Abstract | Asexuality was absent from the sexual orientation lexicon as recently as a decade ago (Bigio, Davenport, Pinder, Chevigny, & Tucker, 2011). However visibility of asexual people has been growing. For example, Asexuality Visibility and Education Network's (AVEN, n.d.b) first Community Census in 2011 received 3,430 responses while responses to the 2014 census more than tripled to 10,880 respondents. Much of the research on asexuality (Bogaert, 2012; Scherrer, 2008; Van Houdenhove, Gijs, T'Sjoen, & Enzlin, 2014) associates asexuality as part of the lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, and queer (LGBTQ) community, aggregating asexuality with all other minoritized identities of sexuality and gender. The article is a study which seek to amplify the perspectives, identities, and needs of students representing a breadth of asexual identities, rather than grouping them into a larger community where their perspectives are not represented. The authors sought to examine asexual college students' reflections on being included within the LGBTQ lexicon and community. (ERIC). |
