Common Stereotypes
I'm making a video for school about addressing stereotypes about asexual people so I'd like to know from you fellow aces, what has been a stereotype, myth, or assumption someone has said about you and your ace identity?

Question
Let my just preface that I don't really identify by labels but I also like to know what said thing is if that makes sense
But my question is it still asexual if I would participate for my (future lmao i'm only 19) partner sake to make them happy because I see no point in sexual activities even if they are pleasurable it's just not my thing
Also I am sending this before I sleep so I'll respond to any direct questions when I wake up

do you guys masturbate?
i heard that it’s normal to imagine yourself in ‘situations’ or imagine other people you know irl but for some reason i feel REALLY BAD and uncomfortable with imagining other people.

how do y'all feel about the 4B and 6B4T movements?
a lot of women are going on a strike against things like sex, dating, marriage, having children, consuming sexist products, conforming to strict beauty standards, etc.. i'm happy to see a sex-free lifestyle being normalized (albeit politicized), even though it will probably lead to me being asked if i'm just on a strike when i mention being ace on dating apps and irl. any thoughts?

Yes, you can be asexual and still be a follower of Slaanesh

What is your luck with therapists?
I just moved to San Antonio and had my first therapist appointment. I chose the therapist after her bio mentioned work with LGBTQIA+ communities. When I mentioned being sex-aversed, she pushed back on that a bit. Not too bad, but enough to make me a little uncomfortable. She even used the term, "most asexuals don't..." or something like that to say that sex-averse or sex-repulsed was not part of the identity.
Should I find a new therapist? Should I stick it out beyond this one first appointment? I'm torn.

how do i respond to my boyfriend saying he has needs too?
me and my bf have been together for 3 years. he's been fully aware of me being ace before we even started dating, and was constantly reassuring me that it doesn't matter to him. but lately me being asexual is not as easy for him as it was in the beginning. we tend to argue the last 6 months because he's making me feel guilty, and he's feeling neglected. sex didn't matter to him early on, but lately it seems his mind has changed? every time i try to be open and explain my needs as an asexual person, he always gets me with "well what about my needs? why am i the one who has to suffer in this? can't we compromise somehow?"... compromise meaning can i just have sex with him every now and then to keep him happy. i never know how to respond to that question. obviously i want him to feel loved and wanted. he's amazing in every other aspect of my life. but if i start having sex with him when i don't want to, i'm worried i'm going to start to resent him myself.
what are some good responses to his question that could help further our conversation and provide more understanding?

What do we know about Project 2025?
I know it's a wish list sort of thing and Trump said he knows nothing about it but we also know many of his closest policy advisers are heavily involved in the project. Do you all think he'll enact the project? I'm not even American but I'm worried about my friends there, some of them are queer and some are Muslim.

American asexuals only in the US, how do u feel after the election?
This is a bit more political hopefully I used this flair correctly? Let me know if I’m wrong
just wanted to say Iam deeply sorry abt the loss in America..now I’m thinking abt how many of u guys r gonna cope abt the situation
Despite losing the rights from ur own body.,and we as asexual we have no little to sexual attraction this is making me concerned bc I’m just wondering what if they force it upon you? And ur sexual orientation?
Even if ur deeply uncomfortable abt sex how are u guys going to fight this back? ( I know not all of u are but Ik some of u do too)
I’m pointing this out bc I’m scared that it might affect the whole world..and America has a huge influence to it. I’m not even American nor I do live in the US..im praying for all ur safety
as someone who is asexual too now I wonder what’s going to happen in the next four years losing our rights..and for everyone else’s too
feel free to answer if u like to, this is a safe place for u to rant it out if you’d like and please don’t fight under the comments I want everyone to be civil and respectful
It’s okay to feel sad and disappointed bc Iam as upset as all of u are

Confused about my sexuality
Currently, in a heterosexual relationship. I have had sex in the past with different men. And only enjoyed it when I was drunk. I never really enjoyed kissing a man. The one and only time I kissed a girl I liked it a lot more than kissing a guy.
Trying to figure out if I am a lesbian or asexual. What has your experience being asexual like? What helped you realize you were asexual?
