Maybe my recent "don't give a shit" is a product of recent life events. Attraction included, because I was basically disinterested in the entire mess.
Then my brother linked... uh... PG13, but probably NSFW...

So the rib is trans what is the fruit?

The fruit is a true hermaphrodite, able to produce both male and female gametes (once it has matured).

I don't think the fruit from that tree can actually reproduce so to speak.

That raises an interesting question - what does one call someone who is physically asexual? Not in the sexual orientation sense, but in the sense of, say, male* but had a congenital defect such that their genitalia were entirely absent**?

*Missing the female gonads is a little trickier to manage.

**Off the top of my head it seems unlikely that such defects would really be a thing, but if we accept that it's an absurd hypothetical?

There was once another forum with a poll asking what everyone's sexuality was. Straight was tied with "Apache Attack Helicopter"

Arx, Asexual is actually the formal term, yeah. People started using that for people who prefer their relationships to be intercourse-free, which confuses things.

Honestly, we should probs come up with a better word for "No Sex Pls". Or redefine orientation in terms of Attraction like in the thought experiment a few pages ago. That works better than defining orientation as Who You Want To Have Sex With, so people don't have to specify that they still want romantic relationships but don't experience sexual desire. Androphilic/Gynophilic casts love and romantic attraction as the important part, rather than the sexy times, and I like the simplicity.

Aw shit.
I guess I better put "daily eating of hermaphrodites" into my list of sins.

Asexual, like pretty much any related term, has fallen victim to the umbrella syndrome, meaning a whole lot of people just kinda nabbed it and used it to describe a wide range of "ew, sex" behaviors. Kinda like pansexual became trendy in the last years and started being used to describe pretty much everything and everyone who might have had attraction for something other than the opposite sex for a few miliseconds. When myspace was a thing it was the easiest way to nab a friendship invite from impressionable 16 year olds. You just slapped pansexual into your profile and bob's your uncle.

All that elf booty and hairy dwarf chests, gone to waste.

Also why the hell does plato look so much like socrates in his depictions? Did greek philosophers have a dress code of looking like wise hobos? Probably, because many of them were literal wise hobos anyway.
Also I do think that is a statue of socrates but WHO CARES they're all beardy wise men with cool ideas that prob touched boybutts on ocasion.
