Abstract:
The study presents the history of asexuality a sequence of epochs conditioned by the control, regulation of non-normative practices and gender order. The author examines asexuality in the context of pathologization and normalization, which resemble the history of homo- and bisexuality. The result of the pathologization of asexuality was the construction of identity as a basis that deprives doctors of the right to pathologize it.

Abstract:
Some literature on asexuality has claimed that it is inherently radical and contains the potential for resistance. Unfortunately, this literature has tended to be unempirical, has imagined asexuality as a disembodied entity, and has marginalised the multiple identities held by asexual people. This article, inspired by Plummer’s critical humanist approach, seeks to explore how individuals understand their asexuality to encourage forms of political action in the areas of identity, activism, online spaces, and LGBT politics. What we found was a plurality of experiences and attitudes with most adopting a pragmatic position in response to their social situation which saw large-scale political action as irrelevant. We conclude by reflecting on what these results mean for those who see asexuality as potentially radical.

AbstractThis article discusses marginalisation in internet forums and blogging platforms using the example of asexuality blogs and discussion threads. While large corpora of both English and German, such as COCA and DeReKo, contain hardly any mention of asexuality and these few instances of asexuality and related expressions typically refer to plant biology, online communities do discuss aspects of life as an asexual person and their experiences of marginalization even within the LGBTQ community. Definitions of asexuality, including its delineation from other identities, and how asexual people articulate conflicts and other issues on these online platforms are discussed in detail. Particular attention is paid to how this particular group is constructed by others, how they construct themselves as not being part of the mainstream, and the role (self-)marginalisation plays in this context.

Abstract:
AbstractIn this article we consider the representation of the character Cole in Bioware’s Dragon Age: Inquisition (Electronic Arts, San Mateo, 2014), focusing upon how his asexuality is treated by other characters and its significance within his narrative arc. As well as contributing to the discussion of the representation of sexualities and gender within games, we seek to add to the ‘representational archive of asexuality’ (Cerankowski and Milks, Asexualities: Feminist and Queer Perspectives, Routledge, Abingdon, p 40, 2014), including games as media depicting and defining asexuality through fictional characterisation. We argue that it is particularly through humour that Cole is marked as being ambiguously set apart from the other characters in the game, and is infantilized as a ‘boy’ rather than a young man. Within a party of diverse genders, sexualities and indeed species, Cole’s absent interest in sex is treated as though it were something strange and in need of being overcome for Cole to become fully ‘human’. Beyond the scope of this game, this raises further questions for the representation of asexuality within media culture, and broader cultural discourses concerning whether asexuality is conceived of as being within the bounds of both masculinity and human normality.

