Two men in an asexual homoromantic relationship open up about their love

Steve Winter and his husband-to-be Thom Gray have opened up about their three-year relationship as asexual, homoromatic men.

The couple, who will be getting married later this month, say that people are surprised when they meet them and find they’re just like any other couple.

Steve didn’t find out what asexuality was until five years ago, when he came across the term on someone’s Gaydar profile.

The man in question, Stephen Lloyd, taught Steve all about asexuality and pointed him to resources such as AVEN (The Asexuality Visibility and Education Network).

Lack of information about asexuality means there are lots of misconceptions about it. For one, asexuality is not the same as celibacy.

Steve said: “Celibacy is a choice. Asexuality, like being gay, straight, bi, trans, etc., is how you are wired. Quite simply, you are born this way!”

The couple have a live podcast on YouTube every Sunday evening called “Pieces of Ace” that they started in 2015.

Steve and Thom

He hoped their podcast will spread the message to asexual people that they’re not alone. “2017 is the best year yet in terms of asexuality, as the community is connected across the globe like never before.

“And the great thing is, it’s only going to get better. We hope by showing people that two asexuals can be married without having sex that people can see that there is hope for them too.”

About AVEN

The Asexual Visibility and Education Network (AVEN) was founded in 2001 with two distinct goals: creating public acceptance and discussion of asexuality and facilitating the growth of an asexual community. Since that time we have grown to host the world’s largest asexual community, serving as an informational resource for people who are asexual and questioning, their friends and families, academic researchers and the press. AVEN members throughout the world regularly engage in visibility projects, included but not limited to distributing informational pamphlets, leading workshops, arranging local meetups and speaking to interested press. The AVEN community centers around the web forum, which provides a safe space for asexual and questioning people and their partners, friends and families to discuss their experiences.
