It's all about sport

Imagine a big sports event is coming up, everyone is talking about it, every where you look you see it, they use it heavily in advertisements to sell anything and everything, they...I could be talking about the Super Bowl actually o.o I live in the UK and even I can tell you the names of the teams....anyway yes imagine that almost everything around you is influenced by this sports event. Now what if you had absolutely no interest in this sport?
Well that's what it's like with Asexuals and sex.
"Asexual: A person who does not experience sexual attraction"....just so you know.
This concept can be completely alien for people who are sexual, some wont accept the idea at all.
I consider myself to be Asexual, when I was growing up my friends around me would be talking about guys they had been with and getting all excited about their first kiss and well other things, I would find myself feeling apart and far from understanding why everyone else had such a fascination with the subject of sex. In sex education classes when they were giving out condoms my friends would ask why I didn't get any, I got a lot of pressure on the fact and one day even snapped back 'I'm gay!', I'm not and my friends took it as a joke but still I couldn't understand why I wasn't the same as my friends. Sometimes I would wonder if there was something wrong with me, I eventually put it down to the fact that I was just taking my time and I was concentrating in school anyway.
It wasn't until later when I was online and was able to meet people who I could talk to about such things, one friend first used the term 'Asexual' to me and when I found out more about it I realised that this was me! You have no idea the sort of relief I found in the knowledge that I wasn't alone.
I get mixed reactions to people I tell, most say 'You'll feel different when you meet the right person' or 'Maybe you should get your hormones checked out' I hate the idea of people thinking I just need to have something 'fixed' about me to change, I don't want that, I'm really happy with who I am and don't feel the need to be fixed at all!
I am still able to form close relationships with friends, male and female, I do find I'm attracted to both but purely in an (for lack of a better word) intellectual way.
There's a great web site that needs to be promoted more for people like myself who felt very lost AVEN a big thanks to the admins and the members, they do great work.
