As an asexual, I like to think that there is someone out there who will love me for who I am and stay with me forever. However, it's hard to imagine any guy being okay with a mostly platonic relationship. Almost everyone expects a relationship to include sex. Mine won't, and I'm afraid that I'm going to die alone, unable to find someone who loves me doesn't care about the lack of sex.
it's difficult for people to separate their biological urges from their emotions. your lucky that your love isn't a product of your reproductive programming. everyone else claims to love their significant others, but universally end up with someone of a predetermined sex. whomever you wind up loving should feel honored. i know i'd give up sex for someone who loved me for just me, and i'm sure their are others out there who feel the same.
To be one known sex, but to crave the other has to be confusing and painful. Even finding someone to love feels and seems impossible.Happiness isn't easy for everyone, even though most people expect and demand that we all should act the same, but we are all different. Who said we would all get the same share of genes, and develope the same way. Too be imperfect is to be perfect if you can except it as it is, if you aren't hurting anyone else.
I have fallen deeply in LOVE with this movie when i was a lot younger. Its a bit of an obsession. I can greatly relate to her feelings. Even though i haven't had a sex change of any sort. I even have the same tattoo :D
My favorite film ever.

This is totally brilliant -- in context (in the film), and out (as a presentation of the myth). And great performance.

You can find another animated adaptation of the same text of Plato on Youtube. It is titled "Speech of Aristophanes".
Type it in the search engine.
