.......ADVERTISEMENT.......
You know, before I found this site, I thought there was something
really wrong with me. People told me I was probably asexual because guys don't
ask me out because I'm not pretty. I even when to see a psychologist who
suggested that I had problems with intimancy. I am so glad, however, to find
that I am not alone and that there are several people out there who really want
to satisfy themselves instead of worrying about men and how to get
one. Kelly (kmaybach@agnesscott.edu) Atlanta,

Funny how I more or less surfed into this site...A few years ago,
while in the throes of menopause and infuriated by the ceaseless bickering over
the sensitive abortion issue (let's all be fair and "agree to disagree", okay?),
I was doing the spinster bit full speed, milking it for all it was worth.
Cripes, I had even adopted a Victorian-inspired style of dress. Sort of like a
sullen teenager who wants to wear black all the time. Time marches on. While
romantic involvements are still not a priority in my life (building a small
home-based business is), things can and do change. The high-collared blouses
have been replaced with casual sweatshirts and jeans. Today I'm increasingly
interested in sports news (GO PACKERS!!!), which I never paid much attention to
before. Unlike most of your followers, apparently, I consider myself pretty much
"blue collar", and didn't attend college. My favorite pastime is exploring this
great state of Wisconsin. Whether or not I ever marry will be for my own reasons
and no one else's. Shelley (susn53@hotmail.com) Ripon, WI - Friday,

don't you just love that feeling, where you think you're totally
alone or crazy, and then you find that there are *some* people who are also like
you... meaning, you know..you actually AREN'T a freak or anything. well i'm 20
years old, i seriously am not into sex w/ other people. people hit on me, and
i'm just like...not interested. for a period of time i went through this
bisexual stage, where i was like.. maybe i'm really into girls. i have crushes
on both sexes but the whole aspect of SEX itself does nothing for me. i like
closeness though. i mean, maybe i have some kind of weird medical disorder,
because *everyone* likes sex, right? well not really. i don't!! i wish i did, i
guess, because everyone thinks i'm prude or just really hard to get. i've been
single for soo long, people wonder, why is she single? well.. how could i get
involved in a relationship, and then tell the other person i don't want to have
sex? i'm so much more interested on focusing on every other aspect of life
besides sex, and am very independent. i suppose this plays into it as well. so
am i "asexual" or just haven't met the right person? anyways, i will quit my
ramblings. but I'd LOVE to get e-mail from anybody else who 'feels the same way'
- really. so thanks for listening! -Amy Amy (trinity@fireman.net) Minnesota USA -

I KNEW I WASN'T THE ONLY ONE IN THE WORLD WHO WILLINGLY CHOSE TO
REMAIN SINGLE; TO AVOID THE TRAP OF TAKING THE EASY PATH IN LIFE (I.E.
CONFORMING TO SOCIETAL NORMS). HOWEVER, I DID NOT THINK THAT WHEN I TYPED IN THE
WORD "SPINSTER", I WOULD RUN ACROSS AN ACTUAL WEBSITE PROFESSING THE SAME VIEWS
I'VE HELD FOR QUITE SOME TIME; ESPECIALLY THE ARTICLES ON ASEXUALITY. I REALLY
THOUGHT THAT I HAD BEEN BORN WITH A CHEMICAL IMBALANCE. WELL, I'M QUITE PLEASED
THERE IS AN OUTLET FOR US OLD MAIDS; BECAUSE WHEN YOU ARE SCATTERED THROUGHOUT

I'M NOT A FREAK AFTER ALL!! IS IS POSSIBLE TO BE AN ASEXUAL LESBIAN OR IS THAT A

Aloha! I am a 31 year old librarian proud to be a spinster! Lots of
people (including my mom) cringe at this word but I think we need to claim it as
our own positive term (like 'gay' or 'queer' for homosexuals). I have been in
several very ephemeral long-distance relationships interspersed with one-night
stands, looking for that 'Mr. Right', while always having the feeling that maybe
marriage wasn't what I wanted. A church wedding and a Venice honeymoon, yes, but
not the life of diapers, cooking, wet spots on the bed and compromise which the
white lace and orange blossoms so cleverly conceal. Well, one year after the
break up of my last LDR I have decided that I am done with crash dieting, hatred
of other women as 'competition', pregnancy scares and sharing the bed with some
snoring man and decided to embrace the simplicity of a sex-free(or at least
marriage and boyfriend free) life. Perhaps a once-a-year Greek or Italian
vacation fling might be fun(practicing safer sex of course) knowing that it
isn't permanent and I will come home to my life of single bliss. I have heard of
spinsters and widows who have this type of sporadic sex life and are very happy
with it. All I know is celibacy is very pleasant but I don't know if I'm willing
to give up sex forever... Christine (cmwilson@hawaii.edu) Honolulu, HI 96826

