Happy pride and thank you for reading! I wanted to try my hand at exploring my identity through a comic... albeit from Goth's perspective (ok u caught me he's my self insert) Ofc this is just my experience as one singular transmasc ace guy... But feel free to share yours too! :D

@refrainbow Reminds me of a longtime school friend I had that for over a decade I knew was a far "no sex for me gross" asexual who told me very matter-of-factly one day over coffee "Yeah turns out I don't hate sex, I just hated bottoming" and that was honestly so real of them hdjJduhcjd

@refrainbow Huh! you are the second person i meet that feels this way, thank you for sharing ! it helps us inderstand better nvn

@refrainbow This makes a lot of sense. I consider myself in the greyace category. I don't desire sex but I don't mind it. I don't know if I consider the attraction I feel towards people I think are pretty as sexual, because where some crave to have sex, I crave cuddling.

@refrainbow Same?!!!! I'm attracted to woman, I find them sexy, I fantasize about, I get excited but the THOUGHT of having someone actually touching me in a sexual way grosses me out. Sex as a whole deal kinda is a nono for me but specifically the "someone touching me" part.

@refrainbow You add the LOL but I think you’ve hit on a genuinely insightful question, how much of that lack of sex drive stems from potentially dysphoria related trauma. It’s something I’ve wrestled with too, and may very well be worth unpacking. 🤟🏼

@refrainbow thank you for sharing this ray 💚💚💚💚

@kidakupo Kidaaa 💚💚💚 ty for reading!!

@refrainbow Same omg? Except I'm not fully ace, more like caedsexual. I feel so seen tho, thank you

@refrainbow I kind relate to this, in some way. At the moment, I’m trying figure out if I’m Asexual/Demisexual. (I don’t know, these terms confuse the hell out of me.) I’m a girl but, like I don’t like the idea of sex but I am curious about it. This is relatable in a way. I like the comic

@refrainbow Omg Ray!! Thank you for sharing!! I kinda relate with how i view my asexuality as well 🖤🩶🤍💜 happy pride!!!

@gebsgebsgebs GEEBS HI FI!!!

@refrainbow I have never related to a comic so strongly in my life

@refrainbow This is extremely real for me as a hypersexual asexual. Sounds weird, but to put it bluntly, I find so many people "sexy" and find myself joking "oh I'd tap that" but in all reality the actual idea of sex is confusing and scary to me. Ty for sharing <3

@refrainbow This made sense to me and is super valid! Glad that you share one of the many ways asexuality can function in terms of attraction vs. action and how we can relate to/feel this differently, and also how our relationship to gender may tie in with this. Happy Pride!

@refrainbow I feel pretty similarly! Though I realised I am not really actually asexual when I started thinking "wait I don't want to have sex bc of the experiences I've had, but if instead I had a 🍆, would I want to then?" And the answer was "yeah, sure" lol

@refrainbow this is so cute and I connected immediately. I've always struggled with my ace identify, vs my general interests when it comes to intimacy and what that means with another person. There really is no right way to go about it but it's nice to hear other people's discoveries

@refrainbow I don't know what to say except that I feel related with this mini comic and a lot of comments here, since the beginning I considere my self bi and after struggling with my body dysmorphia and dysphoria I feel comfortable as a genderfluid person makes me realize that I don't +

@refrainbow

@refrainbow I.....honestly think this is the first time I've heard someone describe their feelings that also match the feelings I have about my asexuality

@refrainbow This makes alot kf sense and the way u are showing it its really good and beautiful

@refrainbow i need to do some self reflection

@refrainbow i was like “is that my boy goth???” bc i organically found the comic and never realized i could just look you up im LOSING IT i need to catch up ong,

@refrainbow Waaa I love seeing more ace experiences on my dash, thank you for making this!!! 🥺🥹♥️

@refrainbow my experience may be a little different to yours but as someone who's asexuality and transness are also directly connected to one another, thank you for putting some of these feelings into words (and beautiful pictures)

@refrainbow This is really cool. Thank you for creating this! I love getting to hear the different ways people experience attraction and gender and self image, somehow learning how different everyone is helps me better accept myself the way I am. ❤️

@refrainbow So amazing ⭐️🌈 Happy Pride 🏳️‍⚧️

@refrainbow It actually happens with a lot of trans people! They still feel sexual in a sense but don’t feel sexual about themself or including themself because of their body no matching up with how they identify, being to uncomfortable in their body to be able to get sexual satisfaction.

@refrainbow Explaining I find other people/characters having sex sexy but the thought of ME having sex is an INSTA turn off has gotten... mixed reactions. The best one was a friend who playfully said 'oh youre just not your type!' And while more complicated I love thatvas a quick summary lol

@refrainbow This is a wild experience for me bc I can so relate even though im not ace or trans I flirt very sexually at times + I say a lot of nsfw stuff but when it comes to actual sex I hate the thought of it I'm demisexual so I've only been with a few ppl sexually + this really hits home

@refrainbow Depicting each of the boyfriends / partners? Delicious. Phenomenal.

@refrainbow I always felt this way and never expect to find some else too! I nvr have the courage to change my body and still trying to grow into it This help me to understand more about myself.T hank you for drawing this!

@refrainbow happy pride!! also this feels very close to how i view my sexuality as well... it's so strange, dissonant, confusing, and that very fact is likely why people don't like discussing it that way, but i'm happy you put it to words nonetheless. so, thank you, and do stay strong

@refrainbow Your art style is very edible
