AVEN Post of the Week
|
It's hard to imagine what it must be like. In a completely sexcentric society. From the Songs of Solomon and before, to sitcoms and sci fi. How is it possible for an Asexual person to find peace with him -or herself, and have some sense of wholeness, when all traditional wisdoms of normality is Sex Is Good And Normal? I can't help but think that is a bigger obstacle than for me figuring out my options. At least the culture I grew up in has a million and more little roadmaps to my needs.
– Nuit, an ally.

• … that asexual relationships are based on the same elements that are also important for many sexual people, like understanding, commitment, trust, emotional intimacy and communication?
• … that for some asexuals arousal is a fairly regular occurrence, though it is not associated with a desire to find a sexual partner? Some asexuals will occasionally masturbate, but feel no desire for partnered sexuality. Other asexual people experience little or no arousal.
