If you know what asexuality is, good on you! But, if you don't know what asexuality is, here's an explanation of what it is. An Asexual is someone who does not experience sexual attraction. There are many different types of asexuality: Heteromantic (Only romantically attracted to a person of the opposite gender), Homoromantic (Only romantically attracted to a person of the same gender), Biromantic (Only romantically attracted to both males and females), Panromantic (romantic attraction towards people of every gender), Polyromantic (attraction towards multiple, but not all genders), Grey-Romantic (A person who doesn't often experience romantic attraction), and Demiromantic (Forms a deep romantic relationship with an individual after a close emotional bond has been formed).

There is also aromantic. Aromantic people do not experience (or rarely) romantic attraction. (I'm so sorry for leaving this out before. You guys caught my attention and I totally apologize. Sorry, Aromantics.)

What kind of asexual am I? I am a Heteromantic Asexual, which means that I am only romantically attracted to people of the opposite gender.
