So I was just informed that being aegosexual is a thing….I finally found a term that explains me after literal years of searching wtf. Different types of asexuality need to be discussed more.

Honestly, valid. The idea of sex is always better than the actual act for me. 😂

Could you elaborate on it? I have never heard of it! I’m Demisexual so I know some but not all of the Ace spectrum!

Stole this definition from somebody because I suck at explaining: Aegosexual is an identity within the asexual umbrella that describes someone who feels aroused by sexual content (such as porn), but who doesn't typically want to engage in sexual activity. Some aegosexual people describe this experience as feeling a disconnect between themselves and the sexual elements that are arousing them.

Ofc! Demi fits me because I have to truly know a person before anything. Like the idea of hookups makes me so sick tbh but after knowing someone a while I’m okay with the idea. I’m also Bi so it’s an odd way of feeling but it’s how I feel lol

No i totally get you that was my way of thinking but i realized that i actually just struggle to feel anything at all for people irl. Based on a combination of things that I’ve experienced and or lack there of.

I hear this actually. As a trans woman, I often find myself uncomfortable with sex as an action, but that really comes from feeling like my body doesn’t belong to me. I do write and read smut, and enjoy it, and am a bit of a domme on here, but it’s really for me about giving, not reviving, so idk. Maybe it’s just a trans thing, and not a sexuality thing. But I hear you with that. We need to talk more about the community, and its spectrums.

Honestly that might be it for me to considering I’m trans masc I think there’s a certain dysmorphia that I can’t quite get ride of that also affects my sexuality partially.
