I think it’s possible for people to not experience any sexual attraction and I can empathize with them. I also get how people who have no interest in sex might still have interest in companionship/partnership with another person. However, I don’t understand how the asexual community also tries to insist that sometimes asexual people do want to have sex. At that point, it ceases to be asexual and becomes “low libido.” I also really don’t understand the push to include asexuals with LGB people. The absence of sexuality doesn’t mean it should automatically be lumped in with same-sex attracted people.

All my opinions summed up:

Asexual aromantics: live your best life

Asexual romantics: live your best life. Just understand that the whole never wanting sex thing is a dealbreaker for most people. You should have very honest conversations with potential partners to avoid heartache on both sides.

Aromantics who like sex: you’re literally the definition of a fuckboy and should consider talking to someone.
