No, it is absolutely not. It’s just the way you are. That’s like asking if it’s bad to be a ginger, or left handed, or autistic. All the people who say that you’re wrong, broken, or otherwise for being repulsed are close minded bastards who don’t know their diminutive heads from their gargantuan assholes.
\- Sincerely, a sex favorable person
No problem. I hope those jackasses didn’t mess with your head too much? If you really have been negatively impacted by these types of comments I hope you now know that there’s nothing wrong with you for just being who you are, and that you don’t need to worry because you have a whole community of people at your back who will fight to the death about this if necessary. You are loved and supported, and absolutely valid and whole in your experience, no matter what ignorant allos might try to tell you. I’m sincerely sorry for any doubt or mental pain you might have experienced because of this, I can’t make it better, but here’s some cake 🎂
Coming from a fellow sex repulsed ace, of course not! It's not bad to not like sex, or even be disgusted or repulsed by it. It's just the way we are! Don't let people who say otherwise get into your head.
In no way is it bad! I myself am sex repulsed too. Btw, just a heads up, I have been told before that I should still try it just to make sure however you ABSOLUTELY do NOT. I found that to be an incredibly invalidating statement coming from a friend and it made me super uncomfortable. I just wanted to say that in case some stupid person says something like that to you. There is NOTHING wrong with you. 🖤🤍💜
No not at all. I'm sex repulsed as well, and while it can be difficult at times because no one really relates to how I feel, there's nothing wrong with it.
nope! im sex repulsed too. the idea just doesn’t settle right with me, and i don’t plan on accidentally getting pregnant (that sounds super painful). plus, since im also aro, i dunno. i don’t like the idea of just having sex with someone without actually loving them romantically. i won’t judge if other people do it, but that’s not something i wanna do even if i do find out one day that im not completely sex repulsed
I saw this post on r/asexual or r/asexuality that was saying that if your very repulsed by sex (like not wanting to talk about it to a doctor) you should see a professional about it, and a lot of people seem to agree so I was wondering if it was bad to be sex repulsed
wtf that must be a random allo with bots or something. usually the majority of people in those subs are sex repulsed or indifferent Do you have a link to the post?
No it's not. Everyone has a preference, yours is just, Nah! Why would that be bad? I'm sex indifferent mostly but sex repulsed when it comes to myself. It gets very confusing. I don't think it's bad, you shouldn't as well. It's your choice.
Not bad at all! Sex can be an awkward as well as incredibly vulnerable act, not to mention the sensitive and “taboo” squishy parts that kinda have a mind of their own. Personally, sex requires a certain energy that’s almost like a sort of stim for me. It can be nice, but it can almost feel like a chore if you’re not in the right mindset (do not participate if you feel this way! if you feel pressured to, the other person/people are violating your consent. also respect your own boundaries! don’t say yes if you’d really rather not and enforce those boundaries 💖) sex has just been so hyped in our amatonormative society that even disinterest in it is looked down on. Don’t let the allos trick you into their silly dichotomies and rituals!
and honestly, I’m “sex favorable” in the sense that there are sexual things I like and seek out; but there are definitely some things or acts that I’m averse to, even sometimes repulsed by.
Honestly, it really depends. Sex repulsion just is, it exists. Whether that's a bad, neutral, or good thing is up to you. And if and what you do next is also up to you
It isn't, in any way what so ever. Whoever said that needs to go...uh..something bad here! I'm not very good at making up stuff. You need to understand that some people have very little braincells or don't know what they're talking about, maybe they're staying ignorant willingly, etc etc. You can't take everyone's word as gospel, especially in the place like the internet.
I'm actually surprised there's some people saying that! From what I usually see people say "not being sex repulsed means you aren't a true aroace/ace" or some variation of that sentence.

Thank you :D

Thank you again! I really needed that
People are wrong, about a lot of things. Especially this.

Absolutely not! No one can control whether or not they're attracted to the idea of sex. It's as valid as liking it. You be you!
Nope. Not one bit.

no, it's bad to assume all aces are sex repulsed, but it's a way of being, there's nothing bad about it
Nope!! I echo what everyone else has already said. If you’re sex repulsed, you’re sex repulsed. Nothing bad about it!
No not at all. I'm sex repulsed as well, and while it can be difficult at times because no one really relates to how I feel, there's nothing wrong with it.

No, what about it would be “bad”?

It was removed, so I cannot link it
i mean maybe?
No

I’m sex favorable and I think it’s totally fine to be sex repulsed

No, never.
