In Angela Chen’s Ace: What Asexuality Reveals About Desire, Society, and the Meaning of Sex, she discusses her own experience coming to terms with her asexuality while highlighting the responses she received from other aces she interviewed.
In the last few years-thanks to Twitter-I stumbled upon the words bi/panromantic and demi/greysexual and finally felt something unlock. It wasn’t until years later that I realized I didn’t feel anything sexual when I looked at any gender’s body and spent years wondering if I was truly broken. After talking to a bisexual friend in my early twenties, she showed me a picture of a very beautiful woman in an evocative pose and asked if I felt anything when I looked at it. Content warning: discussions about trauma, rape, and abuseĮven though I primarily dated men as a teenager, I’d had sexual and romantic experiences with women.
