Is it normal to have absolutely no libido or other sexual feelings

43% Normal
10 Comments

To put it simply, I've never felt any sort of attraction to anyone, which is just asexuality, but, I've also never felt any sort of sexual feeling at all. I've never had a libido, never felt any sort of physical stimuli, never had the desire to have sex, or masturbate. I'm also repulsed by sex. Everything is completely void, and I've even been told by other asexuals that it isn't normal and I need to get treated, some have even claimed I'm physically a different species. I've never met a single person that is like me, I feel *nothing*. Is this normal?

    Everyone is different. There are those that can't get enough, and those who think its gross.
    It is more common to enjoy sex, even if it is not that often but to never want sex at all is not common therefore not normal.

    That being said people of young age under 13 would be normal not to have sexual feelings, same could be said of the elderly.

    Nope, I can't relate.
    But in many ways I envy you.
    It free's you up.
    If your'e not pursuing sex.
    Then there should be no limit to what you can do.
    If you can find a way to chanel that same drive.
    A famous german ruler did.
    he went from near homeless, painter.
    To ruler of a world power.
    In just roughly 13 years.
    Unless you're fat, or a gamer.
    Then you're just.. Eh.

      I don't think they should put themselves in the situation if the thought makes them uncomfortable

    Not even to masturbate? Hm could it just be that you don't have a balance hormone or are you mentally refusing your urges or do you not feel urges altogether? When you say you don't feel urges is it you saying that, or your body? Because anyone can think "I'm not into this" and their body will vouch for the thought. It's a mind over matter thing admittedly not "normal " but its not necessarily a bad thing. If you find pleasure from other things in your life and you aren't hurting anyone I don't see you as a bad person

      It's no urges whatsoever, I know there isn't anything wrong with having the urges but my body doesn't have any urges, and neither does my brain

        Don't feel bad for seriously if you feel bad you're really just freeing yourself up to focus on more important things those urges are instinctual and are our primitive ways to keep up a population but I don't think it has to apply to everyone you're just a bit different its no biggie and I've heard of stranger things before

    I agree its a type of glitch but not a bad thing. Just like there are gays, there are asexuals. Tbh youre probably better off than normal people in many ways.

    What others think about this is irrelevant.

    The only thing that does matter is how you feel about it. If you're distressed to some degree by what you feel is a yawning gap in your life and you desperately wish you could be more "normal", then you should seek professional help. If you're content with how you are, you have a fulfilling life (however you define that) and you can't imagine how your life might be improved if you did feel sexual desire, then it might be best for you to mainly focus on finding ways to deal with those who criticise you for how you are.

    The only thing in your post that does wave red flag is you saying that you're "repulsed" by sex. That suggests you're not completely indifferent about the topic, but instead have strong negative feelings about sex. Often, fear and past trauma are the underlying cause of strong feelings of revulsion. It's never a Good Thing when someone refuses to acknowledge and deal with psychological damage and rather allows it to warp their life.
