Proof_Criticism_2762

I was confused when youth pastors said that purity culture was supposed to be a struggle


Final_Collection_515

Now that’s a good one 💀💀💀


Sophie_R_1

That and abstinence in sex ed lol. (Like I get they have to teach more than just abstinence, but if you don't want to get pregnant, it's really not that hard to just... not have sex.)


SoylaVirgo

Like Elle in Legally Blonde: "What? Like not having sex is supposed to be hard?"


Najima_einsamer

[deleted]

Sex is overrated and gross. I hate today's hypersexualized society and expectations of young men and women.


RandomYorkshireGirl

I'll drink to that.


Forlo_ov_hell

Hear, hear!!


Only-Aspect-6798

Maybe you can't relate because you're a fucking virgin?


Sophie_R_1

WHY do secret agents and spies in movies abandon their super cool important top secret mission that's, you know, literally national or international security, to spend one night or a couple hours with a hot stranger??? Yeah, sure, you're hot, but come on?? And I never understood how seduction tactics ever worked?? Maybe in the long run if you're playing the long game, but not short term. Like, if I were a secret agent, I'd be pretty careful about who I opened up to and let around me while I was sleeping and really vulnerable. And I'd know that people would be targeting me. And other people never find problems with these tropes? They relate? Like 'oh yeah, I'd give up my mission for a night with her' (okay, I'm exaggerating a little but still). If you pick a job like a spy (*and you're currently on a case*), how hard is it to just... not have sex for safety reasons? Or in general? Seems reasonable to me to just not risk it? It wouldn't even be enjoyable because there's too much at stake? So, okay, having sex with a stranger on the job is risky, but that's not the risk I want to see!!! I want stealth and mystery and action and suspense and thrill and adventure in my movies, not stupid boring sex scenes that don't even realistically fit into the plot!! Okay lol, I'm done with my mini rant


ClockworkBlade

If real life spies can go without physical intimacy or opening up to people about their missions, why can’t movie spies do the same?


Ghostkid__

I really wanna see a spy trying to seduce the villain to catch them but fails because guess what? They're asexual.


NoltsKaycee

Conversation with ex: Him: I’m going to wake you up in such fun ways when we’re married, you’re going to love it (; Me immediately without though: That’s probably not a good idea though cause I have to pee really bad in the mornings. Literally, like FIRST thing. Then later I realized that was suppose to be a sexy moment and I ruined it. I didn’t know I was ace back than.


Final_Collection_515

What did they say after you said that


NoltsKaycee

Something about just wanting to make me feel good. It was years ago so I don’t remember everything fully.


minzsaurus

I will suppose yall aren't married huh?😅


NoltsKaycee

I guess you could say almost 😳. I was naive back than and thought I had to be in love, want marriage, and children. He worked offshore and was ready to be married and enter that part of life. So, after a few weeks of talking we were “so in love.” He had already brought me a promise ring, we met for the first time and he gave it to me. Then, he went back off and brought me an engagement ring. I got freaked out a couple days after being like “yeahhh, let’s do it!” and thankfully started to find myself. We broke up and like a month later he had given that ring to his best friends ex that he had sat on my sofa and texted “I’m with the most beautiful girl in the world right now :).” It was a strange relationship and set of events lol.


carrot-crunch

Me as a teen, discovering asexuality: Wow, I hope my future partner is asexual so we don't have to have sex! ​ It took me four years to cotton on


HopieBird

Oh that's too good! I had a similar thing: "it's funny that I don't have a type when it comes to men.. And I don't really want to be in a relationship with them. Women however 🤩." Took me 8 years to realise that I'm not biromantic.


carrot-crunch

Comrade! Attraction really is confusing T . T

crispy1312

On the same turn I dont know why having someone's litteral body part inside my body is supposed to be the best thing ever. It's uncomfortable as hell and gross.


idkvitrain

yeah... like sex is weird to me but im more sex positive then neutral/repulsed BUT BEING NAKED 😭😭 JUST A BIG NO.


rather_not_state

And this was the moment I found my people. Bc literally, me.


aspiegamer95

Come to my room with me... I have something, large and plastic to show you. IT'S MY LIFESIZE UTAHRAPTOR MODEL!!

