    It’s very interesting that you say that because it’s one of the reasons why I don’t simply call myself “asexual” and why I don’t identify with the community.

    I remember discovering the asexual community over 10 years ago and being excited that I finally found people that are like me. But then I was immediately met with confusion at how…sexual…everyone was. People would masturbate regularly or even have sex regularly. I didn’t get it and it didn’t seem to fit to me.

    A better descriptor for me would be someone that has a non-existent libido and cannot physically feel sexual pleasure, but that’s a bit tmi for a general post.
