Aromanticism, asexuality, and relationship (non-)formation: How a-spec singles challenge romantic norms and reimagine family life

Hannah Tessler

Sexualities·2023·16 citations

In this study, I demonstrate how individuals on the aromantic and asexual spectrums navigate their sexual and intimate relationships. Through quantitative data analysis as well as interviews with aromantic and/or asexual singles, this study reveals the complexity of sexuality and intersections between sex, romance, and constructs of family. First, I highlight how alloromantic (non-aromantic) asexual singles are most likely to express interest in romantic relationships, followed by aromantic allosexual (non-asexual) singles, whereas aromantic asexual singles showed little interest in romantic relationships. Then, I focus on how aromantic and asexual spectrum interviewees (1) subvert expectations for normative sexual and romantic partnership, (2) untangle notions of sex, romance, and family, and (3) reimagine relationships and kinship to form their own intimacies.

COMMON CHALLENGES IN VIETNAMESE-ENGLISH TRANSLATION OF ENGLISH-MAJORED JUNIORS AT TAY DO UNIVERSITY, VIETNAM

It is undoubted that translation plays an indispensable role in exchanging information, news, culture, literature and sciences among people globally. In other words, translation facilitates communication and understanding between people who come from various cultures and speak different languages. Owing to the significance of translation, it is employed as a fundamental subject to English majored students. Nevertheless, it is not an easy subject for students to master. Thus, this study aimed at investigating the obstacles that students often encountered when translating texts from Vietnamese to English. This was a quantitative and qualitative research. The questionnaire and test paper were used as two major instruments to gain the most reliable findings. To achieve the goal, 74 English majored juniors from both English 10A and 10B at Tay Do University were selected as the sample for this research. The results showed that English majored juniors faced many challenges in Vietnamese - English translation, consisting of vocabulary, grammatical structures and cultural aspects

Asexual identity development and internalisation: a thematic analysis

Sinéad Kelleher, Mike Murphy

Sexual and Relationship Therapy·2022·24 citations

This study aimed to identify components of asexual identity development and internalisation in the context of an allonormative society, with an added focus on the intersection of gender roles and romantic identities. 99 participants between the ages of 18 and 72 (M = 27.97, SD = 10.36) completed an open-ended questionnaire which was analysed using thematic analysis. Four major themes were identified: being asexual; becoming asexual; intimate social expression; and internalisation. Findings suggest that the process of discovering asexuality and identifying with the asexual community is a common experience among asexuals, and is not dependent upon a specific sexual, romantic or gender identity. Moreover, the negative ways in which many participants understand their lack of sexual attraction may be related to allonormativity and the internalisation of negative attitudes towards asexuality. However, participants' approach to disclosure and relationships, as well as their willingness to openly express their asexuality appeared to be dependent upon their gender identities and the nature of their desired relationships. Romantic-identified participants typically sought emotional intimacy and considered their asexuality to hinder their relationships, and female participants experienced greater sexual coercion when coming out. The theoretical implications of each theme within asexual identity development and internalisation are discussed.

Experiences of Italian Asexual and Aromantic Individuals in Healthcare Settings: from Explicitly Aggressive to Affirming Interactions

Sofia Pavanello Decaro, Antonio Prunas, Ben Servi, Cinzia Albanesi, Maric Martin Lorusso

Journal of LGBTQ Issues in Counseling·2025·3 citations

Asexual and aromantic spectrum identities (ASPEC) experience stigma and invisibility and are at risk of worse mental health outcomes. Healthcare providers lack knowledge on the topic of asexuality and aromanticism, resulting in intentional or unintentional discriminations. The present study explores the interactions of ASPEC people with healthcare providers. We used Codebook Thematic Analysis, a qualitative methodology based on an online questionnaire completed by 284 ASPEC people. The six resulting themes ranged from Manifest aggression to Microaffirmation. Participants’ experiences highlight that clinical settings are often unsupportive spaces, exposing them to greater vulnerability and pointing to the lack of training for professionals.

Sexuality, Sexual Behavior, and Relationships of Asexual Individuals: Differences Between Aromantic and Romantic Orientation

Ana Catarina Carvalho, David L. Rodrigues

Archives of Sexual Behavior·2022·21 citations

Asexuality is a complex construct with a considerable lack of research until recently. Building upon available findings, we examined the extent to which romantic orientation shapes individual and relationship experiences, and expectations of asexual individuals. Specifically, our research focused on the distinction between romantic asexual individuals, who experience romantic attraction, and aromantic asexual individuals, who do not experience romantic attraction. A cross-sectional study with members of different asexual online communities (N=447, 55.02% women; Mage=24.77 years, SD=7.21) aimed at examining how both groups differ in their identification with the asexuality construct as measured by the Asexuality Identification Scale (Yule et al., 2017), individual perspectives on sexuality, sexual behavior and relationships, concerns about commitment and sexual performance in a relationship, and attachment style. Results showed that aromantic asexual individuals identified more with asexuality, reported a more avoidant attachment style, and were more concerned with relationship commitment. In contrast, romantic asexual individuals reported less sex aversion, more sexual experiences (both past and current), and more sexual partners in the past. These individuals also engaged in romantic relationships more frequently in the past, had a stronger desire to engage in a romantic relationship in future (either with or without sexual intimacy), and were more concerned with sexual performance. Overall, our findings contribute to the literature by highlighting the need to consider romantic orientation when examining asexuality and its interpersonal outcomes.
