So, I read your article in Bamboo (p.s. I have some major issues with Bamboo's new formatting -- like making me hunt through ten pages to find the rest of articles!), and recognized its roots/echoes in this post, and had some questions, which this flocked post may or may not be an appropriate forum to discuss them in, (feel free to delete and bring up in person with me at a later point if you want) but I didn't want to forget that I wanted to discuss them with you.
I had a question, in regards to your asexuality in association with, I suppose, your future. Assuming that you find your male (of whatever race/ethnicity) that you are attracted to, and he is similarly attracted to you, and the two of you are interested in pursuing a long-term relationship. But he happens to be heterosexual. Would you be giving up your not-sex and have sex despite not being interested and/or wanting it, or would he be giving up his sex and remain abstinent in this relationship? Or would you find an asexual, heteroromantic male to pursue long-term relationships with? (Because I'm pretty sure that will narrow down your options, a lot.)
