"Romantic love still exists, it's just that there's no lust involved;", "Hugs and kisses may still exist, but there's no sexual desire" - These are impossible and meangless combinations. Well, i recommend you to read Le Guin "Left hand of darkness", this is not exactly what you describe, but 90% of all time these hermaphrodites there are in the asexual 'somer' state. | |

| Nov 11, 2021 at 14:05 | comment | added | PcMan | "for children who haven't yet learned where babies come from, this is exactly the world they think they're living in" is absolute nonsense. Ignorance does not delete the child's hormones. It does not delete the pleasurable neural feedback. It just makes it a bit more puzzling. | |

For a woman, making babies is very hard work, dangerous, and massively shortens her average life expectancy, primarily due to the many, many complications that can occur during pregnancy and childbirth. For men, sex with no reward will just be a lot of hot, sweaty work with very little benefit. Rather go to the gym, they have more convenient machines for the exercise. And for both genders, having a child is a massive financial and emotional investment. They have to, literally, change their lifestyle completely. Frankly, not worth the effort. | |

| Nov 11, 2021 at 13:04 | comment | added | Pelinore | @John "also clothing has little to do with sex" various studies that have shown that girls & women when at peak fertility point of their cycle do tend on average to subconsciously choose to wear clothes that display more skin would seem to contradict you a little there, just a little, if only in some ways :) | |
| Nov 11, 2021 at 12:50 | comment | added | John | There is no need to hide where babies come from NOW, don't confuse the religious views of one particular culture with biology. also clothing has little to do with sex, clothing exists because temperatures changes and human skin is fairly fragile. | |
| Nov 11, 2021 at 12:44 | comment | added | Pelinore | I guarantee you that in any real world scenario your species (be it humanity or some other) will go extinct unless it doesn't rely on sexual reproduction to procreate, sexual desire is a drive that's there for a reason, sure they could 'decide' to do this thing they've no interest in to keep the species going but without those instincts (the drives, desires & pleasure) that cause sexual desire they're extremely unlikely to do it enough & over time the population will drop, the only way this works is if they reproduce asexually. | |