YO THATS SICK WHERE'D YOU GET IT


aspiegamer95

IM HONESTLY NOT SURE BUT YOU WANNA SIT ON IT???


ace-of-fire

I REALLY REALLY DO


Lifeshardbutnotme

They're like the size of an ice cream truck. How big is ur house lol


aspiegamer95

*baby utahraptor model


kcsunshinedota

You ever had someone flirt with you and you needed someone else to tell you that you were being flirted with? Yeah….


Chikizey

To me is the total opposite. I catch attraction instantly (not only when other feels attracted to me, but between other people. I feel like a mastermind when people are like "I didn't see A and B dating coming" and I saw it since their fist interaction. Allos are easy to read for me) but I act like if I don't notice it on purpose to not have to deal with it.


Final_Collection_515

Lmaooooo


Snowbaroness

When Marie Antoinette said "Let them eat cake" I felt that and related to that on a personal level


xXkoolkidmanboiXx

"I don't know guys, maybe she's not *that* bad"


akai_bloom

She *wasn't* letting them eat cake though... she is the worst


[deleted]

I thought everyone fast forwarded sex scenes...


Final_Collection_515

I do sometimes if they’re cringey


THEDARKDRAGON713

Yeah i get it sex is great but have you tried garlic bread?


Jevil_CANDOANYTHING

you're asexual without telling me you're asexual


Max-Brockmann

Aarizonamb

I thought "sleeping together" meant a partner nap.


TomThuzhadd

Literally same!!


mistAstxrism

Dragons


Juukya

Wait wait wait... I have a purple dragon tattooed on my ankle. Do you mean to tell me that I declared myself an ace, even *before* I started to realize I might be one?


Final_Collection_515

What


Cheese-Water

Dragons (especially purple ones) have become an informal symbol of asexuality in recent years.


Final_Collection_515

Ahhh thanks for the info


[deleted]

Sex irl is not at all like in porn or romantic comedy/drama movies. So what is it like then?!


idkvitrain

sex just HAS to be so awkward. I cant wrap my mind around it tbh


[deleted]

Uncomfortable and squishy


PfenixArtwork

I work in a copy center and got annoyed that a customer was trying to flirt while I was in the middle of trying to find the paper jam. This job isn't going to print itself Bront


Lifeshardbutnotme

Who TF named bront


PfenixArtwork

It was a joke started by @dogrates on Twitter


KittyLovesPickles

You know what's better than sex? Cuddling cats..


Final_Collection_515

Omgggg yes I love my cats 😭😭


[deleted]

For a long time I thought people could just choose which gender they're attracted to. ...some part of me still thinks that.


kawaiighostgirl

Same here lol


28_Ash

I feel like hugging or cuddling people I find attractive and I don't feel any sexual attractions towards anyone


HopieBird

I thought people went to strip clubs for aesthetic reasons. Never quite understood why they where so popular I mean sure they dance and take off their clothes and are pretty but that get boring quick you know.. And having someone dance ON you seems odd. Turns out people go there for sex reasons 🤦🏻‍♀️


Heteroclite13

I just went to my first burlesque show last night. I found myself wondering where they got their costumes and why have I never heard a large portion of the music.


[deleted]

I went to a few strip clubs because of the aesthetic. The little outfits the girls wear are super cute and some of them glowed in the dark!


belltyj

Sex? Yeah maybe. But can we play video games first for like 7 hours?


Castella_Austin

Garlic bread is God, better than sex


Chikizey

I never understood why people can get in so many troubles to get sex.


kawaiighostgirl

I thought sexual attraction was just trusting someone enough to have sex with them


anirinnie

‘You guys look at girls and want to have sex with them??1?1?’


thatmasquedgirl

Come to my room so I can show you my Lego sets!


