minus-squareRedFrank24@piefed.sociallinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up0·1 month agoI dunno… You can be straight and still consider someone of the same sex attractive, just not so attractive that you’d want to sleep with them. I’m ace and I find both Tom Ellis and Jenna Coleman attractive, but that doesn’t mean I want to sleep with them, or anyone really.
minus-squareFrostbeard@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up0·1 month agoWhat does “ace” mean in this context?
minus-squareTheImpressiveX@lemmy.todaylinkfedilinkarrow-up0·1 month agoAsexual, meaning they experience little to no sexual attraction.
minus-squareFenrirIII@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up0·1 month agoSo, if no one experiences sexual attraction to me, what does that make me? Anti-sexual? Axes, maybe?
minus-squareqarbone@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up0·1 month agoNo, FenrirIII, it just makes you ugly.
minus-squareHikingVet@lemmy.calinkfedilinkarrow-up0·1 month agoUnlucky. But the good news is that you can change your luck (to a certain extent).
minus-squaredandelion@lemmy.blahaj.zonelinkfedilinkarrow-up0·1 month agocreating a new sexual orientation based on whether people are attracted to you as an individual is like a whole new level of narcissism 😅 why no, I’m not a FenrirIII-sexual, but my friend is (she’s a slut)
minus-squareyou_are_dust@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up0·1 month agoAgree 100%. I think the guy in the comic got his award prematurely. The rest of the sentence after “but” matters.
minus-squareneidu3@sh.itjust.workslinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up0·1 month agoStupid question time: Does the fact that you’re ace omit the gay/straight spectrum entirely, or would you still place yourself on it somewhere?
minus-squareFoxyFerengi@startrek.websitelinkfedilinkarrow-up0·1 month agoNot having sexual attraction to any people doesn’t preclude romantic attraction. I’m ace and panromantic. What OP described is aesthetic attraction

minus-square🇰 🌀 🇱 🇦 🇳 🇦 🇰 🇮 @pawb.sociallinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up0·1 month agoAesthetic attraction vs Sexual attraction. You can find someone visually appealing without also finding them sexually appealing.
minus-squareSlotos@feddit.nllinkfedilinkarrow-up0·1 month agoThe two are not mutually exclusive. Sexual attractiveness also doesn’t mean sexual drive. One doesn’t need to be gay to understand that a man is sexually attractive in the way they find compelling. A desire to look good is all it takes.

Aesthetic attraction vs Sexual attraction.
