This week we will be celebrating International Asexuality Day on April 6th - so today we're getting into it in preparation.
What is asexuality? And why is it important to understand?
As an Ace person, this is definitely a topic Katie is passionate about (pun intended)...
Key takeaways from this episode are:
1. Asexuality, as a sexual orientation within the queer community, involves experiencing little or no sexual attraction.
2. Asexuality is a spectrum, encompassing various experiences and attitudes towards sex and sexual attraction, such as greysexual and demisexual identities.
3. Understanding asexuality challenges assumptions about relationships, attraction, and sexual orientation, and emphasises the importance of communication in defining and navigating our experiences and how we develop relationships.
Reflection question:
How can we create space for diverse experiences of attraction and sexual orientation within our understanding of relationships and inclusion?
Intrigued?
Join me as we explore the nuances of asexuality and consider how its understanding can enhance our journey towards a more inclusive society.
