Hello to whoever is reading this! Today we are going to be talking about something a bit different; something that you might have not even heard about before. And that is Asexuality. Maybe you are reading this on my blog or facebook, or perhaps you are just curious. Maybe you are wondering if you are asexual yourself. Whatever the reason you might be reading this, my reason for writing this is to educate.   If you aren’t aware, I am asexual, and that is something I have only recently figured out, and I’m even still often confused about it.

Unfortunately I don't have the names of these people as I found most of them through searching for character inspiration on Google and Pinterest, but I hope you enjoy them anyway!
