Anyone who wants to have an emotional connection with their sexual partner could claim that BS term just to feel special and different but there is no special terminology for such cases. You're just another person in the thousands of people who don't wanna f**k around. Those fake terms are an insult to people who are constantly trying and fighting to become accepted by societies that don't fecking like them, especially in the cases of the LGBT community.
I see that you don't know what being demisexual means. Demisexuality isn't about choices, it's about impulses. IOW, normal people don't need a deep emotional commitment to be attracted (as opposed to sexually active) to someone, whereas a demisexual MUST know someone well before lust or attraction is even possible. A demisexual will never think upon meeting someone, "S/he is HOT!" They won't get all intoxicated by smell or the sound in the voice or the wiggle in jeans, but a normal person would, even if the normal person decides that they won't ever act on sexual impulses until married. In some ways it's the opposite of mainstream society in that many feel attraction (whether or not they get sexual over it) and that attraction may fade as they get to know someone better with all their flaws whereas a demisexual won't ever feel attraction or lust until after they get to know someone.
And technically speaking, if one is "better" (as opposed to "better off") then it's the normal person because the normal actually have impulses to overcome which those who choose not to have sex until bonded (or even married) overcome their impulses while a demisexual does not. It's much like how someone who can overcome their fear is courageous while someone too stupid to be afraid in the first place (and thus no fear to overcome) is just a fool (or lucky at best). And how is it an insult to the gay community? Some gays claim to be demisexual. As for "feeling special" I know more than one demisexual who does no such thing, they can be all for free love, polyamory, and the like for others while realizing they'll never pick someone up in a bar or club or crush on someone they don't know that well the way most others will instead. One was best friends with someone very promiscuous with strangers and saw nothing wrong with it. I know there's a misconception that asexuals and demisexuals are just prudes but that's not often the case. At least in my experience (and reading some articles by those who claimed to be that way, and also Odette's posts in other threads) they tend to be less judgmental and hung up about sex than most people, possibly because it's not such an overwhelming force for them, though realizing they're a minority may also be a factor.

^  I fit the demisexuality description and there's nothing wrong with that. If people can relate to it, why not? Mars conj. Pluto / sq. Saturn

And what is the problem with demisexuality? I mean, come on. The only issue is possibly that the person doesn't feel the emotional connection you feel back. I don't see why being demisexual is bad. I think I am very demisexual and am offended when I have sex outside of relationship and emotional bounds. I just feel so detached from the act. That is probably exactly why. Again, I don't see the issue smh.IP: Logged |

^ Exactly.But then again, I'm still young so I'm pretty sure my sexual preferences will change overtime. Anyway, everyone's different, there's no point in badmouthing anything/anyone, it's just silly! At least Choc got attention though

Haha I'm 20 so I again am young too and overtime, I already know when my Mars progresses to even the next sign, Leo, I will most definitely become a whole lot more sexual but right now, it is all about connection first. Oh how it conflicts with my Venusian rousings in Sagittarius lol IP: Logged |

Me too! Great feeling. Everytime I read your posts, I'm like "yeah, that's right! :nods:" 
You're not the first one to tell me that.. I guess there's some truth to it. Or maybe I just learn fast #Gem SN 
I like Earth, too. But in small doses cause I'm quite earthy myself! I need stimulation and stability at the same time - Earth Moon in 5th.
Ps. Sorry for derailing thread!

i have a 3rd house stellium and communication in foreplay or during sex is very important, i can be very verbal and i must take the lead. my sexual energies are unsaturated. though women often feel allured by me, i dont have random sex.im picky on woman, there has to be a intense connection, telepathically, physically and beyond words in relationship. fortunately i stay mobile and find outlets in sports, work and outdoor activities as a compensation to balance. mars and pluto conjunct both in scorpio and both in 1st house.

Can't say I relate to the other Capricorn mars on here.(though I just realized today that it probably has to do with my Chiron in 8th house gemini, and all my Scorpio placements) At least when I was virginal..I believed it should always be about love. And true, I think that that's ideal. My experience/feelings on this topic are conflicted. I have an easy time in this department w/o love and have gained more knowledge and pleasure w/o love. Though it can be harder on your self morally. While in love, however ...I have a much harder time when it comes to sex and creates psychological issues. Interesting reads from others though  IP: Logged |

Aww you're a 5th house Mooner, too?! Awesome!! We rule I'm nothing like a Virgo Moon when I'm with friends/in society. I quite enjoy the spotlight actually lol. And our Moons are opposite by sign! But definitely not by degree, actually they'd be considered quincunx with a 2° orb. Hehe that's why we're both on an astro forum, trying to find meaning - Sag NN

