Lately, I have a feeling that I'm an asexual but I don't really and fully understand about that sexual orientation... From what I understand, asexual is a person who is attracted to someone romantically but not sexually and I feel the same way with the one I'm attracted to.... On the other hand, I have occasional sexual desire on some hunky muscle guys and been trying to imagine them when I masturbate especially when my hormones driving crazy... Does it negate to be an asexual??? I'm confused...
For me, it's like I look at a body, male or female, and I can appreciate it ie I like it, but I don't imagine having sex with it. Confusingly, if I sometimes look at a provocotive picture of a female, I will get an erection, but I know see it as an automatic response - I never get horny, or feel the need to have sex, I have yet to be physically aroused by men. On the rare occasion that I watch porn it has to be straight- neither gay nor lesbian envokes any kind of response. HTH
This is what Wikipedia says about it: "Asexuality (or nonsexuality) is the lack of sexual attraction to anyone, or low or absent interest in sexual activity." Not necessarily. One might be aromantic too (lack of romantic attraction). You might just be "not so sexual", but it's up to you decide which label you want to use.
Asexual just means you don't have sexual attraction to people. There are sexual people who don't have any desire to have sex for specific reasons, and asexuals who masturbate but lack attraction.
So, you mean I'm half-qualified to be an asexual? lol... Not that I'm looking for a label or such... Recently, I'm romantically attracted to a guy but have no sexual attraction to him but I do masturbate imaging other sexy guys, not him.... Maybe, I just lost libido to have enough sexual attraction or something.... The one with whom I wanna spend the rest of my life will definitely be someone I'm romantically attracted to... Sex would come later with that one, I guess.... I'm really confused about my sexuality... Maybe, I should lose my virginity to someone to give a try at experimenting...