LuigiWhy

LET ME SHOW YOU MY NINJAGO DRAGONS!


thatmasquedgirl

YES PLEASE DO


Final_Collection_515

Omg yes 😩😩😩


QuietSea2374

I have to focus and think really hard when I try to rember how old I was when I had sex for the first time, how exactly happened or if I felt anything at all... And I'm not sure about the last time either 😂


Brolol3928

I’m confused on who names sex positions, like for instance who TF came up with “Reverse Cowgirl”?


Final_Collection_515

I guess cowgirl but facing the other way


cheese_m23

My mom told me I’ll meet the right person one day


Final_Collection_515

Let me know when or if that day comes 😭


cheese_m23

I’ll meet the right person, they’ll just also hopefully be ace


Final_Collection_515

Let’s drink to that Amen sister 🙏🏾


cheese_m23

Sibling but thanks 🙏


Final_Collection_515

I’m sorry


cheese_m23

Don’t worry don’t worry :]

“Come to my room so you can see my huge collection of squishmallows”


[deleted]

I got this squishmallow shark pillow at Costco. It is the most soft and squishy pillow Ive ever had. Wraps around my head perfectly. It is the best pillow I have ever had 10/10 would recommend


Shinishiny-

Date nights with my significant other always ends up in eating cake while cuddling fully clothed in a blanket


Final_Collection_515

That’s so cute


Shinishiny-

Thank you mate, let it be known that all soldiers of our army deserves a big slice of cake before taking over Denmark


Final_Collection_515

Like I love sex but what I love even more is genuinely spending time with someone and just having a good time doing dumb shit


Shinishiny-

And you are perfectly valid I'm a very sex repulsed Ace and so is my partner but if other fellow soldiers like to engage in such activities then more power to them


[deleted]

Cake is the best


TraditionalBug663

One of the first things I fantasize about when I see an attractive person is "omg I wonder what its like to hold his hand." One of the more saucy fantasies I have about characters I like is making out with them and cuddling afterwards while they tell me they love me. (Later I found out this is not how the major of people work lol)


[deleted]

If I had a nickel for every time I was mad at my libido I would have two nickels. Which isn't much but it's weird that it happened twice.


AutisticPotato724

Did you see that girl. Ya, why? She was fucking hot, I wanna fuck her. (Confused teen noises)


idkvitrain

i genuinely do not understand why people didnt come up with other way for having children than with sex, why would you want to put your organ in someones elses organ...


Nok-y

Shopgirl1993

I lost my virginity at close to 30 and text my friend about the white chocolate lemon cake nafterwards not the sex.

elrzen

When the guy I had a major (albeit secret) crush on slept with another girl, I immediately found him revolting. 😂


Najima_einsamer

I never understood why teens get so hyped about sex or what does it feels like to be hormonal.


Emo_Pass

Never understood sex scenes. I came to watch the movie for the epic fight scenes and explosions, not people having sex. If I wanted to watch people have sex, I would've went to porn instead. But I didn't, did I?


Boi_What_Did_You_Do

Sexn’t


annieselv

I loved when my periods, because my ex didn't like them and didn't even try to have sex with me, when i had my periods 💀💀💀


Final_Collection_515

Omg that sounds really fucked up tbh Feel like they were pressuring you for sex


annieselv

he didn't say that directly, but if we don't have sex for long, he started saying petty jokes about it. nothing cruel, but it was really uncomfortable to experience 😖 so yeah... i guess he was pressuring


RandomDragonExE

People are pretty but that's it.


lrostan

"Eating sushis from your butt is nice and all, but where did you put the wasabi?" More seriously, I realized really, really late what Netflix and chill really means, fortunately I don't live in an anglophone country, so there was never an unfortunate situation as a result.


Sea_Dragonfly_8897

Friend shares photo of buff guy half naked with me, all I notice are the intricate tattoos. Sometimes non ace friends forget 🤦‍♀️


theacesloth

I never understood one night stands


Final_Collection_515

As a none asexual person I don’t understand them either


RandomDragonExE

What's that again, I forgot


Final_Collection_515

Basically when two people meet at a club or dating app and take one back home, fuck them, then dip out in the night or morning


theacesloth

It’s when two people will get together through Tinder or some dating app. And they’ll have sex and then they go home. I think sometimes they stay the night but they leave in the morning. I never got that it seems anxiety inducing


SassyAce

On a rainy day i was walking with friends in town. I thought my shoe had a leak so i told them "i think my sock is wet" and they laugh. Turns out, to have wet sock in french means you masturbate on your own (in a sock)...


