It’s gray for “gray area”. Since it’s often used as an umbrella term
He meant well.
I haven’t really brought it up with him much.
During Christmas 2019 he asked my roommate, “What do we call them now? What pronouns do they use?”
…bro we’re over here trying to be nice and educate you. Calm down yourself
It’s a spectrum that also includes demisexuality if I recall correctly.
Yup. The Demi’s are usually part of the Graysexual side.
No one needs to educate me on what I’ve been my entire life, not that it’s anyone’s business.
Asexual people don’t talk about it because they’re not interested in it in any way whatsoever.
None.
So if you have someone who says they’re “halfway” or “grey”, that’s just dumb. It’s the complete and total lack of interest in that particular facet of life that will keep legit people away from groups.
…then why did you ask questions?
Heterosexuality: Liking the opposite sex.
Homosexuality: Liking the same sex.
Bisexuality: Liking both.
Pansexuality: Liking all the things, M, F, I, MtF, FtM, etc.
Asexuality: Liking no one in that way.
Demisexuality: Liking certain people in particular.
Graysexuality: Sometimes liking others in that way.
You do know there’s also grey and demi in Asexual right?
Because I’ve never heard of a “greyasexual” and thought that it was either some kind of joke or that people didn’t realize that that is exactly what happens to most people at a certain age, usually right around or after mid-life changes which are weirdly like puberty in reverse.
I do know that many people don’t talk about the effects of aging so I figured it may be a mistake.
Still, a true asexual won’t be interested in being included in any groups that discuss sexuality or have pride in their sexuality. Most don’t regard it as anything of interest or special.

Well you learn something new everyday, now you know.
Ah. You’re the gatekeeping type. I see.
I learned that even people with the best of intentions can still be really, really dumb.
That’s what I learned.
I don’t know what you mean by that. I said what I said because it’s true and is why trying to include asexual people into a sexual pride group is dumb.
You are not dumb people. Please stop doing this.
Gray and Demi even have their own flags iirc.
So you choose to ignore the knowledge, that is sad.
This is…ADVANCED GATEKEEPING
What do you mean by “gatekeeping”?
Okay mister “im so smart”. Try not to bite my head off again for answering a question
the activity of controlling, and usually limiting, general access to something.
