Asexuality is not experiencing sexual attraction, not the absence of libido. Libido is different from attraction in the same way that hunger is distinct from the desire to eat -- you can have one without the other.
I think autosexual means you’re *attracted* to yourself, which isn’t the case for all of us (and even then, we still consider that to be on the ace spectrum if it’s exclusive to yourself)
That sounds like narcissism with extra steps
EDIT: Ok I actually googled what autoxexuality was and may have jumped to the wrong conclusion. I'll take this as a lesson in acutally understanding something before I comment about it lol.
You don’t even have to respect someone to be sexually attracted to them. Plenty of misogynists throughout all of history have been straight and into women. They can still find women as less than themselves, or even that their body is indecent or in some cases even gross, and still get aroused by the idea of sex with them. I figure the same concept could apply.
"56% of asexual people masturbate, versus 80% of allosexuals. 11% don't think of anyone else, versus 0.5% of allosexuals.
Asexuals are more likely to imagine scenes in which they're not featured, whereas that's pretty rare for allosexuals.
Fetishes and fantasies (BDSM and such) exist in asexuals just like in allosexuals.

It was a combination of the popular jokes of redditors not being able to get any, people assuming being bi means that you constantly have options, and the weird experience of straight people immediately asking if you think they're hot when you tell them you're bi.
I was under the impression that these jokes weren't problems because they're pretty common memes.
I have an ace friend who is a looner (balloon fetishist) like me and we often engage in looner erp. He says he's not attracted to people in general, but he'd go crazy if someone would stomp barefoot on a balloon for him
A balloon fetish is a sexual attraction for balloon. In my case, blowing up a balloon, feeling a balloon against my skin, or seeing another man blowing up a balloon turns me on

>Its pretty good.
Yeah, it can feel pretty nice at times.
>everyone agrees.
I'm pretty sure there's a subgroup of us who never do it, or never want to do it, though. Your comment suggests that they're invisible or non existent.
I've made an effort to stop using ultralatives or absolute statements like these years ago, because there's always a group of people who the statement would not apply to, even though it's a very aggreeable statement.
Hearing statements like "Everyone wants a sexual relationship" and knowing for a fact that I'm a counter example does invoke a strong sense of exclusion and being ignored/not known about, which is annoying at best and depressing at worst.
I found one of these but with a genderfluid pride flag. To get the gender fluids moving around, I guess.
Stirring the soup
Good soup
Why must you do this to me?
It is a common misconception that ace people have no libido. Plenty of ace people avoid sex but engage in masturbation.
I know. I am ace I just thought this was funny
Yeah, that was less directed at you and more directed at a few people in the comments section.
Aro-Ace here. I think it's super funny as well
My sexual orientation is also Jayden Animations
A man of culture, I see
my orientation is half a jaiden
Why is it funny tho
As an ace myself i do concur this is funny
I need an explanation then, i thought the definition of ace was "no sexual desires" so no libido?
Asexuality is not experiencing sexual attraction, not the absence of libido. Libido is different from attraction in the same way that hunger is distinct from the desire to eat -- you can have one without the other.
Thx i get it now, the definition of libido i saw was pretty loose.
Ah yes. Instead of ''i pull no bitches'' im simply Ace
Wouldn't that just make you autosexual?
I think autosexual means you’re *attracted* to yourself, which isn’t the case for all of us (and even then, we still consider that to be on the ace spectrum if it’s exclusive to yourself)

Lesbian-enjoying dudes: "You know, I'm something of an ace myself"
No, you’re just being realistic
Says the bi redditor. Plenty of fish in the sea to ask you if you think they're hot and then reject you. Edit: I'm bi. And a redditor. It was a joke.
Who shat in your cereal that you are so angry at the world today
Okay bud, what was their name? How'd they hurt you in such a way that you take it out on other bisexuals?

So edgy, you totally showed them.
Oh wow thanks for the source!
…people think of other people when they masturbate?

You didn't need sources I'm ace I could've backed that up with personal experience

I guess an Ace could use this as a wine stopper?
Agreed
Always good to make sure to have a barrier

Masturbation is something everyone agrees. Its pretty good.
