    Imagine my surprise when I realized “people actually enjoy this? They’re not all just over-exaggerating about it?? They purposefully seek it out???”

      My demi experience: yeah sure I enjoy that. I enjoy gaming too. Either is nice to have, but if I can’t do it for a year, I won’t be thinking about it that much, ya know? I was shocked to find out how much people think about sex, and particularly shocked that they’ll see a stranger, acquaintance or friend and literally feel a desire to have sex with them? Like, how many people have imagined they’re having sex with me? Ew. Don’t do that to me.

      I was 39 years old when I learned that no I’m not broken, I’m just asexual (I had never heard of the term before that). That was a good day.
