Depends who you ask. I personally find it to be, my younger sister who's asexual finds kissing to be sexual but touching not so much. Others, like my close friend, find them to completely nonsexual acts.
Sometimes they're sexual, sometimes they're not. Making out with hands going under clothes and so on can be sexual, but a closed-mouth kiss and embrace is less so.
Okay...but if one does that but one's not interested in having sex would that make one assexual? ---------- Post added 24th Nov 2013 at 02:57 AM ---------- By 'that' I mean making out with hands under clothing and kissing deeply and so on.
it does not mean you have to define your self as asexual, but asexuality is certainly valid thier is an organization that you can check out The Asexual Visibility and Education Network | asexuality.org
I think there's different kinds of touching and kissing. If you feel vulnerable and tingly while doing it, then yes, its sensual and romantic, which can lead to sex.
But if even though it's that way not wanting to go farther is another issue...in trying to figure out if I'm homosexual or homoromantic. Thanjs though!
Yes, it depends on the specifics, especially "touching." There are things like heavy petting which are quite sexual in meaning. IMO, you should not judge by your actions but your internal feelings.
