So why are you writing this?

I’m writing this because asexuality is pretty much unknown, and I think that’s a bad thing. I think humanity in general could benefit from realizing that not everyone is like them until we stop being shocked by this fact. I think visibility is the first step to increasing tolerance. Also, I think most people are a bit too focused on sex and maybe discussion of asexuality could bring up some interesting things about both romantic and platonic love.

So why are you writing this?

I’m writing this because writing helps me organize my thoughts, and I’ve been thinking about asexuality a lot lately. It’s kind of a big deal to me. It’s a whole part of me that I didn’t know I had, and it’s strange and confusing and amazing all at the same time, and if I keep trying to think about it I might go crazy. Not that anyone would be able to tell.

So why are you writing this?

Because I like talking about myself.

So why are you writing this?

Because most of the ace blogs I’ve seen are written by people who discovered their asexuality years ago and have pretty much come to terms with it and are maybe a little bitter about constantly being ignored and abused (which they have every right to be). But while that’s great, I’d like to see someone who doesn’t have everything figured out yet, who’s scared and confused like I am. So I want to be that person for someone else who’s just discovering their own asexuality.

So why are you writing this?

Because I think I need to. Does that answer your question?
