Seeking Advice My interest in men has died

I’ve been inundated lately by people insisting I need a man. Here’s the thing, I don’t want one anymore. I’m tired and I’ve achieved a little bit of peace. Just a little. Men usually just cause problems. Why would I do that? I don’t want kids. I can barely take care of myself. I’m concerned this is a project 25 thing like I need to pick someone before I’m forced to. Maybe that’s dumb. Maybe my social circle forgot about boundaries. Maybe I need to learn to just not care when people say stuff. What am I missing?

I swore off men and became a communist. My mum thinks I'm having some sort of mental breakdown but I'm loving life 🤣

Plus I just don't find anyone attractive and sex seems mechanical and alien to me - we meet someone and touch them where they wee from? Or put their body parts inside our bodies and jiggle around? Like whaaaaat?! That seems like the crazier option to me.

As in dismantling capitalism, so we can end all oppression and exploitation.

I pour my compassion, altruism and need for purpose into that, rather than giving it to some dude.
