Asexual yaoi?

Drowning in books December 14, 2015 8:48 pm

Hello! I was just wondering if any of you know a yaoi where one of the characters (or both) is asexual? My best friend is asexual and he finds it frustrating he can never really find a yaoi with that theme.
Thanks in advance!

    Asexuality (or nonsexuality) is the lack of sexual attraction to anyone, or low or absent interest in sexual activity. (wiki)
    Don't get me wrong but yaoi (which is mostly about sexual attraction between two (or more xD) males) with asexual character is just not it XD .
    But maybe there is shounen ai but I didn't find it. I think mangakas don't want that kind of character because they like to create sexual tension between charatcers and it can be sensitive topic so if they do a bad job they can be criticized a lot. And if one of the characters doesn't want to have sex it's usually because they were abused or something like that and in the end they are 'cured' by their partner.
    But that would be a nice topic, I would like to read it.

    you ever heard of shounen ai? Just find one where they don't include smut either, light stuff.
    However if you are looking for a story which deals with characters that are asexual, I can't really help you there. It's kind of not the point when reading something like yaoi.

    As someone belonging in a type of sexual minority I know how frustrated your friend must feel, but if he doesn't mind not being represented I think shounen ai will be good with him.

    Finding manga about asexuality seems possible, but unlikely to be tagged yaoi. Feel like I've read something more what you are looking for at some point. . . Try searching some other tags & genres (maybe seinen or mature?)

    Sorry.. Your 'asexual' here means transvestite or transsexual? If so, there're many..

    Thanks, I was actually looking for a representation but yeah, I guess he won't mind shounen ai too much. :)

    Asexuality has nothing to do with cross-dressing or any of the sort. Asexuality means you don't desire any sexual interaction/activity. I hope you understand, thanks anyways though! :)

    Now I'm glad I asked first because somewhere they call transvestite or transsexual as asexual..

    Oh man the struggle to find a manga that represents your sexuality, it's freaking real. I think it would be really interesting if someone found a shounen ai that had asexual character/s which is also one of the reasons I replied, I want to see if anyone scoops anything up :)

    Btw I found a yuri that has asexuality in it: https://www.mangaupdates.com/series.html?id=79182 and, well this: https://www.mangaupdates.com/series.html?id=7422 but I'm afraid that's it :/

    I'm asexual too and was looking for yaoi with asexual characters, wouldn't mind if they had sex though, but in all the years I've never stumbled across anything like that. QwQ
    Still I think it's so sweet of you to search for suitable manga for him!! ლ(´ڡ`ლ)
