I'm allo, but i HATE how hypersexual our society is.

The title pretty much says it all, i'm an allo gay man and i hate how sex is portrayed in society. I get absolutely sick when people talk about sex in such a romanticized way as if it was some kind of life-changing experience, like no, it just isn't.


Our society is deeply misogynistic, heteronormative and hypersexual, which of course influences pretty much every aspect of our culture from arts to poetry, music, movies, language, shows and festivals. That makes me feel really uncomfortable and always think twice before consuming any piece of media.


Through my life i've seen many people, mostly cishet men, talk about sex in such dehumanizing and disgusting ways, mostly through the idea of virginity (which is just complete bullshit by the way) or straight up reducing women to it's private parts.


Although i'm gay, i avoid some gay spaces too because i really hate that whole top/bottom shit and i feel it plays by the rules of heteronormativity and hypersexuality.


Anyways, just wanted to share my thoughts and personal experiences and i hope you all can understand my point of view.

Is sexual attraction the main motivation to pursue someone?

I've never been in a relationship (34) and recently after learning the proper definition of asexual, it 100% applies to me. I've never experienced sexual attraction to a person, which I figured out after learning what sexual attraction is suppose to actually feel like. I do experience aesthetic attraction which sometimes gives a sort of lightening sensation throughout my body that lasts a second, but it very much feels not sexual.

I've never really had the motivation to actually get to really know someone I find aesthetically attractive except maybe to a small degree. I see all these guys trying to hit on women and putting in so much effort and motivation to talk to women, but I don't have any of that. So my question is, is it the sexual attraction that is the motivator for the relationship seeking behavior? It seems without sexual attraction I don't get the correct motivational biomarker indicators that would give me the drive to put in sufficient effort to get to know someone to see if a relationship is possible. Like I have to "force myself" to put myself out there, where it seems to be a natural consequence of desire for other people.

Not wanting sex is okay

I always hear people trying to normalise sex, being a sexual being and getting rid of purity culture which I could not agree more with. But i think people tend to forget to normalise not wanting sex. I grew up with a close bond with my mom and when I was a teen here and there came the topics of sex, not just with mt mom but in life, everyone telling you and saying how it's okay to want it, do it no matter how much or with who which of course is as It should be but it made me feel broken for not wanting it. I have drained myself over it so much thinking it wasnt normal and that I needed to want it. Eveyones secual needs are different and thats okay. We need to speak up more and normalise both wanting it and not wanting it!!♡

I was asked am I asexual

My cousin's friends (I have know them my whole life) asked me if I was asexual and a virgin. I do not talk about my sexual experiences, and most people have said I come off innocent. I am nice, reserved, and can be soft spoken, but I also have an intense side if needed. I am a male

I don't understand how this concept is so astronomical for some people. It's really that simple.

Have you ever experienced a friendship so close, it could easily be mistaken for romance? Or even a romance so laid-back, it could easily be mistaken for friendship?

Do asexuals want to be asexual?

I've been considering parts of my life recently, one of them being if I want to date or ever get married. During those conversations it came up that as someone who has never been in love, had any kind of crush or been in a relationship in 36 years I am likely asexual.

I'm unsure of this label, because I don't want to be asexual but multiple people have said that my view of relationships, lack of interest in masturbation, lack of interest in ONS or sexualizing women likely points to being both asexual and probably aromantic.

How would I actually know for sure?
