[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My 18 year, who is a freshman in college, told me recently that she is asexual.  She has never had a boyfriend and says she has never had a crush on a boy or a girl. But, she’s also a very anxious kid, who spent end of sophomore and junior years in HS in tele-learning, and most of her HS friends didn’t date.  I told her that was fine, and that what was important in life was developing high quality relationships, and those relationships didn’t have to be romantic or sexual.  I also told her that die to modern fertility treatments, she could choose to have children (or not) without being in a sexual relationship.

There is so much these days about LGBTQ.  Does anyone have a kid who is asexual?  Did they continue to identify as asexual as they got older? I’m taking her seriously and certainly not telling her she’s not asexual. But I wonder if COVID lockdowns played  a role in making her less socially advanced. As an added twist, she is below the 1% in BMI (not an earring disorder, just how she has always been) and doesn’t produce enough estrogen to control her period.  So, she hemorrhages for half the month unless she’s on BC pills. So, I wonder if there is a hormonal element at play.

Any thoughts (of the nice, helpful variety)?[/quote]

Why are you involved in another adult sex life? Their sex life is private and they are the ones who have to deal with it regardless of how they identify themselves. You don't need to label them because they experience different things at that age. Just stay away from other people private lives. [/quote]
