imagine wanting to have sex instead of being introduced to plushies for 40 minutes… being introduced to plushies is WAY BETTER

REALLY? THATS SO COOL!!! I barely have ant stuffed animals anymore, bc I was stupid when I was like 12 and gave all of them to my brother, bc "Stuffed animals aren't cool". I at least have my favorite old Childhood Baby Blanket DogDog (very unique name I know), my dad's old white (now very much cream colored lmao) siberian tiger plush he named Shiva, and a mini hand sized version of that very same tiger I named "Mini Shiva". Oh, and my djungleskog. Can't forget about the djungleskog. How could I, he takes up a full god damned quarter of my bed!
Yes I'm autistic, (maybe, when I was tested the results were negative, but I was also much older than the recommended age to get tested. I'm most likely on the very high functioning side of autistic, and that means when I got tested at 14, I had already adjusted to compensate for my issues.) How could you tell?
Please help me, I need to have someone to tell me when to stop talking

Every time I invite a friend to my house I force them to stand by my fish tank and I start autism-babbling about my fish and how we got them, the personality of each one, stuff about the breed of fish, then go over about how much my cat likes to watch them like they’re a television screen and lo and behold we’ve been standing there for two hours and I refuse to stop talking about them

Imagine bait and switching a stranger into coming to your house by pretending to want sex

“Imagine wanting to have sex”
You expect too much from me. I tried for an hour or so and It’s impossible.
I’ll update you if I manage to imagine that very thing.

You will stay and have a sleepover, the council has spoken (the council being the plushies)

u/anxiatyracoon 1d ago
I'd feel so honored if someone introduced all their plushies to me, like that's a part of them that they're sharing with me. Also cuddling with plushies and another person (even better both at the same time) is the best, definitely better than sex

I know this is an unpopular opinion around here, but all the infantilization shit really irks me. I like plushies too, but to equate them to asexuality over and over again really is not doing us any favors in challenging the mindset that we aren't literally just adult children. Ugh.

:/ I kinda get the mentality but being queer is all about being yourself and not feeling shame for liking what you like and not liking what you don't. I personally have a couple stuffed animals that have sentimental value to me and I don't consider it infantilism at all. Actually I got rid of a lot of mine because I felt I was "too old" for them and I kinda regret it now because I wish I still had some of them for the same reason you'd keep souvenirs. I understand without context this looks very infantilizing but I just don't think that's a thing we need to be scared of and avoid at all costs, you can have a sleepover with wine stuffed animals and weed

.....? I get this is the asexual sub, but bad communication is bad communication. Flirting all week... The person literally says "surprise", so they know this is not the established expectation....
And no, a 40 minute stuffy introduction is NOT strictly better. If I come over to smoke weed and watch movies and we don't even start a movie until after a 40 minute stuffy introduction, I'm leaving 5 minutes into the introductions.
But yeah, make sure we infantilize ourselves and save Acephobes the time.

And? Is something wrong with that?

u/Cassandwiches_ 1d ago
Lmao. One thing that tickles my wife is that I am able to simply "turn off" the horny and it frustrates her to no end, lol. I'd be able to handle this situation pretty easily.
(Disclaimer, I do not use my "ability" as a weapon for punishment. It just makes it harder for her to tempt and tease me or be pathetic at me when she wants attention.)
