Quick and Easy Guide to Asexuality

[3.5] Full disclosure: I'm someone who flirts with the demisexual label, and I say flirts because I've never found labels necessary for me personally—I just feel what I feel, and if others can't understand, that's on them—but I recognize their purpose for others who choose to identity themselves that way.

What I really liked about this brief introduction to asexuality is that it's educational but never clinical. The mix of explanations with personal anecdotes is very well done (such as the feeling of having to justify yourself at doctor's appointments in response to certain questions), and topped with the fun comic style, the content proved to be far more digestible than your standard Wikipedia wall of text. They also took the time to address some common misconceptions and stereotypes floating around in the media/general public, like “you're just choosing not to have sex” or that all asexuals don't have sex. This is where my absolute favorite metaphor comes in: “If you can eat when you're not hungry, then you can have sex without being sexually attracted to someone.”

A bit of a lightbulb moment for me. Don't mind me using this easy as cake explanation irl