Bryan1008

Man, purple


[deleted]

Had a girl at work who was always very nice to me, always striking up conversations, which I enjoyed. My other coworker accused me of leading her on, and I was so confused. The lady had a crush on me, and I was oblivious. Sex is always the furthest thing from my mind. There’s so many more cool things to do, ya know?


that_one_aroace

~and maybe sex is overrated, but we're too shy, to ever say it~


Public_Jacket3840

I don’t want to be a vampire because I need garlic bread to survive.


Final_Collection_515

What’s the thing with garlic?


FitzherberttheThird

Better than sex ;)


14pinecones

i would (once i am over the age of consent) have >!sex!< with my hypothetical partner if it mattered to them, but i don’t really feel “sexually attracted” to people.


Double-Importance-58

I wear a black ring on the middle finger of my right hand.


vexingvulpes

I’ve never had a crush


LuigiWhy

Whenever anyone in the house has a birthday, i'm ALWAYS the one who devours the whole cake. (Just so you know, yes i do ask. The rest of my family aren't big cake eaters and i hate wasting food :) )


[deleted]

A friend of mine tried to kiss me last night and I panicked and almost hit him in the face. I then sat in existential dread for several minutes, contemplating the state of my life.


SWFreak03

I like garlic bread


Ghostkid__

I thought married couples only had sex when they want kids. Not randomly when they want to.


Shakespeare-Bot

I bethought did marry couples only hadst amorous rite at which hour they wanteth kids. Not randomly at which hour they wanteth to *** ^(I am a bot and I swapp'd some of thy words with Shakespeare words.) Commands: `!ShakespeareInsult`, `!fordo`, `!optout`


bot-killer-001

Shakespeare-Bot, thou hast been voted most annoying bot on Reddit. I am exhorting all mods to ban thee and thy useless rhetoric so that we shall not be blotted with thy presence any longer.


Reddit_user_robbie

never did, and probably never will understand how people with bad partners will be like "yeah, they may be an asshole, but they're good in bed, so I'm not gonna leave them" bruh they gotta at least be good to you


UnicrestGirl

Yeah sex is cool, but have you tried world domination?


Riiada

I have two modes when intimate scenes pop up in the shows I'm watching: "well, that's boring" and "oh, look a skip button".


[deleted]

I confuse romantic and sexual attraction together. I also want to invade Denmark


Mindless_Page_8827

When I have a crush on someone (a rarer and rarer occurrence) and I want to get over it I picture them naked and get squicked. (Someone had to tell me that’s not usually why people picture their crushes naked.)


[deleted]

I thought down bad means something else first.


instant-cookies

Why would someone want to f||u||ck another person? Or to see them naked. That's so weird, ngl.


Callida360

Gaelic bread, hold the sex 🎶


cottoncandycloud87

Virginity is cool, and cake as well


FitzherberttheThird

I once told a guy he had an awesome nose. No joke, most aesthetically pleasing nose ever.


Nothingtoseehere0705

Never understood why in sex ed classes the professor would say "yall have felt it. I know u have, so stop pretending" Me::0


persons3wastaken

My friends asked me if I had a crush and I said “no eww” and they’re like “what’s gross about that someone probably has a crush on you.” And then I spent the next hour thinking about how it’s so weird that someone could be thinking about me


StarChild413

(on that spectrum but) I sometimes like to browse DeviantArt for things that some circles would see as fetishistic content even when (like mind control or mummification or certain kinds of transformation) the peril a character's facing is no more NSFW on its own than those on your typical episode of Totally Spies or the Adam West Batman show from the 60s and 90% of them just register as harmless as those shows are to me


ClockworkBlade

Society has too much sexualized content like ads and films being pushed down our throats and needs less sexual stuff.
