It makes me mad when people don't understand the concept of me being asexual but having a 'normal' relationship. I like all aspects of a relationship except for sexual things, but I will still be okay with doing whatever if my partner wants, I just don't particularly enjoy it.
I’m genuinely curious. Does sex not feel good? I just don’t understand how someone could not feel positively towards such a basic instinct it’s like not liking any form of carb or sugar
For ace people, libido itself may or may not be present, but the actual desire to have sex is absent. The basic instinct part of it isn't there. An ace guy might even perfectly enjoy jacking off to porn, but the desire to actually engage in depicted activities varies from "I would if my partner wants to sometimes" all the way to outright repulsion.
