Aegosexuality

What’s your favorite word?

I can’t remember if I’ve stated this explicitly on this blog before, but I’m Aegosexual. This is a subset of Asexuality.

A better definition of the term can be found here. But the way I understand the term personally is that as soon as I become part of the sexual situation I am no longer interested in it. The other way I describe this is a disconnect between myself and sex.

The reason this is my favourite word is because of what finding this term did to me personally. It made my sexuality make sense.

It’s confusing to know you have some interest in sex but don’t actually want that. In an allosexual world that views desire and action as interchangeable.

If you’d like me to write a little more on Asexuality and my experiences of it let me know.
