I was waist deep in the trenches of post-Prop 8 California when I realized that I was asexual. It had taken me five years to find the word for what I had been experiencing. When I started using the word asexual  in the LGBT community, most people didn't have any idea what I was talking about. There were unintentional hurtful comments made. My favorite response? "Oh, that doesn't exist."
