Celibacy and Asexuality

Alana’s Involuntary Celibacy Project
Not all single people are celibate, and not all celibate people are single! But there are some overlaps between the two groups. A page full of resources for people who have never had a romantic or sexual relationship, or haven’t had one for a long time, but would like to.

Celibacy Forum
This site lists links to other sites and discussion groups about celibacy.

Asexuality Visibility and Education Network
An amazing source of information and community for the growing movement of people who don’t experience sexual attraction.