Abstract:
La majorité des espèces parthénogétiques sont souvent perçues comme clonales. La clonalité est coûteuse à long terme, car elle peut entraîner l'accumulation de mutations délétères et une moins bonne capacité d’adaptation. Cependant, les cas d’espèces asexuées non clonales s'accumulent. L’asexualité non-clonale génère des conséquences génomiques et de fitness très différentes de la clonalité, et pourraient représenter une étape-clé dans la transition du sexe vers l’asexualité. De plus, l’asexualité peut être souvent non-obligatoire, avec des événements de sexe cryptiques. Ces évènements peuvent aussi façonner le génome et l'évolution des lignées asexuées. Dans cette thèse, j'ai étudié le mode de reproduction d'Artemia parthenogenetica, et son rôle dans la transition du sexe vers l'asexualité et l'évolution des lignées asexuées. En particulier, j'ai utilisé la capacité des mâles produits par voie asexuée (“mâles rares”) à se croiser avec des femelles sexuées et à transmettre l’asexualité à leurs descendants (asexualité contagieuse), pour générer expérimentalement de nouvelles lignées. J’ai montré que les Artemia asexués diploïdes ont un mode de reproduction non-clonal, dans lequel la recombinaison entraîne une perte d'hétérozygotie (LOH, pour “loss of heterozygosity”) chez les descendants. Le LOH est coûteux car il peut révéler des mutations délétères récessives. Peut-être en raison de la sélection causée par les conséquences délétères du LOH, le taux de recombinaison chez les Artemia asexués était plus faible que chez une espèce sexuée apparentée. J'ai également constaté que les hybrides sexués avaient une reproduction mixte sexuée et asexuée, et que les femelles asexuées issues de populations naturelles étaient capables de sexe rare. Cela signifie que des événements rares de sexe chez les Artemia asexués pourraient se produire entre un mâle rare et une femelle asexuée se reproduisant sexuellement. En effectuant une revue de la façon don t les modes de reproduction asexués sont identifiés dans la littérature, j'ai constaté que l'identification et la perception générale des asexués étaient biaisées en faveur de la clonalité, car une grande partie des espèces asexuées examinées étaient en fait non-clonales, et les preuves de la clonalité étaient souvent insuffisantes. En outre, la majorité des asexués non-clonaux avaient des modes de reproduction qui entraînaient de faibles taux de LOH. Cela suggère que les asexués non-clonaux évoluent souvent secondairement vers une reproduction plus clonale. Ainsi, même les espèces clonales pourraient ne pas avoir été clonales au cours de leur histoire évolutive. Enfin, avec une analyse génomique sur de nouvelles lignées générées par contagion, j'ai démontré que chez Artemia, les mâles rares sont produits asexuellement par recombinaison et donc LOH sur les chromosomes sexuels ZW. Nous savons que l'asexualité contagieuse, et peut-être des croisements entre lignées, ont eu lieu au cou rs de l'histoire évolutive d'A. parthenogenetica. L'asexualité contagieuse et/ou des événements sexuels chez les asexués constituent peut-être des opportunités pour que le(s) gène(s) contrôlant l'asexualité s'échappe(nt) des lignées en déclin vers de nouvelles lignées. Dans ce cas, l'asexualité contagieuse par le biais de mâles rares pourrait être la raison pour laquelle la recombinaison persiste chez les Artemia asexués. Chez de nombreuses espèces, l’identification de l’asexualité non clonale et des événements de sexe n'est toujours pas claire et nécessite une étude approfondie. Théoriquement, il y a un fort besoin de modèles prenant en compte les conséquences génomiques de l'asexualité non-clonale et non-obligatoire, et leur rôle dans la transition du sexe vers l'asexualité et la maintenance du sexe
The majority of parthenogenetic species are often thought to be clonal. Clonality is costly in the long term, as it can result in accumulation of deleterious mutations and lower adaptability. However, cases reporting non-clonal asexuals are accumulating. Non-clonal asexuality has very different genomic and fitness consequences compared to clonality, and may be a key intermediate step in the transition from sex to asexuality. Additionally, asexuality may be often non-obligate, with events of cryptic sex. These events may also shape the genome and evolution of asexual lineages. In this PhD, I investigated the reproductive mode of Artemia parthenogenetica and its role in the transition from sex to asexuality and the evolution of asexual lineages. Specifically, I used the capacity of asexually produced males (“rare males”) to cross with sexual females and transmit asexuality to their offspring (contagious asexuality), to experimentally generate new lineages. I showed that diploid asexual Artemia have a non-clonal reproductive mode, in which recombination results in loss of heterozygosity (LOH) in the offspring. LOH is costly as it can reveal recessive deleterious mutations. Perhaps due to selection caused by the deleterious consequences of LOH, the recombination rate in these asexuals was lower than in a closely related sexual species. I also found that sex-asex hybrids had a mixed sexual and asexual reproduction, and that asexual females from natural populations were capable of rare sex. This means that rare events of sex in asexual Artemia could occur between a rare male and an asexual female reproducing sexually. In a review of how asexual reproductive modes were identified in the literature, I found that there was a bias in the identification and general perception of asexuals toward clonality, as an important part of the asexual species reviewed were in fact non-clonal, and evidence for clonality was often missing. Furthermore, the maj ority of non-clonal asexuals had reproductive modes that resulted in low LOH. This suggests that non-clonal asexuals often evolve secondarily toward a more clonal-like reproduction, so that even clonal species may not have been clonal throughout their evolutionary history. Finally, using genomics on contagion-generated lineages, I found that in Artemia, rare males are produced asexually through recombination and thus LOH on the ZW sex chromosomes. We know that contagious asexuality, and possibly between-lineages crosses, occurred in the evolutionary history of A. parthenogenetica. Perhaps, contagious asexuality and/or within asexual sex events provide opportunities for the gene(s) controlling asexuality to escape declining lineages into new ones. In this case, contagious asexuality through rare males may be the reason why recombination persists in asexual Artemia. Whether non-clonal asexuality and sex events occur in many parthenogenetic species is still unclear, and requires thorou gh investigation. Theoretically, there is a strong need for models taking into account the genomic consequences of non-clonal and non-obligate asexuality, and their role in the transition from sex to asexuality and the maintenance of sex

