Need Advice Can a 13yr be Asexual??

60 Upvotes

My friend was talking about her sexual attraction to her boyfriend and I have never felt such attraction to anyone. Obviously I love people romantically and platonicly but I've never felt like, "yup I wanna fuck them". I have a girlfriend and I love her but I could never love her sexually. I see nude bodies more artistic then sexual and don't get aroused from seeing them. I understand I could be young but it's been hitting me recently when I heard kids in my class talking about sex they've been having (which I think is way too young). I'm almost in high school and I'm aware sexual feelings can develop around middle school but I haven't been able to feel anything towards people in that manner. Is it possible I'm asexual or maybe just not fully developed??

Need Advice Mother bought and ripped up a children’s book with queer parents

34 Upvotes

My mom bought this children’s book where many different types of parents were portrayed. It talked about how some kids have one parent and some kids have gay parents. But also it never explicitly said these things. I didn’t get a good chance to read it, she let me look at it shortly. But it was like just the kids saying things they like to do with their parents like playing baseball and it would say, I like playing baseball with my dads. At first when I asked my mom why she bought it she said the illustrations were cute. The next day she said the book was evil and went against the Bible. About a week after this I find the pages ripped out from the book and set in a stack on the table. My mom claimed that the book had gotten wet and the pages ‘fell apart’. Yeah sure they fell apart in perfect pages torn from the book. So now she has the pages stacked and she took them and put them somewhere but did not throw them away. It’s super weird. I’m wondering if maybe she’s going to burn them? I love my mom and I knew she was homophobic but this is strange even for her. Sometimes she has these weird weeks once every couple of months where god “tells her” to do things. I’m wondering if this is one of those times. One time I got a comic book that featured a sapphic couple and she found it and read it and said god “told her” to get rid of it as it was very evil. And this was maybe two years ago. But she’s back at it again. Then she had the audacity to ask me why I was acting weird but I felt super awkward and upset. Sometimes I forget the fact that if they really knew me they would hate me. I just need to vent so I’m not really sure what I’m expecting here but I’m just so frustrated and unable to move out at the moment.

me and my friend disagree on transgender people?

32 Upvotes

me and this new friend(?) of mine recently got into a debate of transgender people and the meaning of gender.

he said that he thinks transitioning “has its cons” but he is friends with trans people and respects them. he also views gender as very black and white. i personally, think the opposite. gender affirming care is life saving and gender is a social construct that fits everyone differently.

we decided to agree to disagree, but i still feel weird about it. i don’t want to be friends or ass with someone who is iffy on the rights of trans people.

should i stop talking to him? or do i agree to disagree?

Need Advice Possible Transphobic Professor?

15 Upvotes

EDIT: Not possibly, definite. I have a habit of downplaying things to lessen the impact.

I'm in a new grad program heavily based in sociology. While discussing gender, the teacher played devil's advocate and "jokingly" said lots of backhanded things. (i.e. Saying that Freud was right about Penis Envy, and trans men just want some male privilege).

He brought up the drastic rise in cases of gender dysphoria and transition among transmasc/men, NB, etc. posing the question, "What's happening to our adolescent girls?"

Some of my classmates, likely ignorant to trans issues albeit, said that most trans men chose to transition, because they weren't allowed to live as lesbians, or have a difference in gender expression.

A few suggested that since the changing of GD in the DSM, and access to more affirming service providers have accounted for the change.

As a stealth trans man, (and one who was NEVER a lesbian) I was really mortified. I want to drop from the program, because I feel like it won't be safe to be myself or I'll be outed with no protections. (+ Yes, it's in a red state.)

Any advice or insight on how to handle the situation moving forward would help.

I have not reached out the professor, because I don't want to out myself.

Need Advice Can’t figure out if I’m gay or bi

14 Upvotes

I’m a 17M and In the past year I’ve realized that I find men attractive. I’ve never been that into girls my whole life, I can definitely recognize that some are really good looking but they just don’t make me feel how others I’ve talked to describe it. I’ve tried talking to girls in the past and could never get into it that much, I just felt like something was missing. While with men on the other hand it feels different, like it’s something I actually want instead of what is “normal”. I force myself sometimes to watch straight porn to try and see if I enjoy it, and the whole time I feel miserable and stressed out. The whole time I can only think about how I don’t want to watch it, and guys I think look attractive. The thought of being with women in general kinda stresses me out while with men it’s the opposite. I try to fantasize about women but I genuinely just feel kinda uncomfortable the entire time. I feel like part of me must like women tho since I keep watching straight porn to see if I’m attracted to the women in it, even though it makes me feel really bad. Is there any questions I can sit down and ask myself to figure this out?

I don’t know what to do anymore. It’s painful not knowing what the right thing to do is.

I’ve come across people who claim that transgender people who haven’t undergone gender-affirming surgery are “fake,” or that they have “internalized transphobia.”
And it’s not just one or two people—quite a few people seem to believe things like this…
That’s not true, is it? It’s perfectly okay to be transgender without undergoing gender-affirming surgery, right?
There’s so much criticism that I’m feeling completely overwhelmed and distressed…
Personally, I believe that if someone identifies as transgender, then they are transgender, regardless of their body, appearance, or whether they’ve had surgery. I also believe that gender-affirming surgery should not be a requirement for someone to be recognized as transgender.
But there are so many people criticizing others for this (or maybe they’re just the loudest voices?) that I’ve reached a point where I don’t know what to believe anymore.
Please, help me…

I dont wanna look like a man when im older

6 Upvotes

I am an 18 year old bisexual guy, i like being a man, i look quite feminine in my face and im happy about that, I hate stereotypical masculinity and I would never like to be me the "man" in a relationship ( im in a relationship with a trans boyfriend so there is no gender roles)

Overall, I like my looks, and my life, i dress like a normal guy, i wouldnt say im a femboy or anything, i am a feminine guy, I dont feel a lot of gender dysphoria ( only some sometimes), my idols are pepole like david bowie or will toledo or robert smtih

But the vision of me being a 40year old guy with a beer belly or just having facial hair everywhere, or my face slowly looking more masculine makes me want to tear my skin off

I know I cant do anything about it, but I dont wanna look like a man in the future, like I dont wanna be a woman but I just hate the vision of me growing old as a ugly guy, all this started after I saw a tik tok of " femboys when they grow up" and it was a greasy ugly guy

Like this is my worst nightmare right now, I cant cope with aging and having a beard or hair everywhere or just overall, I hate body hair and stuff even though I like myself

I dont know what this means or what im gonna do with any of this , i just wanna vent man

And please no hate, I tried posting this on another sub but everyone just lashed out on me, i just wanna hear someone who had a similar expirience or just any advice at all
