Eyy!! I actually find it to be an extremely interesting intersection of masculinity to hear from, and would love to hear it way more, especially in general discussions on masculinity. It appears that a lot of cis men centre their identity around sexuality, and the absence of your experience is noticeable in the discussions about men's wellbeing, so much advice for guys is still centred around essentially "how to win the amatonormative game." Keep thriving my guy 💜

The signs are typically there in the mid teens but lots of people aren't able to come to that conclusion so soon. It took me well into my 20s to come to terms with being aro. It's especially hard when you have no one in your life to which you're comfortable asking those type of questions.

this. I once got asked "so you were r_ped?" when I was talking about being asexual. there is such a term as caedosexual, which falls under the ace umbrella, but it's also such a wild question. like, none of your damn business? and the obvious - being asexual ≠ having sexual trauma. but two things can be true at once and everyone's experience is different.

Thank you for this video. As a Cis Ace guy it can feel super isolating sometimes even around my friends that I know support me. You are correct about that “not enough” mindset being very prevalent. Like when my friends see a guy/girl they’re sexually attracted to it just tugs on my mind like “am I missing something?”. It’s super hard getting out of that mindset but I’m trying and I hope one day it’ll be less intrusive.

It's really weird in general with society. I am turning 43 this year and I literally never had the desire for the "deed", even after a few relationships and intimacy, sex was never part of it. I actually didn't know what asexuality was until like 2015/16. Even nowadays I meet people and when you end up at that topic, people tend to stare in disbelief, when you tell them, you never did it. It usually gets replies like "Why not go to a hooker, i am sure you like it." or "You should see a therapist, because that is not healthy." I tend to say, "Have you tried to hug a cactus?" and they usually reply, "No, that probably would hurt." and I am usally replying "You don't know that yet, you haven't even tried it. I am sure you will like it." It is so annoying and even in the LGBTQIA+ community, I meet people once in a while, which are like, "Why are you here? You are not marginalized or critisized for your orientation." In the end it is usually very lonely, because even ace people long for companionship and a loving embrace. Also, the older you get, the harder it becomes to date....

I am so glad I am not the only one to find out about Asexuality as a younger teen. I found out I am asexual this year, one thing I always think about this “I am only 15 maybe I am just too young”. I am so glad you found out at a younger age, it makes me feel more validated. It is really scary navigating this world where sex is so important, with my peers having relationships and sometimes even sex (I still think it’s weird to do at 15😬). Thank you for this video, I know this video is about ace men but I just want you to know how much that one sentence meant to me.

Your story reminds me of a soapbox of mine. I think young people should try on labels they think will fit, just to see. I identified as agender for about 6 months before I realized that the label that works for me is "nonbinary woman" instead. People should be allowed to say "I'm asexual" without worrying that they are faking it if that changes later. Also, I say young people because that's when people are usually exploring this stuff, and that's okay, but anyone can try out labels just to see what fits.

There's also so much toxicity within some online ace communities.I started looking into the ace community in my early 30s, but got annoyed because I kept getting the response of "well, maybe you're just repressed" and "I don't think you're asexual". There was this weird thing that if I wasn't completely repulsed by sexuality, then I couldn't be asexual.

I get that so much. I'm aro-ace with a high libido/sex drive and thus I'm not repulsed by sex at all. Just the same I experience aesthetic attraction, but it's not gender based. It's really cruel when people disregard different ace experiences and shoehorn asexuality as a complete repulsion of sex, make it into a 100% absence of attraction.

My guess is that men who know they're Ace don't want to deal with all the extra bullsh*t surrounding masculinity, so they keep it to themselves.

I’m demi-panromantic, and though genderfluid I tend to identify as a guy more often or not, and dress masculinely. I’ve only been with one person, and I kinda wound up a bit hurt thinking I can’t provide for them what they might want. Though a topic I didn’t think about the topic came up once, with them talking about how doing “it” scared them. I admitted it scared me as well. They kinda got annoyed, mainly because they well, I can’t figure a friendlier way to put it but have kids. Now I wasn’t the most well versed in sexuality, so I had no idea of asexuality, along with many other things, so when they asked me what made me afraid I couldn’t really formulate a answer. I wound up feeling really bad, like it was my fault. For the record they aren’t a bad person, honestly a lot of they’re anger more or less came for other reasons, they were already going through a lot (plus this was during the pandemic) and a family member of their’s was let’s just say badly injured and hospitalized. We’re no longer together but he’s still, and always will be my best friend. Thinking back honestly things probably wouldn’t have worked out, however now I have more confidence and know it wasn’t for the reasons I was afraid of. Simply we weren’t the right people for each other. I’m lucky I’ve had such great friends, they’ve taught me a lot, and I’m much more comfortable with the ways I feel and understand myself better. For anyone who managed to read this far thank you for reading. I think one thing everyone must learn is that it’s not bad to feel a certain way. I don’t want to say it’s always okay to embrace it, sometimes some feelings can lead to some very dark places, but especially if it doesn’t hurt other people, and is what makes you feel happy, embrace it and don’t let other people mock you for it. At the very least you know You’re happy with who you are. As long as your friends are there to support you, and you are happy with the person you are then there’s no reason to be ashamed. Especially if the person mocking you is just another hateful person who’s for some reason invested in your sexuality, or your gender, or whatever thing it is they’ve chosen to use as a vendetta against you.