This is a wonderful site... many people say that at age 17 I'm far
too young to be able to say that I don't want a relationship, but after being in
a few very serious relationships, I've decided that at least now, it's
definitely not what I want. There's a great pressure from society - many people
have called me a lesbian. I'm working really hard towards a career, and my work
is what I love. I don't want to get married and have kids! I know I'm going on
and on, but it's so great to know that I'm not alone. Thank you ever so much.

I am 18 and I never knew what asexuality was, but I knew I was
different. You have no idea how hard it is to be a teenager and have absolutely
no desire for sex, especially with the amount of pressure there is today. This
sight and all the other responses has helped me realize that I am lucky to find
out what I am now intsead of becoming stuck in an ill-fated relationship. I am

Greetings! Although I'm not a woman, I was glad to find your site.
I'm a member of Russian antisexual group, and we are looking for alies and
co-thinkers in the world. We invite you to visit our site Antisexual Stronghold
(http://antisex.cjb.net - there are Russian and English versions); we are
especially interested in those who want to join Iternational Antisexual Movement
(IAM), which is being created now. We will be glad if you set a link to us on
your site, too. There is a point which I cannot agree in your position - if I
got it right, some of you want not to have sex, but be sexual attractive. I
don't think that it's honest position. If you leave your door open, don't be
surprised if thiefs come in. Certainly you don't have to take special efforts to
be unattractive; but using the opposite, provoking strategy isn't good and
clever enough, too. Yuri Nesterenko (comte@complife.net) Moscow, Russia -

Hi, I'm so relieved to find this site b/c I didn't even know that
asexuality existed until recently. I always thought there was something wrong
with me or I was gay and didn't know it yet. But, now I'm soooo happy because I
know that being alone isn't shutting people out, being abnormal or whatever. I'm
16 and people my age can't understand how I feel. They say that I'll change, or
it's unhealthy not to be in a relationship, or that I'm just ashamed of my body.
But, I'm having fun, I have loving friends, good grades, and I'v even started on
my career: fashion designing. Sorry I shared my life story with you but I had
to!! REMEMBER: P.L.U.R (peace,love,unity,respect) Blair

This is terrific! I come from a family of "wild Irish roses", married
and divorced several times (and this was in the early part of this century!) My
mother started nagging me about having a boyfriend from when I was about 12
years old. I did marry at 31, divorced after eight years and plan to stay
unmarried, as it is absolutely wonderful to come home to peace and quiet - and
my cat. I don't want to date or otherwise put myself on the "meat market", the
idea of it is disgusting to me. Well that's all for now! Glad to have found this

I'm a budding leather spinster with my own home and no marriage or
relationship in sight. I've always wanted a good relationship but have never
been happy in one. So maybe it's time to realize that relationships don't make
me happy (rather than listening to the "you just haven't found the right guy
yet" gospel!) Am looking for a supportive community of women (and like-minded
men) who have little or no desire to change their single status. Amy Brown (brownae@tiac.net) Lynn, MA USA - Friday,

I can't believe I found a website relating to Asexuality! It wasn't
too long ago I was searching for information on being asexual and only came up
with plants and animal reproduction. I've always considered myself asexual and
am VERY happy! I did the marriage thing and had three beautiful children; but as
soon as my divorce was final, I seized the opportunity to spread my wings and
live MY life. I have NO desire to date or be intimate sexually, and that's
okay!! I just wish everyone could understand that. Wow! What a relief to have
stumbled upon this web site. My page is located at

I can't begin to tell you what a great weight has been lifted from my
shoulders. I typed in the word "asexual", and after going through 20 sites on
asexual PLANT reproduction, I finally landed at this site. I thought I was all
alone in this. But then I read the comments in the guestbook and realized that
there were people who had similar feelings/experiences. I particularly related
to Breeze's comments. I have felt exactly what you described. And it is
wonderful to know that someone else knows what it's like to be different from
the mainstream image portrayed by society. Kiwi MA -