Abstract:
À la croisée de la sociologie de la « déviance », de la sociologie de la sexualité et du genre, et de la critique des sciences, cette thèse porte sur un groupe social émergent : les personnes qui s'identifient en tant qu'asexuelles. Venant compléter d'un A le sigle LGBTQIA (+), ces personnes revendiquent une absence de désir et/ou d'attirance sexuelle pour autrui. La recherche s'appuie principalement sur une enquête qualitative par entretiens. Ont été recueillis et analysés les discours, revendications et récits autobiographiques de personnes asexuelles auto-identifiées résidant en France, militantes ou non. Ont aussi été interrogés un ensemble de sexologues et de psychothérapeutes, ainsi qu'un groupe témoin de personnes ne s'identifiant pas à l'asexualité et rapportant des « problèmes » dans leur vie sexuelle. Des événements collectifs (réunions, Marche des fiertés, congrès de sexologie) ont également été observés. L'idée, par ce travail et l'articulation de ces divers matériaux, était d'une part de s'intéresser en profondeur à cette auto-identification historiquement très récente, d'en mieux cerner les contours, les caractéristiques et les enjeux, et d'autre part de questionner le traitement social ordinaire du non-désir sexuel pour autrui, le plus souvent impensé ou implicitement problématisé, à la lumière des normes d'hier et d'aujourd'hui, de sexualité, de genre, de santé, d'identité
This thesis uses tools from labelling theory, sociology of “deviance”, sociology of sexuality and gender and criticism of science to focus on an emergent social group: individuals who self-identify as asexual, completing the acronym LGBTQIA(+) and reporting an absence of sexual desire for and/or sexual attraction to others. The dissertation is based on a qualitative survey and on a series of interviews. Discourses and trajectories of French self-identified asexuals (vocal activists or not) have been collected and analyzed. Sexologists and psychotherapists, and individuals having reported some sexual “issues” (without asexual self-identification) have also been interviewed. Finally, collective/community events (meetings, LGBT/Gay Pride, sexology conference in France) have been observed. The purpose of this research was, first of all, to study in detail this recent self-identification (asexuality) in order to better understand its characteristics and its implications, its words and its actions. Moreover, this work tries to highlight the ordinary conception of non-desire, and to propose a reflection, through asexuality, on sexuality, gender, health and identity standards

