If we consider sex as a noun then it means people without any genitals or reproductive organs at all. If we consider sex as a verb then it means people who are attracted to no one and do not have sex with others at all. This latter meaning is how my mother describes herself and she would have been very happy to find other's like herself when she was younger. She was an advocate of masterbation as the only desirable form of sexual gratification and aknowledged not even including other people in her sexual fantasies. On second thought she could have started an asexual movement. She had a hard time enduring the sex drive, love/intimacy of all the people around her including us - her sons which she found repulsive. She wished for a place she could go where people like her could escape from all of us.Jim Costichhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08791917017485731005noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3451574857665049482.post-39640499015833606512010-07-19T23:32:11.090-04:002010-07-19T23:32:11.090-04:00A plain grey rectangular flag.A plain grey rectangular flag.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3451574857665049482.post-2573990273486227552010-07-18T14:00:56.620-04:002010-07-18T14:00:56.620-04:00To the first Anonymous-- you don't know what a...To the first Anonymous-- you don't know what an asexual is.goethechosemercyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14381735500651619125noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3451574857665049482.post-69899764366466961762010-07-18T12:58:37.459-04:002010-07-18T12:58:37.459-04:00Just a plain, white flag for purity and surrender....Just a plain, white flag for purity and surrender.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3451574857665049482.post-7600775975751533272010-07-18T12:07:17.842-04:002010-07-18T12:07:17.842-04:00Hmmmm.

It's an orientation like any other.<br /><br />As for the strike through... I've no idea how that would work a flag, do you mean as an adaption of the gender symbols? I think most people if stuck to it just do a plain circle, a ring both because of the ace ring thing but also because it doesn't denote attraction to any gender. Though those who don't self-identify as having any gender use it more I think, in the gender symbol sense. <br /><br />In any case, I have no idea what you mean in regards to the flag thing as above doesn't make any sense in flag terms any more than having the gender symbols in various arrangements would work instead of the rainbow flag.<br /><br /><br />The plain beige with two circles.... well as the thread linked to explains we're going with black (asexuals), grey (demisexuals and grey-aces), white (sexuals) and purple (community) as the colours. But I'm curious about your idea and what it represents.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3451574857665049482.post-1063492033864149582010-07-18T00:09:37.893-04:002010-07-18T00:09:37.893-04:00dpking check out http://queersunited.blogspot.com/...dpking check out <a href="http://queersunited.blogspot.com/2008/03/diversity-lesson-101-asexuality.html" rel="nofollow">http://queersunited.blogspot.com/2008/03/diversity-lesson-101-asexuality.html</a>Queers Unitedhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05074493276489593816noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3451574857665049482.post-7048713058533966662010-07-17T22:44:28.840-04:002010-07-17T22:44:28.840-04:00plain beige with two blue circlesplain beige with two blue circlesAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3451574857665049482.post-18186854493568401172010-07-17T21:05:55.121-04:002010-07-17T21:05:55.121-04:00no, thank you.