I've only recently discovered this site after looking for more info.
on asexuality, which I have come to the conclusion that this is a region I fall
into. I have been and still am in a wonderful relationship where I get the
"intimacy and companionship" I need and my partner does also, but she also has
sexual relationships outside of ours. Can anyone else relate to how this works?
I does.......our friends think we're very strange. I'm very confident and self
assured and really do like myself the way I am, and I want to thank the creators
of this site for having enough passion to open up a pathway for communication

Thanks for this great site. For a while I've always thought I must be
a homosexual since I have no interest in the opposite sex. Lately I realised my
sexual fantasies are not as strong and a few encounters with gays somehow set me
apart from them as well. It dawned on me perhaps it is a craving for intimacy
anyone is capable of, and not necessarily of a sexual nature. Vincent (ice_joker@hotmail.com) - Sunday,

Well, it took forever, but I finally found a group that actually
advocates that happiness can be found without 'settling down' and having
children- not that there is anything wrong with that. However, for me, I've been
dreading the fact that I thought it was only natural for me to have a sexual
attraction to either men or women and was not looking forward to being sexually
intimate with either. The mere idea never really turned me on and it seemed more
of a burden than the blessing that my friends told me it's supposed to be.
Finding this Leather Spinster Group has made me look at my life as much more
optimistic. I am glad that there are people out there that label people like me
as something not negative or unnatural. I have always felt that the most natural
path for me would be an asexual life, but what was I supposed to think when
every image I have seen for my past 22 years has been oriented around finding a
mate, or love, or romance!? It's as if society says you aren't worth anything if
you don't have someone who loves you sexually and intimately! Thank you very
much for keeping this group going. Breeze Breeze Harper (amie.harper.98@alum.dartmouth.org) Lebanon,

Thank you for this site! I would like to share this with my uncle,
who's bagging me to marry again, so I won't live a "lonely life" by myself (he
lost his wife after 40 years of marriage and missing her terribely...). I'm
trying to tell him, that I am very content to live alone; after being married,
divorced and through with obsessive relationships with men that left me
constantly hurt and frustrated, I am very happy to reach this point in my life,
where I am enjoying my own company, have my friends around when I feel like
having stimulating conversations and share a dinner, or anything else...I am now
in love with Life and all the beauty it has to offer; I live by the beach in a
beautiful place, filled with art, books, music; I enjoy the sunrise and the
sunset, walks on the beach and the Boardwalk, chats with interesting people at
the local cafe...I have no desire to have sexual contact with anyone; it takes a
whole lot more, than just good looks to "turn me on". I am a very sensual and
sexy looking woman, but I am no longer pre-occupied with longing for some man to
keep me satisfied...I feel that I have reached the perfect balance of the male
and female within me, so there is no need for another...I am sorry for people,
who put up with highly unsatisfying, often abusive, co-dependent relationships,
just so they won't be "alone"... Miriam More (mvmore@gte.net) Venice, California USA -

Great site. I still don't know what the leather stands for; we don't
have this expression in French. We call women alone "old maid", and it's
allright with me. I never minded to be called the "old maid" by my parents even
when I was young because it meant that I was serious, and I liked that.
Bookswritten by women have always been my best friends because I liked their
minds. Some of them, I posted in the Goddess Gardens:

Although I don't identify as asexual I don't see the importance of
having a committed relationship or any relationship (other than platonic) for
that fact. Now as was stated on one of this site's webpages, this lifestyle
could be permanent or temporary. Can't say if it's temporary for me, but I don't
worry about it, my main focus is to be happy and if that means being alone then
so be it! I've discovered these last few years that there are two reasons why a
woman may identify as a leather spinster, one being she's tired of relationships
inwhich she's putting someone else before herself, or she don't desire any
intimacy (sex). If more women came "out" and stopped finding shame in being
leather spinsters they could be positive rolemodels for future generations of
women who would see leather spinsterhood as another viable and healthy lifestyle
option for them. Rae (rae2525@mailexcite.com) Missouri

