Illustration for the quiz: Am I Asexual?

Asexual means feeling little or no sexual attraction to anyone. Asexual people can still feel romantic attraction, want relationships and feel close to people[1]. Attraction is different for everyone, and nothing about how you feel is wrong[1]. Answer honestly and see where your answers sit. Nothing you pick is saved.

    You might be asexual!

    Your answers suggest you feel little or no sexual attraction, which is what asexual means[1]. Many asexual people still have crushes, relationships and lots of affection. If you also feel little or no romantic attraction, the word aromantic might fit too[1]. Only you can decide which words fit, if any.

  • 24 to 35 points

    You might be demisexual or on the ace spectrum!

    Your answers suggest sexual attraction is rare for you, or only shows up after a close emotional bond. Some people describe that as demisexual[1]. Others use no label at all, and that's fine. It's normal for how you describe yourself to change[1].

  • 13 to 23 points

    You're still figuring it out, and that's okay!

    Your answers are a mix. Attraction can change over time, and it can take a while to work out how you feel[1]. There's no rush. Talking to someone you trust, or an LGBT+ youth group, can help[2].

  • 0 to 12 points

    You're probably not asexual!

    Your answers suggest you feel sexual attraction fairly often. That's normal too, and so is changing over time[1]. Want to explore who you're attracted to? Try our Am I Gay? quiz.
