Resumen del Editor
What if you weren't sexually attracted to anyone?
A growing number of people are identifying as asexual. They aren't sexually attracted to anyone, and they consider it a sexual orientation - like gay, straight, or bisexual.
Asexuality is the invisible orientation. Most people believe that "everyone" wants sex, that "everyone" understands what it means to be attracted to other people, and that "everyone" wants to date and mate. But that's where asexual people are left out - they don't find other people sexually attractive, and if and when they say so, they are very rarely treated as though that's okay.
When an asexual person comes out, alarming reactions regularly follow; loved ones fear that an asexual person is sick, or psychologically warped, or suffering from abuse. Critics confront asexual people with accusations of following a fad, hiding homosexuality, or making excuses for romantic failures. And all of this contributes to a discouraging master narrative: there is no such thing as "asexual". Being an asexual person is a lie or an illness, and it needs to be fixed.
In The Invisible Orientation, Julie Sondra Decker outlines what asexuality is, counters misconceptions, provides resources, and puts asexual people's experiences in context as they move through a very sexualized world. It includes information for asexual people to help understand their orientation and what it means for their relationships, as well as tips and facts for those who want to understand their asexual friends and loved ones.

Contemporary relationships are in a state of rapid evolution. These changes can and should empower people with the opportunity to develop partnerships based on their own sexualities, understandings, and agreements. This makes it possible to create what Kenneth Haslam, founder of the Kinsey Institute's Polyamory Archive, has called designer relationships. The possibilities are limitless, and thinking about a partnership as something people can craft allows for flexibility and change.

For the last 20 years, John Corvino - widely known as the author of the weekly column "The Gay Moralist" - has traversed the country responding to moral and religious arguments against same-sex relationships. In this timely audiobook, he shares that experience - addressing the standard objections to homosexuality and offering insight into the culture wars more generally. Is homosexuality unnatural? Does the Bible condemn it? Are people born gay (and should it matter either way)? Corvino approaches such questions with precision, sensitivity, and good humor.

What exactly is sexual attraction and what is it like to go through life not experiencing it? What does asexuality reveal about gender roles, about romance and consent, and the pressures of society? This accessible examination of asexuality shows that the issues that aces face - confusion around sexual activity, the intersection of sexuality and identity, navigating different needs in relationships - are the same conflicts that nearly all of us will experience.

Historia
The notion that everyone wants sex—and that we all have to have it—is false. It’s intertwined with our ideas about capitalism, race, gender, and queerness. And it impacts the most marginalized among us. For asexual folks, it means that ace and A-spec identity is often defined by a queerness that’s not queer enough, seen through a lens of perceived lack: lack of pleasure, connection, joy, maturity, and even humanity. In this exploration of what it means to be Black and asexual in America today, Sherronda J. Brown offers new perspectives on asexuality.

Historia
What exactly is sexual attraction and what is it like to go through life not experiencing it? What does asexuality reveal about gender roles, about romance and consent, and the pressures of society? This accessible examination of asexuality shows that the issues that aces face - confusion around sexual activity, the intersection of sexuality and identity, navigating different needs in relationships - are the same conflicts that nearly all of us will experience.

Historia
The notion that everyone wants sex—and that we all have to have it—is false. It’s intertwined with our ideas about capitalism, race, gender, and queerness. And it impacts the most marginalized among us. For asexual folks, it means that ace and A-spec identity is often defined by a queerness that’s not queer enough, seen through a lens of perceived lack: lack of pleasure, connection, joy, maturity, and even humanity. In this exploration of what it means to be Black and asexual in America today, Sherronda J. Brown offers new perspectives on asexuality.

Historia
Despite all the welcome changes that have happened in our culture and laws over the past few decades in regards to sexuality, the subject remains one of the most influential but least understood aspects of our lives. For psychologist and bestselling author Julia Shaw, this is both professional and personal—Shaw studies the science of sexuality and she herself is proudly and vocally bisexual. Despite statistics that show bisexuality is more common than homosexuality, bisexuality is often invisible.

Why do we assume romantic relationships are more important than friendships? What do we lose when we expect a spouse to meet all our needs? And what can we learn about commitment, love, and family from people who put deep friendship at the center of their lives? In The Other Significant Others, NPR's Rhaina Cohen invites us into the lives of people who have defied convention by choosing a friend as a life partner—these are friends who are home co-owners, co-parents or each other’s caregivers.

