I honestly question the idea of Asexuality.Like if it even exists then there would have to actually be something biologically wrong.Unlike homosexuality which most would argue about the gay uncle hypothesis,there wouldn't any reason for asexuality to exist.

TBH real “asexual” people exist, not every single person wants to have sex in their life and that’s ok. What’s not ok is how they turned it into another orientation where it clearly doesn’t belong in the LGB/LGBTQ.

That being said, there is still some part of people who felt like that term described them - and now if they have enough brain cells, they’re against the queer crowd who tells them to feel oppressed, feel queer, etc. Too bad they’re not heard enough.

And yes, the “asexuals can have sex, watch porn, masturbate!!!” is unfortunately a “valid” stance of some people, perhaps spicy straights/spicy homos/spicy bis but also people brainwashed by the queer propaganda. This is really gross. Anyone who dares to criticize this stance must be bigot, because they don’t know what logic is.

I really don't think it is real.

There's quite a lot of evidence that repressing sexual desire leads to aggression and violence in society so I don't think it's something we should be encouraging unless it's proven to be a good or neutral thing.

I've never met an asexual who didn't have a pretty clear motive for identifying that way and was repressing their feelings to fit.

I agree that certain people who repress their desires are aggressive and it leads to distress. But then, you have people who are fine with it because they really don’t care for sex. There were even some famous people who profited the society, like Nikola Tesla. Would he belong to the same group that for example certain priests who act as if they need to be celibate but in reality molest someone or want to molest? Certainly not.

That’s sad you never met a person conscious enough with it. Well, it’s super rare but people who are happy and sexless exist. Just perhaps they don’t call themselves asexual, since this is the label that already became cringe; too much LGBT association and after all, a push to identify with the queer community which is certainly full of unhappy people hiding their real selves.
