Content for article:

Asexuality is about the lack or low desire of sexual attraction one has to someone else. "Approximately 1 in 100 people are asexual". There are many arguments over the validity of asexuality as a sexual orientation. Many researchers and people of an asexual identity believe that the lack of sexual attraction is valid enough to be categorized as a sexual orientation. "Being attracted to "no one" is valid as a sexual orientation. Researchers explain that for asexual people, sexual orientation is not a behavior and is not categorized by whom one has sex with."

"Asexuality is about attraction, not about willingness to engage in sexual behavior." "A major goal of the asexual community is for asexuality to be seen as part of the 'normal variation' that exists in human sexuality rather than a disorder to be cured."

Demisexual and A-fluid are two more terms that people who identify as asexual can use.

"Demisexuals experience sexual attraction as a consequence of romantic attraction but not independently of it. When they are emotionally connected to a person sexual attraction may ensue but only directed toward that person".

I've found a new study/research that had not been previously cited in the aseuxality article. Asexuality: Classification and Characterization by Nicole Prause and Cynthia A. Graham might be a good place to look into some studies that have not been mentioned before.

From the article: "Sexual Desire Inventory. The SDI was used to measure trait levels of sexual desire."

Do more studies use SDI? or SIS/SES: "Sexual Inhibition and Sexual Excitation Scales."

Asexuality article:

Look over sources to find outdated ones. Update any research that is too old for the article. Add to mental health research about the topic that is not already on the article. Add information on community: events, flags, new websites, new groups, etc.

Some sources on this article might be considered out of date. I want to find some new research on asexuality, especially in the mental health section. I will be looking at new studies and seeing if there is new information or updated information. Also I'd like to improve the community page with any new events, organizations, etc. that have been started recently. I want to look into a journal by Robert R. Warner to see if there is any left out information that may help improve the article.Two sites I also want to look into are Asexualgroups.com and Asexualitic.com. These websites help people connect the more asexual people within their hometowns and around the world.


 * REVIEW* I think you have a good idea of what your article will become. I would add more points and sub-points on what you will be writing about.  I think its a great idea to try and find recent sources to contribute to this edited article. ~Alex Albaeck~
 * REVIEW* Yes, i also agree with Alex, I think you should add a little more detail about the topic involving Asexuality. Maybe some studies that prove your point, or like Alex said some recent sources. That is what I tried to do for my article and it made it easier to add more information to my article.
