How Do You Know If You’re Asexual?

12 Signs You Might Be Asexual

 

  1. The number one tell-tale sign you might be asexual is, you never look at anyone and think, “I want sex with you!”

  2. When kissing you either don’t see much point other than a peck, or for you, the pleasure is in the kissing, rather than the sex itself.

  3. You might like foreplay, masturbation, in preference to sex, or you might like none of that and just like a good cuddle.

  4. When everyone started talking about boys, girls, sex and relationships at school, you never thought about having sex, and you might have never even thought about having a relationship with anyone.

  5. If you thought/think about having a relationship, intimacy was/is kissing, cuddling, and holding hands, not sex.

  6. While everyone is fascinated by the body and looking at it in a sexual way, you’re more fascinated with the person’s eyes, the way they smile, what jewellery they are wearing, and what clothes they have on.

  7. While everyone is talking about making out, you’re talking about putting the trash out, playing video games, watching movies and anime.

  8. When you invite someone over for Netflix and chill, you really do mean watch Netflix and chill, not let’s get together on the sofa/go to bed and have sex.

  9. To you, a bed is meant for sleep not for sex.

  10. When you say let’s have a cuddle, you really do mean a cuddle, not sex.

  11. You get fed up with all the sex on TV and in movies, and the overall sexualisation of things in society.

  12. Sex either does nothing for you if you do have it, and/or you never ‘need’ it.
