Answer 1

I think so, I believe some people fall in love with the person not the gender.

Answer 2

This depends on what you mean by "no sexuality".

Sexuality isn't one thing, it's four or five.

Everyone has physical aspects to their sexuality, either male, female, or a combination of both.

Most people have a gender identity, a feeling of being one sex or the other.

What you seem to be asking about is orientation. The traditional way of defining orientation is in terms of to whom one is attracted. There are four possible combinations--oriented to those of the opposite sex (heterosexual), the same sex (homosexual), both sexes (bisexual) and neither (asexual).

Asexual might reasonably be described as having no primary orientation, but I'm not sure no sexuality would capture it.

Personally, I think asexual isn't an orientation, but an intensity. For example, I identify as both bisexual and asexual, because I'm attracted to both men and women, but asexual because the sexual attraction is very weak.

Most of the time, a lack of interest in sex is a sign of some dysfunction, either emotional or physical. The single most common factor here is a hormonal imbalance. In both sexes, libido (intensity of sexual desire) is highly affected by testosterone levels. Those who have less testosterone in their system compared to others of the same sex tend to have a lower sex drive; likewise, more T increases one's sex drive.

Somewhat less often, sexual dysfunction can be the product of childhood physical or sexual abuse.

Some, however, report having a perfectly happy life with no sex involved; indeed, some married couples identify as asexual and are satisfied being companions and emotionally intimate.

Based on what you've said here, it's likely you're currently asexual. This is somewhat unusual at your age, especially in males. If it worries you, you might want to talk to your parents and ask if you can get a physical checkup to check for physiological problems. You may also want to consider talking to a school couselor.

If it isn't bothering you, don't start thinking that there's something wrong with it. It's only a problem if you're asexual and don't want to be.

Answer 3

Asexual. I had a friend back in High School who I think was asexual. She really had no interest in sex, relationships, or anything. She dressed in black, didn't wear make-up or anything like that, and loved classic, British rock.

I actually saw a 60 Minutes special (I think) on asexuality. Asexual people can have romantic relationships, but they don't have sex. Sites have said that about 1% of the population is asexual.

This could be something that you grow out of, you could find yourself wanting sex in the future, or you could find yourself asexual your entire life. Either way, there's nothing wrong with it.

On the other hand, why is it so much more acceptable to be a disgusting perv with an unsatiable libido than someone who has no interest in sex at all? What about monks or celibate priests and nuns? Could it be that most of those people are asexual and decided on a religious life in which they would be accepted for their celibacy? Or they chose that life because they've never had a sexual drive (so celibacy wasn't really an issue?)

Don't worry about those idiots who tell you that you're weird because you have no interest in sex. Enjoy companionship with friends, family, pets. You can still get married to another person who is not interested in sex or even have kids (adopted even - kudos to people who adopt!!). You can do whatever you want with your life, sex or no sex.

Answer 4

You can be a "Kinsey 0," i.e., someone who has no sex drive. This is also referred to as being "asexual," but it does not mean that you have no sexuality. Sexuality is more complex than just your affectional preferences. However, being asexual, you may have insufficient sex drive to motivate you to seek sexual satisfaction or closeness with another person.

And 15, by the way, is too young to know what may eventually occur for you. Some people's sex drive does not bloom until much later.

Answer 5

don't listen to the religious people, they're insane. If you mean you have aspects of both straight and gay, than that's bisexual. if you mean you don't have any sexual attraction, you are a-sexual, which IS a condition that people have (religious idiots!) But you're young, so maybe your hormones just haven't hit you yet. But look up asexuality, there are groups and stuff on the internets.

Answer 6

It happens, usually because of physicall or psychological defect.

For example, there are birth defects that cause the genetalia to never fully develop. These poor individuals never devlope the physical maturity that triggers sexual desires. Or childhood abuse could cause an individual to associate sex with pain. Their emotional damage could cause them to not only not desire sex, but to actively avoid it.

But, odds are, this is not you. It is far more likely that you have just not reached that point in your maturity.

Enjoy it, once that urge hits, you will be hard pressed to think of anythign else.

Answer 7

Yes, as others have answered it's called A-sexuality.
What some who say it's not possible forget is that sexuality and gender are NOT the same thing.

Answer 8

Its possible you're asexual; however, I think you should give it more time. You're only 15 dude, give yourself some time to experiance life first before deciding you have no drive

Answer 9

i dont think thats possible but ur still a kid u have plenty of time and trust me ull figure it out when u stop trying to do so.

Answer 10

It's not that your neither one your just young. At this time in life; who you are and will become is up for grabs.
