This is a term to describe people who may not experience sexual attraction or do not have an interest in sex. Asexuality is a spectrum- there can be varying levels of sexual, romantic or emotional attraction. Additionally, make sure to get to know what being asexual means to each person that identifies with this term. There are many people that identify as “ace” (for short) that still have sex, and enjoy it! Pictured above, the flag’s colors represent identities within an umbrella, according to The Asexuality Archive. So, black is for straight-up asexual, grey is for grey-asexuality and demisexuality, white is for non-asexual partners and allies, and purple is for the community as a whole.