How do we make and keep friends in an era of distraction, burnout, and chaos, especially in a society that often prizes romantic love at the expense of other relationships? In Platonic, Dr. Marisa G. Franco unpacks the latest, often counterintuitive findings about the bonds between us—for example, why your friends aren’t texting you back (it’s not because they hate you!), and the myth of “friendships happening organically” (making friends, like cultivating any relationship, requires effort!).

Historia
For much of the 20th and 21st centuries, women’s sexuality was an uncharted territory in science, studied far less frequently - and far less seriously - than its male counterpart. That is, until Emily Nagoski’s Come As You Are, which used groundbreaking science and research to prove that the most important factor in creating and sustaining a sex life filled with confidence and joy is not what the parts are or how they’re organized but how you feel about them.

Good informative writing, not the best narrator
Great writing about asexuality and what that means, but the last half hour or so is just a ton of websites and things read mechanically. I understand they're resources which can and should be spread, I just don't know why they couldn't have made an accompanying PDF for those.
Other than that, I really loved this, and will likely be sending it to friends and family if/when I come out.

Much needed book on asexuality
Asexuality is often dismissed, and this book attempts to bring the facts and show that asexual people to exist, that there is nothing wrong with them, and that their feelings and lives are valid.
The book seems to lie somewhere between lists of facts and a series of personal essays. I think it is a good first start in an area that seriously needs more attention and information.
It's a bit dry at times, but again, it is meant to be informative, not to be a riveting story.
Pick this up if you are asexual, or if you are curious or questioning. It is affirming and positive, and I do recommend it.

A massive overload of information
If you're looking for a very large amount of overarching information about what it is to be an ace and everything tangental to it, this is the book for you. I don't mean that in a bad way, however it is a lot. This is a good book if you genuinely are looking for more information than you probably want to know, but it's written out in a clinical dry kind of way. I'm ace, so reading this book had a lot of "yep, that's right" moments and a lot of "can I just skip this part because it's so boring. I already know all of this" parts. If you're looking for a book to suggest to a friend or a parent then I recommend something a bit more layman or perhaps something with a bit more anecdotal stories - something a bit more that hits at the heart strings or with a better perspective that can help non-aces relate. This book seems to be geared a lot towards aces and their partners, and how aces and their partners deal with relationships, so it's probably better if this is recommended to the partner of an ace that is trying to gather more information. All in all, this isn't a bad book, however it wouldn't be the first one I'd recommend to someone if I was trying to get them to understand what being an ace is, especially someone from the old generations (there are a lot of politically correct words in this book that might trigger them).

Great Coverage of a Misunderstood Orientation
This book was a thorough, but not inaccessible, examination of the asexual spectrum of orientations, points of intersectionality, needs, resources, and more. I would highly recommend this book to gain a better understanding of the spectrum and how not to cause harm to someone who identifies as ace. I gave a copy of this to my therapist who does a lot of work in the LGBTQIA+ community.

Very informative
A very informative primer for the lay person as well as for those curious about asexuality. The author does a great job dissecting and dispelling the various myths, misunderstanding, and stigma around this little recognized orientation. While repetution can help drill concepts into the skeptics and the deniers, it gets tad tedious at times to the point I could finish the sentences for the author. Still, it gets a rec from me as a book that achieves what it sets out to do.

Pronunciation grates on my nerves
I couldnt finish this book after hearing the narrators pronunciation of mature. I cannot take seriously someone who says ma-tyor and not ma-choor. Might be a silly reason to stop a book...but this has grated on my ears for years.

So much to learn. This is a great start
Like many people I've never thought much about Asexuality. I knew it existed, but it didn't concern me personally so I had no reason to delve into the subject. As I started this book I learned that I knew less than I imagined. It never occurred to me it was a sexual orientation. I had no idea about all the variations of Asexuality. If someone told me they were Ace I wouldn't even know what that was.
This book explains so much, and yet I feel that there's even more to learn. She has so many resources listed at the end that anyone could delve deeper if they wished.
I was looking for a book with a protagonist on the Ace Spectrum, but I struggled to choose a book because I didn't know anything. The author is Ace so I'm using this book. It's well written, but a little dry and repetitive. A solid 4 stars for me.

This book needed to exist!
What did you learn from The Invisible Orientation that you would use in your daily life?
It made me realize how much is left unseen by us just because we persistently reflect our own experience on others and neglect to even acknowledge that alternatives are not impossible and this from simple phrases regarded by society to be inexorably true such as "We're human, we all have (sexual) needs" to "We all need (romantic) love to be happy". You have found an ally in me.
Any additional comments?
The thing I'm grateful the most is that because of this book I now understand my peers and myself a little better.
