also, that door knob analogy is pretty good. Made me understand how it is she must feel Could do without thousand labels for everything -- makes me feel like I'm reading an RPG rulebook where everything is categorized to the point of exhaustion Sorry for the spam!

Okay, I get what you're saying & I think the problem here is that for some people there just isn't a good label. If she feels asexual 99% of the time, but feels attraction 1% of the time what label describes that? Sadly there isn't one. So she is using parts of multiple labels.

I'll admit I'm super ignorant about these things but this video seems so confusing to me

Not trying to convince anyone of how I see the issue but it doesn't make sense to me personally to claim to be asexual then in the same breath say you actually DO feel sexual attraction for men and women alike

it almost sounds to me like she's taking momentary instances of lack of sexual attraction and determining that to be an identity again, this is me filtering it through my ignorant/uneducated eyes and ears

also all these overlapping labels and "you probably already knew that because check out my super official Asexual Club Ring Badge It just rings of someone actively wanting titles/labels/a community (Nothing wrong with that, she ain't hurting anyone)

maybe I just have the benefit of being someone who's sexually is simple, that I never have to explain anything to anyone yet at the same time she clearly HAS an interest in explaining, so... I don't know. I'm lost.

And I know she makes an effort in explaining that by putting the burden on the viewer for "not being able to take multiple labels" (which yeah, people DO do that) but that doesn't work in this case because those labels are mutually exclusive...

that being said, she seems cool. I like the way she explain things, even if some of it makes me go "wait that's the literal opposite of what she JUST claimed"
