do go to the right a bit. Like duh that’s what that part of it all is. But my facial structure goes to the left. That is a REJECTED moment too all the time.

I guess I’m just one of those unlucky with my face and body as I also have mild autism; the Forrest Gump autism. Where certain life things I can’t do the doing part of no matter how much I try and want to and know how to.

Yeah I guess if I ever do find my cis masculine butch asexual lesbian woman it will be interdependent and on the outside look like a parent child dynamic although not a parent child dynamic.


But I digress.

I don’t care what my face looks like anymore as long as I’m more clear skinned than not and I have my short short buzzy hair cut.

I guess some of us will just always have acne in some way till death from puberty.

Remember just because is and are as is and are doesn’t mean choosing.

In other words; give people a chance. Who knows maybe they are great just don’t look and sound like it. Of course until you’ve known them for ages.


I get sensitivity issues as to why I skip out on the sex part of being with another. I also just don’t want to. I learned about periods and the safety aspects of that stuff and sex when I was a kid and called it a day.

I will kiss as long as not touching my face. I will hug long as from behind and not any of the ones where your face is smooched in. I will cuddle long ass not the spooning way.

But to reject others for the most mundane things is baffling.

Coming Out & Cutting Off

So, I've recently came out to three friends after somewhat recently discovering I was ace, didn't really specify any labels or whatever, I just told them I was asexual.


It went well! One was curious and asked me how all the different attractions worked, and the other two were indifferent and just chill about it. The first one did say "maybe it's too soon to say that you're aromantic and asexual", I then affirmed him that it's not, and he understood (he means well, he's just always curious and questions literally everything).

A while ago I made a post in the aromantic subreddit about a different friend of mine, who's very unapproving of me being aromantic, long story short: He wants to fix me, randomly asks if I've "fixed my problem yet", have had multiple arguments about it, and one where he snapped, yelled out that "IT'S AN ISSUE!" and said I need a miracle from God to fix me.

In one of the arguments, I suggested I might be asexual as well (this was before I knew), and he said, "Oh nah, if you're asexual I'm cutting you off." Or something along those lines.

Funnily enough, few months later I realize I'm asexual and I highkey find it funny. Besides his clear disapproval and ignorance, he's overall a weird and childish dude anyway, basically an immature male pass-a-round.

So yeah, oddball is gonna get cut off.

Peace over anything.

Friends telling me I can't think I'm asexual because of a single kiss

But like, it wasn't that. It was every other aspect of my life, the fact I didn't enjoy the kiss at all felt like the last puzzle piece I needed. And now I'm doubting myself because everyone are saying 16 is way to young to label myself, and that choosing this label means I'm not gonna let myself ever try anything even if I'm not actually asexual. Plus no one seems to be able to actually explain what sexual attraction is, which is just confusing. What do I do

Is physical arousal + different types of attraction = sexual attraction? ( im sorry )



……



Im sorry for the execive asking i am just confused and i am genuinely curious.


Idk if i asked this before. I forgot. Pls tell me if i did or not so i would know.



Soooooooo yeah, ppl in my enviorment says its sexual attraction is you have any physical arousal while being attracted to someone ( non-sexually )

And others says its not.



Idk, maybe it depends for some ppl.


Sooo yeah, i dont wanna make a long post sooo like i said on the title. Does physical arousal + different types of attraction = sexual?


I would like to know

Can asexuals technically have kinks?

So I'm asexual. I've known since I was 17 (that's when I found out what it's called) and I'm 23 now and still a 100% sure of my sexuality. I've never wanted to have sex with anyone, I've never felt sexual attraction to anyone. But I do masturbate. Now here comes my dilemma. I have things that sorta turn me on? Or that I like in the porn I consume, right... So for example kinks like exhibitionism and stuff. But does that count as HAVING that kink? Because I'm asexual, I would NEVER want to have sex in public, but watching porn where that happens is so hot. Basically, all the kinks I like (long list) are only a turn on if it's other people participating and I have nothing to do with it so are they technically MY kinks?? Bro like I'm so confused. Whenever people ask me if I have kinks, idk what the hell to tell them. Like if I say "yes, I have a piss kink" they would think that I'd need to participate in that to cum or something, BUT I DON'T, like it's literally the opposite - I MUSTN'T be participating in order to cum. I'm scared of telling people what I like in case they'll misunderstand... All of my kinks are theoretical rather than practical, I guess.

If anyone wants to give their two cents on this, I'd gladly read you replies.

how often do you experience sexual attraction

Hi so im not sure im asexual, i have never been in a relationship or had sex so i can’t figure out my stance on it. I has never been a problem for me that i’m still a virgin (19F) and i think even if i find a partner i wont have sex right away. But my question is do you feel sexuall attraction? I don’t know if i have ever been sexually attracted to anyone, generally i’ve only had maybe 2 “crushes” but i don’t get those either. I rarely ever even feel aroused or when i do i can just ignore it. I can’t even imagine what sexual attraction would be other than like thinking “i would hit”. Is that it?

15 and Ace?

I’ve come to ask the community for advice or an answer to my question.

To put it bluntly, can I know I’m asexual at only 15 years old?

I’m actually closer to 16, but still, I’ve never felt any sexual attraction in all 15 and 11 months of my life. Can I truly know that I’m ace this young?

I ask this because of how young I am, and I’ve been told that I’ll “change my mind when I’m older” when expressing that nothing has made me feel sexually attracted.

Almost all of my peers and friends(who are all the same age as me) often tell me about their sexual attraction to characters they like, actors, and even pornography. I’ve seen porn. It doesn’t do it for me. I know I’m certainly not aromantic, and can feel attracted to a person’s looks (but mostly their personality), but I’ve never once thought about what they’d look like unclothed or inside of me.

But it’s like it’s all my friends can think about. I seldom see things in a sexual light, and my friends are often the ones to point it out when they find something sexy.

I don’t see this as shameful, and I figure that this is something normal for people around our age group, but I’m wanting to know if there’s something wrong with me.. or if I’m just late to the game.

Will I change?

Feeling confused

I (22nb) am feeling really confused about my sexuality as of late. Throughout my life I thought I might’ve been asexual many times. Like 7th grade and then junior year and then a few times in college I had conversations abt it but I feel like people have just always not encouraged taking on the label. I made a friend recently who is asexual and hearing abt their life and attraction made me look into it and it all feels like… right? I mean I think maybe I’m somewhere on the spectrum but not fully. But today my friends were talking abt sex and I like just opted out of the conversation and it felt like I was able to not pretend/perform in the conversation as I usually would have. Cuz I feel like I just pretend to be interested in it all. Which is a weird thing for me just to figure out but literally every time I’ve had sex I shake uncontrollably and feel nauseous and have to take anxiety meds before.
Edit: I def feel romantic attraction but for physical I have always had to pick someone as a “celebrity crush” and I have never once thought about having sex with someone or thought someone was sexy upon meeting them
