Asexuality and other links

Category: The Web | 1 Comments | Posted 22:39

Hello I'm back. I'm alive, I'm ok, thanks for your sweet messages everyone. Maybe more on that one day. Maybe not. Now for some links.

Newscientist: Glad to be asexual
Very long article, I doubt any of you will wanna read it, tho it is interesting. The bottom line of it is: there are many people out there who feel no sexual desire and there need not be a disorder or trauma underlying it all. They are, essentially, announcing to the world that they are not broken or defective, or sexually dysfunctional. [...] Unsurprisingly, one of the hardest things about being asexual is convincing other people that there is nothing wrong with you. It goes on to say that (rare) studies have shown that this affects about 1% of the population and that there is evidence of asexual behaviour in other mammals as well. Well, interesting read for sure.

On a "lighter" note, there was some fabulous stuff in last week's B3ta newsletter.

Crazy llama song
Not unlike "badger badger badger - mushroom!!", but more disturbing, and definitely more addictive! Fucking hilarious!!!

Zoomy art project
This is incredibly cool. Woosh thru it al full speed for the funkiest effect, or zoom slowly and marvel at all the amazing detail.

ShittyBum
Obscure video for obscure song by obscure (Dutch) band... takes a while to load but it's strangely compelling.

Edit This Gif is kinda funny too. (apparently it's an old joke tho)
