The IAM advocates for ending sexual relations throughout the world. It was Yuri Nesterenko who established the first Antisexual Society in Russia (1995) Since then, he has taken a leading role in the IAM. The main venue of the society is the "Anti-sexual Stronghold" website created by Nesterenko. The group accepts the minimum amount of sexual activity n Nesterenko is an atheist an... > **[Antisexualism | Terminology](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Antisexualism#Terminology)** > > Other terms whose meanings overlap or are synonymous or interchangeable with antisexualism include sex-negativism, sex-negative movement, sex-negativity, antisexuality, demonization of sex or as an adjective, anti-sex or sex-negative. In a broader scope, it may refer to a general opposition to sexuality, especially tending to reduce or eliminate the sex drive or sexual activity or a prudish and coitophobic force in society that suppresses sexual freedom and disseminate Not celibacy, anti sexuality. It’s a real thing. More people telling others what they should do with their bodies. I don’t know how humanity got so hung up about sex: repression, transcending it, free love, etc. It just seems like at some point on the road we developed a toxic relationship to it either worshiping it or demonizing it. Why can’t people just BE and leave it at that. If you love it then great and if not (for whatever reason as long as you don’t preach it) then great. Making it out to be such a big deal leads to junk like this. ---

I’m not sure why this is surprising. I don’t know numbers of how large this movement is, but I’d be willing to bet that it is a significantly small % of society. There are plenty of fringe groups that support lots of weird ideas. Don’t get hung up on it. ---

He can just fuck right off\*, then. Honestly. Do we really have to listen to every single example of fucknuttian bullshit, just in case _this_ one might have a point? \*I mean, I guess we should tell him to _un_fuck off or something. ---

> [@Chronos](#): > > Ever hear of the [Shakers](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shakers)? Well, maybe not: For some reason, they all died out. Died out or not, it makes perfect sense that one cannot be _born_ a Shaker: one has to join up sua sponte. This is true for nany religious orders and communities, not only Shakers. If Shaker communities die out, it is because of a dearth of people interested in becoming novices. ---
