(1) I will never has sex as an Asexual.....Nope. Asexuality is the lack of sexual attraction and nothing more, whether you have sex or not is entirely down to you
(2) As an Asexual I will never have kids...Nope, like sex, whether or not you have kids has nothing to do with Asexuality but has everything to do with your choices
(3) I have to join the lgbt to be Asexual....Nope. Some, not all, who are gay,bi,trans, allies etc do feel a natural empathy with the lgbt. Asexuality as a movement has nothing to do with the lgbt, but some within the Asexual movement do feel an affinity themselves. Again personal choice is the decider here
(4) I can't be Asexual, I'm over 25...Nope

(5) As an Asexual I will die alone in a room full of cats....Nope, well mostly not

(6) I could never date a Sexual...Nope, sexuals are not muggles. We only have one difference as an Asexual, everything else is as applicable to Asexuals as it is sexuals and like all relationships, compatibility, compromise and your feelings for your partner decides your relationship. Most Asexuals who have relationships, have them with sexuals...again relationships are choices
(7) I have Autism, adhd, a mental Illness, celibacy, low libido, am sexually repulsed etc and these make me asexual....Nope, to date there has not been one shred of evidence that supports "you are asexual because (insert reason) Some still work on born this way, some also feel they do not discover it till later in life. A point to add here, sexuals also have these issues so as such they are not exclusive to Asexuals
(8) as an Asexual I am a freak, broken, destined to be a loner....Nope. Most of the time you can't shut Asexuals up, especially on the internet. Asexuality is just one small part of us..one..everything else is down to you. We do seem to beat ourselves up a bit but we need to cut ourselves some slack a bit more often. You are not a freak, you just have one single difference and it is only 1 part of you
(9) Asexuality is a phase.....nope and yes. For most it will be but for some it is a lifelong but how are you supposed to know if it is lifelong until you start somewhere?
(10) Do I have to be a politically correct social justice warrior special snowflake to be an Asexual? ...


These are just a few so feel free to add any other myths about asexuals if you wish
