    To answer the question in the brackets, it’s not about being attracted to sex itself or not, it’s about not being attracted to someone sexually (as in not finding a person sexually attractive). But sex can still be interesting and/or enjoyable to someone for various reasons besides being attracted to someone.



  • Asexuality is about not experiencing sexual attraction, not about being interested in sex or not.

    Some asexuals are also not interested in sex: Sex Repulsed

    Some don’t care: Sex indifferent

    Some want it: Sex favourable

    Of course, then there is the spectrum including Grey Aces: Sometimes feel sexual attraction under certain circumstances, and Demisexuals who are only sexually attracted when they have a strong emotional connection to someone.

    There are other labels under the asexual-spectrum but those are the most well known.






  • I can’t help but feel that part of this is because to make a movie there’s a higher barrier to entry and so a lot of studios and big budget production companies keep doing the ‘safe’ thing and regurgitating already existing properties or keeping their storylines ‘safe’.

    This happens in gaming too (especially with big budget franchises) but there are really great experiments and indies out there showing what can be done, which is less so in the movie and TV industry.

    People don’t always want the same thing over and over again and if executives could ever learn this it would be amazing how much creativity there would be, but they don’t.







  • Sure, I get your point and agree.

    I just think that third party middleman attacks should be mitigated wherever possible and so far, in looking at online therapy I’ve never seen one that can back up their claims of being private with data, just vague references to how secure it is.

    It’s a tricky situation, and I guess there’s no good solution because either we have to trust the third party or just the therapist and if neither can be trusted, well…

    it just speaks to a larger issue with society as a whole, how we treat mental health and especially that we need to pay in order to deal with our issues, and that it hasn’t been understood yet that it’s shameful and scary to come forward about problems because of certain laws, and the possibility of either the original scenario or the one you proposed.
