    Hello EC!

    Any asexuals having trouble coming out to parents? I don't feel comfortable talking to them about sex, mostly because they are my parents, but I don't want to keep something fundamental about myself from them. I know this isn't as big a deal as coming out as L,G,B,orT, but I don't know how to explain that I experience romantic attraction but not sexual attraction without them thinking something is wrong with me.

    Can anyone relate?

    Thanks!

    Never think that not being L G B or T is a bigger deal than being A. lol I thought I was asexual for the longest time, but I realized that I was just with the wrong gender. So, unfortunately, I can't exactly relate. But, I think this might be a good watch for you. :slight_smile: It's been going around twitter and facebook and even threads on here. Hope you enjoy it! :slight_smile:
