Asexuality/Quotes

Everything About Fiction You Never Wanted to Know.


"Sex is more exciting on the screen and between the pages than between the sheets."
"Asexuality" sounds infinitely more cool than "not getting any".
"You're a beautiful woman, probably."
The Fourth Doctor, Doctor Who, "City of Death"
"I wish my homework was asexual so it would do itself."
—Old joke on the biological definition
Asexuality is hereditary. If your parents didn't engage in sex, you won't either.
"It's like I've eaten spam a few times from a few popular brands and in a few serving suggestions, and found I'm not really keen on spam, 'cos it's salty and slimy and looks like something you might find in the alien queen's litter box. But I've found myself in a world that's completely obsessed with spam. People spend their entire lives in pursuit of spam. Every single advert on TV sells their product by placing it alongside spam. Movies have to work in at least one spam scene to reach the broadest audience. People break up and get divorced because they don't exchange enough spam. Soldiers are given time out to go have some spam. Low-risk prisoners are given spam visiting rights. People die for spam. Entire economies have been based around spam. Selling spam is the world's oldest profession. The lack of spam has been linked to mental disorders. The only thing getting teenagers through difficult puberty is the thought of one day getting to have spam of their very own. It's just tinned meat, guys."
"You have all the sexuality of one of those pandas down at the zoo who refuses to mate."
Sue Sylvester, Glee

David: I don't think Arthur's gay. I think he's A.
Keith: I don't know. I think asexual people are asexual because they don't wanna come out of the closet.

Yet I would that all men were even as I myself. Howbeit each man hath his own gift from God, one after this manner, and another after that. But I say to the unmarried and to widows, It is good for them if they abide even as I.
—The Apostle Paul, 1 Corinthians 7:7-8
