To asexuals, I have a question...

For many years I have identified as bisexual and felt for the most part quite comfortable doing so. Sure, I felt that there were periods when i was more into masculinity and then others when I was more into femininity, but that didn't make me doubt much my sexuality.

In the last couple of years though, I've felt like maybe I am not as interested in sex as I thought...it took me a while to come to this conclusion, because I am someone who reads a lot of smut fanfiction (a LOT), so I assumed that there was no way I could be an individual who isnt interested in sex...but the thing that I've come to realize is that, while I love to engage with sex in theory in quite a regular basis, I don't actually want to have sex myself. (I also have stopped having sex these last couple of years just because it's not something I miss or feel like doing.)

I love going on dates and get crushes on people quite often, but I ve noticed that I always dread the moment in dates when the conversation starts to slow and it's obvious that the next expected step is to engage with the person physically...I have no doubt in my mind that I want a romantic partner to cherish and love with all my heart (and also share physical affection like kisses, and holding hands, and hugging and cuddling), but when I imagine having sex with them I kinda feel uncomfortable, or at the very least it doesn't sound interesting to me.

Online, I've seen that the asexual community tends to share memes and posts that express a desire for a life without sex at all. I haven't seen many asexuals that seem to be like me - still have loads of interest in sex in theory but not want to actually engage with sex with a partner in real life. I really would love to know if to other asexuals my case sounds like asexuality afterall, of if it's something else...

I am in dire need of guidance and would appreciate your thoughts!

Thinking abt my identity and I think I’m aromantic in the sense that I don’t care for dating at all. Ew. Grody. BUT if you asked me out and we’re like friends and I’m chill with you then I’d go through with it.

Blog Idea

Would anyone be interested in a blog for those who are trying to find a specific queer label they identify with where you can send in an ask describing your identity and I offer some different labels?

Like a blog for those that specifically want to find a label that accurately describes them. I could find and suggest different, possibly lesser-known, identities. Kind of like a reverse dictionary of sorts?

Ok this is gonna be a long post

I genuinely think I might be a lesbian. I’ve always questioned it on and off occasionally but I never really thought about it because I was confident I was bisexual. For the past few days, I’ve seriously considered it. Idk why. It seems so sudden.

It scares me. And disappoints me. I had to defend my bisexuality for years and it feels like I’m “picking a side” and betraying everyone ):

But I’m also scared because what if I’m wrong and I’m actually bi and this whole thing was for nothing? What if I feel uncomfortable when guys like me back because they were older? What if I liked unavailable men because I have a shitty taste in men? What if I like a guy again in the future? What if the reason being married to a man sounds horrible is because of patriarchal expectations? What if this is just trauma?

But also, I relate to a lot of lesbians. I used to pick boys to like. For fuck sake I even did that freshman year of college (I’m 19). I don’t think I could ever be happy with a man. The idea of dating and having sex with a man disgusts me. Most of my “crushes” on men have been about wanting male validation and attention. I feel anxious flirting with men. Before I considered being a lesbian, I wished I was one. I resented liking men and I was miserable every time I had a “crush” on a man but I thought it was normal.

When I identified as bisexual, I always preferred women. I didn’t really like the idea of getting a boyfriend. I remember being asked constantly in middle school if I had a crush on a boy and I never liked any guy at my school. My friends were always shocked by this. My mom still asks if I want a boyfriend and I always say no.

But I like the idea of dating a woman and sleeping with a woman and getting married to a woman. I *want* to date women. If I was with a woman, I wouldn’t care about never being with a man. I mean I spent my whole life without a boyfriend, so it wouldn’t matter anyways. But if I was with a man? I would be disappointed. I would want to be with a woman. I never resented having crushes on women. I’m never uncomfortable with flirting with women. It feels more natural. I find women to be so much more attractive than men.

But what if I’m wrong and I do like men?

Sexuality/romantic orientation questioning culture is thinking you've finally got your identity worked out and then realising that actually people who are [gender you didn't think you were attracted to] are Actually Quite Cool and you would date them, and having no idea whether it's actually attraction or not.

I've come to the realization that trying out different labels is a lot like trying on different clothes.

It can be really hard to find something that fits. There's so many to try, it can be overwhelming, and then when you think you find something that you want to try but it turns out better suited for others, but not really for you, it can be disheartening as the search continues. Sometimes you know right away that what you've tried isn't a good fit, and other times you have to really try it out and get a feel for it to know if something that you want to stick with you. Other times you have to circle back around to that one specific thing, trying it on and off, over and over again, because maybe it fits, but maybe you just really like it so you want it to fit. Maybe it feels like nothing will fit at all, or too many things fit all at once and you feel pressured to decide.

I'm trying to be as patient with myself about finding a label that works for me as I with clothes shopping. Sometimes you find the perfect fit right away, and other times you have to search for it. Right now, I'm searching, looking around, trying things on, and reminding myself that I can love who I am without fully knowing myself yet. One day I'll find the perfect fit, even if it's simply "queer".

Do you ever feel like you aren’t actually your sexuality or gender orientation? Sometimes I feel like my mind is just telling me that I’m bisexual and gender apathetic because my friends are. I first started feeling like this when someone said “you’re just gay because it’s trending.” I tried not to think about it much but I guess it still sticks with me. Makes me think I’m not actually bisexual or gender apathetic.

i think the best way i can describe my sexuality now (after a lot of complex processing) is lesbian but also t4t. if cis, then woman, but if trans, then yes. being trans sort of transcends cisnormative labels because there’s a shared love in the trans experience that pulls me into a deeper personal connection than systems of gender can really explain. maybe part of it is the introspection a person has to do to really familiarize themselves with their own gender, or maybe there’s some work i need to process under the surface about how i view others in their gender identity. the processing doesn’t really stop, but this is where i find myself now. the lesbian i longed to be, but never granted myself the privilege to believe i could be.

Welcome!

The purpose of this blog is fairly simple: people who are looking for a label that describes them can come here, give a description of what they’re looking for, and receive a list of labels!

There is only one mod currently, and you can call me August or Crow! I mainly use he/him, but don’t mind the occasional neopronoun!

Rules:

Give a description of the identity you want labels for. This can be as brief or as in-depth as you want!

I’m also willing to make lists of name and/or pronouns that fit a certain theme, but I will likely not be as good at this

Be respectful, and understand that identity can be a very complicated and nuanced thing.

Please use tone tags/indicators when it is necessary or applicable!

I don’t really have a DNI; if someone makes me uncomfortable, I will block them. However, no NSFW/18+ only blogs!

Have fun! :D

Edit 26/12/23: Here is a post about and with a link to my queer dictionary carrd that is currently a work in progress!

Important disclaimers are under the cut! Please read before submitting a request!

Disclaimers:

Nobody can choose a label for you except for yourself; this is just meant to help show you some different options you may or may not have heard of before.

A label can mean different things to different people; I will try to list the most common definition(s) but it’s ultimately up to you to decide how you want to interpret it!

There is absolutely nothing wrong with going unlabeled or using an umbrella term! There is also nothing wrong with using a specific label, microlabels, or a million different labels!
