    Fine. I fucked up and married an asexual woman because she was the first person to ever show me genuine affection and I royally fucked up.

    Sucks to be me! No kids, at least.

      I’m asexual and I deserve love too! I married another asexual lady and it’s great. Neither of us have to do things we don’t want to.

      If it helps I didn’t marry an asexual woman and I still get none.

      Sucks to be me, plus a kid!

      What is wrong with genuine affection? The least of us are that lucky. Sex you can have with everyone and get it everywhere. You can even buy it, if you want. But love and affection is a rare commodity you can’t enforce or buy or…

        It depends on the person. Some asexual people can be quite sexually active because they don’t mind or enjoy helping with their partner’s sexual needs even though they’re not directly interested.

        I don’t want to try it. Don’t even want to hear about it. Don’t even have functioning genitals on account of being intersex. I thought I was horny once, but that was just when Rush Limbaugh died.

        Some people tell me, “well, you haven’t had the right dick or pussy yet!” And I always reply, “and you haven’t had the right arsenic yet, keep trying different kinds.”

        Turns out that the wizard powers for being a forty year old virgin only apply if one ever had the option or desire to lose the virginity in the first place.

          Immortal words, my friend. I commend their beauty.

        ooh, ooh! Ace here. I went through a period where sex was my special interest. I went deep down the research rabbit hole, learned all about sex toys and methods and safer sex techniques. Had willing partners.

        At the end of the day, sex is boring and no one is hot/of an attracting gender. I guess it’s like if you were a super straight man and everyone else was men? I don’t know.

        Now I’m into knitting and kumihimo.

        How many times can you do that?

        Yeah sure, few times to find out what the fuzz is about and then move on. Do you have any idea how many times people have sex in a relationship, a lot more than just a few times.

        Just for clarification, I’m not ace or at least haven’t accepted it and just have difficulties with libido and remembering that I’m supposed to have sex.

          Ace people can actually still have a strong libido! It’s more about sexual attraction.

          Of course, others are straight up repulsed by even the thought of sex. It’s a wide spectrum.

            Yeah, they’re the lucky ones of the cursed spectrum. At least that can be taken advantage of even if there’s no direct target for it.

      Dont worry, as parents you wouldn’t (want) to see action either. You get up, handle your offspring, go to work, gethome to just handle the offspring again. Depending if they had mid-day sleep you may be allowed to do chores starting 19-23pm. Actually working is more relaxing than being 100% of the time on adrenaline because your toddler tries to hurt themselves all the time. You just lack energy for romance. Trying for a second is a chore.

      Dude, you’re supposed to hate yourself, you’re the same gender as yourself, so loving that person is gay!

      I used to work for a very shitty hotel. Like, heroin and hookers kind of hotel.

      One summer we somehow became the official hotel of something called CLAW. I have no idea what it stands for, but the basic idea is that it’s a gay guys in leather convention.

      Anyways, I’m a straight male. I have no issues with these guys, but I wouldn’t join in. As I’m working the front counter, this guy comes up and tries to flirt with me. I politely decline. Then he goes off to our dining room area.

      Another guy walks up to check in. As I’m doing my job, the first guy comes back, walks up to the guy checking in, and says “Heeeey, I’m Tom. Are you single?” to which the second guy says “No, but I’m free to play”. Tom then gives him a room key, and says “Well I’m room 329. Feel free to bring as many as your friends as you like”.

      To this day I am dumbfounded by that interaction. To any gay dudes reading this, I want you to know flirting with women and sealing the deal is NOWHERE NEAR that easy! I was impressed, and a bit jealous.

      Tom walked up to this guy, and with 1 sentence and 1 question organized an orgy in which he was not at all responsible for setting up. He’s just offering a room. You bring the dudes.

      This means Tom doesn’t have to vet people. He doesn’t need to make sure everyone is comfortable with each other. He just told the second guy to bring all his friends, and he reaps all the rewards of orgy host!

      To put that in perspective, I’m 42, and never even had a threesome with 2 women. Because its such a hassle getting all the details just right. Meanwhile Tom’s over here like “ALL of your friends please!”

      He went from “Hi my name is Tom” to “Lets pack my room with dudes” with only one sentence, and one question. Even the Germans aren’t THAT efficient!

      So for you to say that you can’t get any other guys to give you a handjob…brother, you’re just not trying! Have you tried opening with “Hello”? Apperently that leads to orgies.

        It’s because you can basically murder and eat more-less any woman, and she can’t do anything about it, so she is rolling the dice.

        Men meanwhile, a lot harder.

        Also, less fucks given about it.

          Ladies, I promise I’m not trying to eat you.

          …wait. No, I mean, I’ll go down on you, sure. But I will not consume your flesh.

          Also, I’d like to handcuff your ankles and wrists onto a steel frame, in a vulnerable position. Then tickle the crap out of you for hours!

          Hey! Where ya going, ladies? Come back!

          See? So hard to talk to women!