Oh most definitely... I am surprised that anyone with a Virgo or Cap moon would be on a astro forum lol but I am glad all of y'all are here. You're very great people. Haha I come out around the family and friends. I will display my Sag Venus more than my Cancer Mars but I will always have it and be happy about it no matter whether it is in its fall or not. Great doesn't equal perfect but I love everyone I met here so far. That freaking quincunx! Why... Are you an 80s or 90s baby if I may ask? IP: Logged |

I know right, Earth Moons are usually so practical and rational, most of them don't even know what the word "spirituality" means (yes I'm exaggerating - I know there are tons of fellow Earthy Moons here ). Err I don't wanna tell my age cause I feel like I'm gonna be judged based on it.
You can find my email in the Astrology For Beginners forum though, if you'd like to talk, I'm open! And so that we can stop derailing this thread, haha.

Oh Boy..Choc - Basically - long story cut short... you know that feeling you get downstairs when you *want* someone.... I do not get that with anyone I meet - EVER - regardless of their appearance. I don't get it with any stranger, acquaintance, famous people I do not know etc... The feeling, the urge, the desire - is non-existent. quote: Anyone who wants to have an emotional connection with their sexual partner could claim that BS term
Everyone would like/want to have an emotional connection. The point is I feel *nothing* sexually - literally *nothing* - if there is no connection. Nothing visual or physical turns me on. I'm not sure how else to put it. PixieJane!!

Female/Hetero Retrograde Mars in Cancer in 9th house squared by Venus in Pisces and trine Mercury in Aquarius in 5th. I was a virgin until 24 at which point I experimented with sex but got bored because there are only so many places where you can stick it! I've been celebate now for about a quarter century and when I experience sex again, I want it to be in the context of a commited relationship. HOWEVER, though my body falls on the convent end of the convent-to-brothel scale, my mind is definately on the brothel end of the spectrum. My sense of humor and thought life are VERY sexual and I "take matters into my own hands" on a regular basis.IP: Logged |

that is a bit weird but not suprising coming from Cap placements. And she has it as 29 degrees making that placement more intense. I have my mars in cap at 5 degrees and I dont feel that way. I can do casual sex. IP: Logged |

Sagittarius. Since it fits me so well, I'll paste this mash-up from the Net:These passionate lovers are turned on by open-mindedness and good humor. Their direct, blunt approach is most obvious in bed. They are direct and forthcoming with their needs and desires with an almost innocent frankness. They love to have fun in bed, or just as often outdoors. Sex is just like any other sport to them. Laughing and roughhousing are huge turn-ons, but they are actually a bit selfish in sex. Their need to get their way will almost always be expressed. Games are acceptable for Sagittarius lovers, just as long as they are not too time consuming or intricate. They have little patience with people talking about or deciding everything in advance. If you play hard to get or beat around the bush with them, you will end up without them. The same goes for too much seriousness or romancing. The best way to approach sex with these people is to just do it. I became sexually active quite young and my 20s were very active. Of note, I was celibate for 5 years in my 30s. I guess it was a time of exploring Sagittarian ideals of higher spirituality and almost became a Buddhist monk! Also, my Mars is square Pluto, so I can be intense, chthonic, and into power struggles. And I'm such a sweet Virgo. IP: Logged |

I have Mars at 3 deg and Neptune at 5 deg in Capricorn (both direct). It depends on what you mean by casual.. If casual means with a stranger/acquaintance... then I'm not interested because they don't turn me on. If it just means sex outside a monogamous rel.. like fwb, then ya sure.. I mean as long as - I am turned on and the situation is positive (as in: it feels good!!) & safe (as in: neither of us will catch an STD) -- both physically and psychologically (as in: no harassment, such as game-playing) -- I have no reason not to have sex. That's how I see it lol IP: Logged |

Sex is my opportunity to become a part of the other...to make a lasting impression, to merge two into one, to consume another and devour them in my own eroticism. I can separate love and sex but I cannot separate intimacy and sex. Having sex with someone is giving them a part of me and taking a part of them. It does not have to involve emotions other than passion and lust but it does have to involve connection and absolute consumption. I can mold myself to whatever my partner wants me to be...submissive, dominant, I'm a role-player, I'm into toys (big time!) and I'm into things that others consider weird and maybe even dangerous. Sex is not only a release but also a connection on some level that I can't even explain.On the other hand, when I don't have any sexual partners, I am fine. I don't need a sexual partner to feel sexually fulfilled. In fact, I am my own best sexual partner...masturbation will always trump sex with others. Sucks to be my boyfriend, I guess..lol Mars in Pisces, 5th house, trine Venus, conjunct Jupiter, square Mercury and Uranus IP: Logged |

I just feel so uncomfortable with having sex with anyone because I catch feelings and those results aren't always favorable.