Abstract:
Human asexuality is defined as an absence of sexual attraction to anyone. Approximately 1% of the population is thought to be asexual. However, there has been a paucity of research into correlates of asexuality as well as into how asexuality is best conceptualized. This is in part due to logistical difficulties in recruiting and identifying representative samples of asexuals. Because of the low prevalence rate of asexuality, and the relatively recent emergence of asexual communities, many individuals who lack sexual attraction may not self-identify as asexual. Previous studies have recruited asexual participants via online web-communities, and relied on self-identification as asexual, which may result in non-representative sampling. The purpose of this study was two-fold. Firstly, in response to continuing debate as to whether asexuality is better understood as a sexual orientation or as a sexual dysfunction, Study 1 aimed to investigate the claim that asexuality would best be conceptualized as a sexual orientation in a large internet sample. Biological markers such as finger length ratios, handedness, and older siblings have may be related to prenatal development, and have been linked to sexual orientation. Asexual men and women were more likely to be non-right-handed than their heterosexual counterparts, and there were significant differences between sexual orientation groups on the number of older brothers and older sisters, and this differed depending on handedness. We found no significant differences between sexual orientation groups on measurements of 2D:4D ratio. However, this is likely due to the relatively small sample size. This is the first study to test and provide empirical support for an underlying biological etiology to account for the lack of sexual attraction characteristic of asexuality. Study 2 presents the development of a brief, self-report measure of asexuality. Initial testing of questionnaire items identified by an expert panel was followed by a study aimed at further refining the questionnaire. Based on discriminant analysis as well as reliability and validity tests, a 10-item measure was identified, and was found to be able to distinguish between sexual and asexual individuals. This measure will be used to obtain more representative samples of asexuals in future research.

Abstract:
Sexual reproduction is expected to facilitate the removal of deleterious mutations from populations because biparental inheritance (i.e., segregation) and recombination during meiosis break down linkage disequilibria (LD), allowing mutations to be selected independently from their genetic background. Accordingly, the absence of recombination and segregation is expected to increase selective interference between loci, translating into reduced efficacy of natural selection. While there now exist multiple lines of evidence demonstrating that asexual lineages do experience accelerated accumulation of putatively harmful mutations, whether these mutations influence phenotype in a manner that could contribute to the maintenance of sex remains almost entirely unevaluated. Here, I use the New Zealand freshwater snail, Potamopyrgus antipodarum, to address these questions. In particular, I take advantage of the fact that the mitochondrial genome is expected to suffer from these mutational effects and interacts extensively with the nuclear genome to evaluate potential harmful effects of mutation accumulation in asexuals on a genome-wide scale. I present evidence that harmful mutations remain extant longer in asexual populations than in sexual populations, that the degree of functional constraint determines the extent of mutation accumulation in asexuals, that there is genetic variation for mitochondrial function in asexual lineages of P. antipodarum, and that phenotypic variation for mitochondrial function is mediated by both genetic and environmental variation. Together, these analyses provide strong evidence that asexual lineages are accumulating deleterious mutations, and that there is genetic variation, structured by lake, for mitochondrial function.

Abstract:
Human asexuality is generally defined as a lack of sexual attraction. Various theories have been proposed to explain how asexuality should best be conceptualized, including that asexuality should be classified as a sexual orientation, that it is due to a mental health difficulty, that it is an extreme variant of hypoactive sexual desire disorder (HSDD), or that some asexual individuals actually experience a paraphilia of some kind. This dissertation employed a series of Internet-based research studies to investigate these three topics: an examination into mental health correlates of asexuality, a comparison of asexual individuals with individuals who meet diagnostic criteria for HSDD, and an investigation into patterns of sexual fantasy among asexual individuals. By investigating these topics, I sought to test whether asexuality might be a psychopathology, sexual dysfunction, or a paraphilia, with the ultimate goal of testing my hypothesis that asexuality is, in fact, a unique sexual orientation. My findings suggested that asexuality may be associated with higher prevalence of mental health and interpersonal problems, including anxiety, hostility, phobic anxiety, psychoticism, and suicidality, but that it is not, itself, a mental disorder. I concluded that this may be in response to perceived stigma against their sexual orientation, which might lead to psychological symptoms, or that lack of sexual attraction may arise from an underlying difficulty such as Autism Spectrum Disorder. Next, I found that asexuality is unique from the well-known sexual dysfunction HSDD. In my test of whether asexuality was a paraphilia, I found that asexual individuals were less likely to masturbate than sexual individuals, and that they were more likely to report never having had a sexual fantasy. Further, there was a large amount of unexpected overlap in the content of sexual fantasies between asexual and sexual participants. Together, these findings suggest that at least some asexual individuals may have a paraphilia. Overall, this dissertation highlights that no single theory can explain asexuality, and underscores the diversity among the asexual population. This dissertation leads to a number of new hypotheses about the nature of asexuality that will be the focus of future research.

