so sick of remembering sex as traumatic
most of the time we had sex it was normal consent, like on the scale of enthusiastic consent to coerced consent it was always in that middle of willing consent and sometimes unwilling consent. so like there’s nothing majorly bad going on there. I just kind of interpret it ‘wish that could’ve happened differently’. anyway. whenever I see sexual stuff it makes me feel panicky, it reminds me of sex like it’s a bad thing. I remember my ex in a good light in a bad situation. I remember my discomfort. but I consented. I feel like I’m in such a grey area here
sorry for my rambling, I’m about to sleep this panic off haha

Once again something I liked reminded someone else of sex and now it’s ruined for me…

Anyone else annoyed by random out of the context sex scenes in movies?
Like dude, if I wanted to watch porn, I'd go watch Pornhub, not watch fukin' a horror movie. Most of the scenes are irrelevant and unnecessary fanservice and I don't need it.

New aroace book: Dear Wendy by Ann Zhao
the cover is so pretty!!
Synopsis: Dear Wendy's Sophie and Jo, two aromantic and asexual students at Wellesley College, engage in an online feud while unknowingly becoming friends in real life, in this dual POV Young Adult contemporary debut from Ann Zhao
Sophie Chi is in her first year at Wellesley College (despite her parents’ wishes that she attend a “real” university, rather than a liberal arts school) and has long accepted her aromantic and asexual identities. Despite knowing she’ll never fall in love, she enjoys running an Instagram account that offers relationship advice to students at Wellesley. No one except her roommate knows that she’s behind the incredibly popular "Dear Wendy" account.
When Joanna “Jo” Ephron―also a first-year student at Wellesley―created their “Sincerely Wanda” account, it wasn't at all meant to be serious or take off like it does―not like Dear Wendy’s. But now they might have a rivalry of sorts with Dear Wendy? Oops . As if Jo’s not busy enough having existential crises over gender, the fact that she’ll never truly be loved or be enough, or her few friends finding The One and forgetting her!
While tensions are rising online, Sophie and Jo are getting closer in real life, bonding over their shared aroace identities. As their friendship develops and they work together to start a campus organization for other a-spec students, can their growing bond survive if they learn just who’s behind the Wendy and Wanda accounts?
With its exploration of a-spec identities, college life, and more, this platonic comedy, perfect for fans of Netflix’s The Half of It and Alice Oseman’s Loveless , is ultimately a love story about two people who are not―and will not―be in love!
I am so excited to read this!!!

I kinda fit into the "Aces are innocent beans" stereotype and I'm scared that people get the wrong idea of asexuality when I tell them what asexuality means to me
Okay, so I'm aegosexual and I shift between sex neutral and sex repulsed. When sex or sexuality is discussed irl, face to face, I become sex repulsed for some reason and only manage to say "I'm ace" and don't take part in conversation, even though I should mention that I read smut and look at R34 sometimes.
People who I talk with about these topics know what asexuality is to some extent and they're just "Oh, okay, makes sense" and don't ask more questions about asexuality.
I'm also seen as innocent in some situations and people protect me from the lewdest content, which I find nice, but I understand that many aces are hurt by this stereotype and behavior.
If someone asks me what asexuality is, I will tell them that every ace is different, and I'll tell them everything from sex repulsion to aces who like sexual stuff. But if they ask my personal view and feelings, I will tell them what I just described earlier.
Can anyone else relate or am I just an "innocent weirdo" who stains the community?😂

How do I date someone that's asexual when I'm not myself?
I (f/21) think I'm not asexual. I just have a pretty low libido and see sex more like a chore than something to enjoy. There are other reasons for me not to want to have sex, too. One of them being vaginismus. How do I date someone (m) that's asexual? If I put asexual in my dating profile it would be a lie. On the other hand, it is pretty damn weird to write "looking for an asexual partner.".
I fear people might suspect something weird behind it.
I want to ask you guys, how to approach asexual people when I'm not asexual myself.
(Or is it okay to put the asexual label on my profile and explain the whole thing on the first date? Would you be mad?)
