    Would it be okay to add a term to asexuality which I coined? This is it:

    • Phobosexuality: An aversion, discomfort, or hatred towards the topic, idea, cultural influence, or other aspects of sexuality

    @Otvm: a quick Google search tells me that phobosexuals are "People excited by the idea of having dark secrets, who enjoy being frightened by their desire" (http://www.hypocritereader.com/2/gross-afterthoughts). Isn't your definition the same as the one for repulsed asexual? Anyway, I think it's better to avoid including coined words if there is no evidence for its use (even if it's just in a tumblr blog). --NeoMahler (talk) 12:56, 21 December 2017 (UTC)