Abstract:
Syftet med studien är att utforska representationer av asexualitet i samtida coming of age-ungdomsromaner med fokus på hur asexualitet (o)möjliggörs som en oproblematiserad position. Detta görs genom en närläsning av romanerna Tash Hearts Tolstoy, Let’s Talk About Love, Loveless och Beyond the Black Door utifrån ett queerteoretiskt perspektiv. Romanernas skildringar av asexualitet utmanar föreställningar om att sexuellt begär är en essentiell del i vuxenblivandet och tillåter den asexuella positionen att existera utan att formas av negativa stereotyper. Romanernas huvudpersoner genomgår processer av att komma till insikt om sin asexuella identitet, acceptera den för sig själva och komma ut med den för omgivningen. Den obligatoriska sexualiteten är ständigt närvarande i dessa processer men det är den asexuella positionens marginaliserade position jämte den obligatoriska sexualiteten som framställs som problemet snarare än asexualiteten i sig.
The aim of the study is to explore representations of asexuality in contemporary coming of age young adult novels with a focus on how asexuality is made (im)possible as an unproblematic position. This is done through a close reading of the novels Tash Hearts Tolstoy, Let’s Talk About Love, Loveless and Beyond the Black Door from a queer theoretical perspective. The novels’ depictions of asexuality challenge notions that sexual desire is an essential part of becoming an adult and allow the asexual position to exist without being shaped by negative stereotypes. The protagonists of the novels go through processes of realizing and accepting their asexuality for themselves and also coming out to their surroundings. Compulsory sexuality is constantly present in these processes, but it is the marginalization of the asexual position in relation to compulsory sexuality that is understood as the problem rather than asexuality itself.

Abstract:
Asexuality is defined as a lack of sexual attraction to members of any sex or gender. This phenotype would be considered detrimental in the context of the fitness of the asexual individual, so the question on how this trait originated and continues to persist remains unanswered. Synthesizing studies on asexual humans, homosexual human genetics, evolutionary selection theories, and historical context, the issue of asexuality and the fitness of asexual individuals is considered from multiple points of view. While no clear conclusion is produced, the possibility of a combination of polygenic traits and cultural context not seen in most animal species is proposed as possibly asexuality’s initial origin and persistence in human populations. Further research is needed in queer studies and behavioral evolution before a more definite conclusion can be reached.

Abstract:
Being viewed as a sexual being is perhaps not something often considered by most able-bodied people. Yet, lacking that kind of consideration is not a luxury that people with physical impairments naturally get. The purpose of this study is to, by using the perspective of crip theory and the social model, examine how the societal view of physical impairment and sexuality affect people with physical impairments and their ability to express and act on their sexuality. Five interviews were transcribed from two podcasts wherein four interviewees, two cisgendered men and two cisgendered women, talk about their personal experiences with navigating a socially, and sometimes physically, inaccessible sexual marketplace. Results show that all four interviewees agree that a societal view of people with physical impairments as unattractive and asexual has affected their self-esteem and self-image by having internalized the societal ableist attitudes of what it means to have an attractive body and to be an attractive partner. Results also show how the female interviewees have experienced an increased need for affirmations of their physical attractiveness through sexual and romantic relationships and how they believe these needs to be grounded in their internalized ableism.  Furthermore, the results of this study reveal how the male interviewees believe their acts of having bought sexual services from sexual surrogates to be grounded in the sexual exclusion they experience from the sexual market because of their physical impairments.
