Response: Asexuality on Campus and Beyond
Identification in the line of sexuality is getting to a point where it is almost becoming a liberal aspect where one can deny or accept to be referred to in that context. Sexuality or asexuality is nothing to worry about if one is left out of it nowadays. Asexuality, probably, a couple of years before this generation would appear as a social weakness and maybe to some degree a disability. The issue of rising independence is offering a platform for people to do what they find appealing to them alone and leaving out what that could mean to society.
Notably, the interviewee responds satisfactorily to the trends currently evident in the rising asexuality. However, I’m afraid I have to disagree with the fact that some NGOs among other influential humanitarian organizations are out there promoting asexuality. This issue, I suggest, should be debated with a warning tone if possible. Otherwise, if the community lets it be free to discuss, then, definitely, people are going to adopt and fit into the new traditions that are most likely going to destruct the society’s social standards.
Nonetheless, from the interview, asexuality is a preferable topic that should debate the issue pertaining to the transgender family, given their situation is nothing deliberate. Contrarily, if at all the subject of asexuality has to discuss sexuality at large, then I suppose it should only work in favour of some groups of the LGBTQ community. It would be fair of it to keep the focus on the issues of the transgender and the bisexual only. Perhaps or perhaps not, holding a conversation about the gay and lesbian community should be held on a disconnected platform away from asexuality.
In general, asexuality is some distance away from the isolation of oneself from the community and its norms. I may not entirely deny the fact the people are at liberty to identify with it anyway. But I suppose it should only be under the condition that the society can accept and treat it positively. But before then, it is important to push and create more awareness in the community about it.
