I'm so tired of seeing 'demisexual' tossed around like it's some sort of aberrant practice when really, it's just HEALTHY to want trust & a connection with intimate partners.

\Disclaimer - I AM EXASPERATED. Please forgive my liberal use of italics and capitalization.*

In a reality not warped by pornsick men, 'demisexual' behavior is NORMAL, HEALTHY, and BASELINE.

Hookup culture is toxic and dangerous, and I won't be a part of it. I consider my desire to have trust and a connection before sex becomes a possibility to be entirely reasonable.

It's simple self-preservation. Pregnancy, disease, abuse, injury ...... You risk ALL OF THAT NONSENSE continually. WHY? Why would any sane being subject themselves to that?

I blame porn, I blame society, I blame MEN for allowing themselves to become so fucking warped that they can't even comprehend, and have the scrotacity to act offended that I am not going to jump in the sack with them immediately, and then act like I am asking them to cut off their genitals to respect me as a human being.

End of rant.

ETA; Getting a lot of comments saying this isn't what true demisexuality is ........ I know. Big part of what I'm complaining about is how it's used to label any woman who refuses to have sex at the drop of a hat.
