I am a panromantic asexual.
I am also an aegosexual, which is a asexual spectrum micro-label that means I experience sexual arousal but have no desire to engage in real life sexual activities with others.
A person is considered an asexual if they do not experience sexual attraction to people (people as in actual real humans. fictional anthros do not count).
I am not “inexperienced” when it comes to relationships. In fact, the real life relationships I’ve had actually made me go from questioning that I’m ace to realizing that I’m ace. It’s hard to explain my own ace experiences without getting into too much detail, but personally, to me, real world sex is kinda boring.
It’s a confusing mess, I know.
But those three labels: panromantic, asexual, aegosexual are the ones I feel most accurately describe myself.
Maybe I’ll find more accurate terms in the future, but those are the ones that work best for me right now.
Happy pride month!

Happy pride month fellow ace!
IRL Mal: “I really struggled with calling myself ace, especially with all *this stuff* I have going on, but it’s really how I feel in the real world.”
Toon Mal: “😵💫, I guess I’m fine with this… so long as you use me as a ‘coaster’ for garlic bread!”

Same here, though I am a bit of a romantic myself and I do hope to find someone that I could at least be in a ‘Queer Platonic Relationship’ with. When it comes to “sexy things”, I’m perfectly happy with how I’m doing things right now! For that, all I need is just paper, a pencil, and the imagination to draw giant mallets slamming anthros into pancakes!
Oh hey, I'm the exact same way! I've struggled for a long time to figure out how to call myself when others ask. Do I say I'm ace, even though I'm attracted to anthros, but I'm practically attracted to no one IRL? Or do I say I'm gay, because I'm attracted to MALE anthros, but none of it is real? So thanks for teaching me a super useful term!
Reading the description of aegosexuality sounded just like autochorrisexuality. I just looked it up and apparently its the same thing!
For years I tried to figure out what I really was since no label really applied to me. I learned about autochorrisexuality about six years ago and it really fit what my experience has been. Aegosexual is much easier to say now so I'll definitely go by this from now on.
Happy Pride! <3

I dunno what asexual would ever see fit to look down on another person for their label when asexuals are already themselves the problem children lol, but I'm an asexual and I don't think there's anything wrong with your aegosexuality! I know this is an old post by now but still, we shouldn't be normalizing making fun of or speaking badly about how people see themselves (so long as it's not hurting themselves or anybody else of course).
To be totally honest tho lol I never really did enjoy having solid definitions for these things at all, like we're diagnosing personalities, it just feels stupid and restrictive no matter how many words we make up for it, people just are who they are and trying to define it will only serve to create stereotypes that make people feel unseen even among people with the same label as them. I only refer to myself as asexual and aromantic because it's easier than explaining the full concept every time someone asks why I'm not looking for a girlfriend lol