I'm a female ace, who's only new to being ace. As someone who's grown up in the cishet allo dating world, men are being rejected so frequently for sex, that some are pretending to be ace or at least sex repulsed in order to get us to feel comfortable with them, and then they come out with the truth once we are sucked in. I'm not saying it's "right" for women to disbelieve ace men genuinely exist, because obviously they do. But it's a trauma response from real world experience of men lying to us very regularly about their intentions.

So I’m not aroace, I’m bisexual but I get it, you don’t feel sexual atraccion or romantic atraccion, and that’s fine, what I don’t get is the rest of the people don’t understanding the concept, is like the most easy to understand, what is your sexual preference?, none and that’s it, you don’t have to explain why you like one thing or another, and yet you have to explain why you don’t have that atraccion, way is people confuse about you guys?, you’re just chilling and then the rest of the people be like: why you don’t like sex? Not my cup of tea thanks yeah but why? It must feel really bad of years of feeling not understood Anyway, full support, keep going, you guys are beautiful and validated ❤️

This is interesting because I will personally say I am on the ace spectrum myself as a demisexual guy, and my journey was through asexuality because I always somewhat suspected that I was comfortable with just my interests and hobbies and sex wasn't a big part of what I want. The reason I call myself a Demisexual gay guy is I am not aromantic, I desire a romantic relationship with other men 100%. It's sex that isn't a big part of why I would date a guy. But to see that asexual people deal with that dumb question of "You don't look "insert any sexuality apart from straight" is kinda stupid because what does a sexuality look like. The assumption that all gay guys are fem is a dumb stereotype that doesn't really have much truth and only applies because entertainment and media basically makes every gay guy fem. Every single gay character in a mainstream film is fem, none of them are just regular old masculine guys who just happen to like guys. Also I personally did not know that non binary and cis women and trans people were stereotyped as being more likely to be asexual because I was basically the only ace person in my community and I am male, but I guess my thing is also because I'm disabled I went through the loneliness and isolation but not through the lens of sexuality but rather disability so I was used to being the only "identity" in the community, and let's just say being an introvert has it's positives in helping with that kind of stuff. I also was exploring my identity when asexuality wasn't even considered a sexuality really in like the 2010's so I had to navigate without too much social media and internet. And It was when I got more access that I started to really explore my identity and I came to realize that despite identifying as mostly gay through my 20's, I have started to really think about my relationship with sex and sexual attraction in my later 20's and I kinda have come to the point through exploration that my young self was partly correct in his identity in that sex to me is more like "a nice bit of art." I can admire human bodies and I can like certain aesthetics but at the end of the day what does sex do to me, nothing. The sex positive part of me is the one that views sex as an artistic thing as I do like the general aesthetic of men in terms of looking at it with that perspective.

Asexual men exist deal with it! I love the title. I'm a man turning 30 next month so I'm old enough to know by now that I'm aroace. Yes! very relatabe. Feeling broken because of asexuality and aromanticism is what I have felt a lot in my life. I tried really, really hard to love girls in my school but none of them were that "special" one you were supposed to find and that would "feel right" as everyone was talking about. I have had my incidents with relatives trying to push me into going on blind dates and stuff. But they have luckily started to realize that I just don't want to date and instead started saying things like. No pressure! You have lots of time left. One day the right one will come.

Sometimes I wonder if I’m technically ace. I do desire intimacy, but it is extremely infrequent and sometimes I just don’t enjoy. I also don’t understand why hyper-sexual is becoming a very normalized concept, it’s just strange to me especially knowing it’s a side effect of…..child abuse.

Lynn`s just making stuff up for clicks and views. I`ve seen filmed interviews long before this `gender ideology` where a man said he wasn`t interested in sex and nobody said anything. Men living on remote farms are probably seen as better off without women (or men). But somehow the female Lynn Saga knows everything there is to know about something the West has just invented in order to recruit straight people into queer spaces.

will never forget the girl that told me that I didn't "look asexual" because I wasn't "ugly". like thanks...I guess...but sexuality has zero to do with aesthetics. if I was less "conventionally appealing" I'd still be asexual.

I don't get the premiss that someone looks .... insert noun. I look like me, why do I look like me, because I'm me. What am I supposed to look like I'm a straight white male, a commonplace character, so how should I look? I don't understand those questions either. I look however I feel like looking, which is usually what I feel is comfortable for me which has very little to do with my inner self and my struggles in life. Basically, it boils down to you decide what you look like not your gender, sexual orientation, community, or anything else, because we are all individuals.