I am a 20 year old woman and I think I am asexual. I am glad to hear
that there are so many others in this situation and that I am not alone. I feel
like the odd one out when I am out with friends as they are always talking about
their boyfriends and girlfriends. I also have no interest in fashion or looking
trendy. Can anyone tell me if this is characteristic of asexuality or if I
really am strange? I think this page is a great inspiration to asexuals and
could give them courage to talk about what they are. "Sandie" (9649864@sms.ed.ac.uk) Edinburgh,

I am a 20 year old woman and I think I am asexual although I am not
quite sure. I feel as if I don't fit in anywhere I go as everyone is always
talking about their boyfriends and girlfriends and I can't understand why
everyone feels they have to be in a relationship. I am afraid to tell my parents
as I don't think they would understand. I would love to know if there are any
other young people out there in my situation. "Sandie" (9649864@sms.ed.ac.uk) Edinburgh,

Wow there are other people like me? I never understood romance
although I have moved cross country for close friends. Nobody can understand how
I could like them that much and still not want to marry or sleep with them, so
usually they think I'm lying. I don't know fer sure if I'm asexual, but if I am
I'm an asexual guy so don't assume only women are this way. Interesting web

Thanks for the great site? What inspired me to type "Spinster" in the
search field this morning? Was married, happily divorced for 13 yrs. Tried
relationship and dating, just can't find anyone I like as well as myself! What
an awful thing to say, huh. Sure I talk to myself-- the conversation is usually
interesting and I hardly ever argue--- and when I do I'm always right. What I
want is a newsletter, magazine, catalog, snail mail pen friend organization for
Leather Spinsters. I have belonged to 2 of the latter-- NOT lonely hearts orgs,
just friendship via mail-- and crochet exchange organizations. But about the
first thing your hear from a new friend and continue to hear about is Hubby and
the Kids, the the exclusion of just about anything else. Anything in the works
for an ongoing forum for those of us who only have limited computer access at
work? Love your site! margaret heuman (tutsifrutsi@juno.com) tucson, az usa -

I can relate. I am still married (for the 3rd time) but would much
prefer the solitude and peace of a single life. I feel like nothing more than a
housekeeper and sexual pleasure doll for my husband. (There will be a day soon
where I will not be so anymore.) I would like to know if you publish any other
books. My mother wants to write a book but needs to find someone who could
publish it. Candace J. Lewin (tryagain@slic.com) Potsdam, NY US -

interesting site, surely many women also here would agree. My
personal choice is living alone with the kids, since 7 years - and yes, people
are asking about it... I'll recommend your site. But asexual? no - not yet.
Balance is delicate though, being sexual and not wanting to be dependent. Any
advice? margarita (wynja@kurir.net) Stockholm, Sweden -

I don't beleive Marriage is not for everyone, it's just not for me,
been there, done that. If I have to be someone's maid and housekeeper, then I
want a salary like every other worker gets. It's obvious why so many divorced
men remarry. They want a free housekeeper, cook, bed partner. Not for me, no
siree. Catmom Catmom44 (mdavi74529@aol.com) Cahokia, IL US -

Absolutely love this site. It's great to have this issue addressed in
a serious & respectful manner for a change rather than the sarcastic remarks
I am used to hearing for my lifestyle choice. As for marriage, relationships
& sex - been there, done that & I'll pass, thank you very much! I enjoy
my solitude & have found an inner peace and happiness which I never
experienced while in a relationship. I'm most happy with my asexual lifestyle.

What a great site!! So many have a hard understanding my lifestyle.

"relationship." Thanks for recognizing us!! Bernadette T.

After living through the Experiment Underground here in Toronto I'm
ready and willing to embrace my asexuality and I don't care who knows. This is
my first time online so I was overwhelmed when I saw some mentionings on leather
spinsterhood. Hey when I get back home I'll be visiting this website to stay in
touch with my leather spinsterness. A SHOUT OUT TO REBA MY FELLOW AMERICAN

I know I shouldn't be shy to admit to being a asexual woman but I am,
maybe I'll grow out of it when I'm use to speaking openly about it. I'm glad
also that this site is here, finally a place designated just for
us,HOORAY!!!! yolanda philadelphia, pa usa - Thursday,

Hey I thought I was alone in feeling that sex and relationships had
no place in my life, thanx for the roundabout. (Being that it's a leather
spinster site I know you know what roundabout means). pie
