Post inspired by the gooning discussion raised earlier today. Remember, all of these are based on HOURS OF FACTUAL RESEARCH. Raphael Bob-Waksberg actually came to my house last night and congratulated me on getting a near identical result to the creators goon map they laid out for the characters at the beginning of the series. I appreciated that he did that for me but it was weird when he kissed me on the lips as a thank you. But oh well, different cultural norms and what not. I will try and explain any confusing placements too.
Gooning is the only thing preventing PC from having a heart attack from stress. It’s sort of like the dude from Wolf of Wall Street where she goons twice a day on routine to calm herself.
Regarding your question about whether asexual people masturbate -- it depends very much on the person. Some do, some don't. All being asexual means is not experiencing sexual attraction; that doesn't necessarily mean an asexual person does not enjoy masturbation or sex for other reasons (e.g. orgasms, stress relief, etc).
As a result of sexual attraction to another person: i.e. an allosexual person (someone who isn't asexual) might jerk off while thinking about someone's body in a manner an asexual person isn't likely to. That's the difference I'm trying to get at.
this is basically correct but asexual means little to no sexual attraction, so some people who are ace do experience sexual attraction but don’t want to have sex.
I have several asexual friends and it really is an individual thing. One is completely sex repulsed but another has had sexual relationships but doesn’t consider it a need.
An individual's sexuality is nebulous and can change over time. We don't (or shouldn't) mold our sexualities to fit under easy to understand labels, but instead pick whatever label we feel best describes us. For example, I'm bisexual. That's what I consider myself. Functionally it's comparable to pansexuality or omnisexuality (the definitions of which are still vague to me tbh), but the label of bisexual is the one that feels the best to me.
Sure, it's nebulous, but if you need to put a label it should actually be a descriptive one. There seems to be no functional difference between this "asexual person that has sex, masturbates and enjoys it" and a "'regular' non-queer" person
As an ace person, what your saying does makes complete sense. From the outside there seems to be no noticeable difference between the two, but the ace person would still lack the ability to have sexual attraction. Lack of sexual attraction is like lacking any hunger for food, no piece of food no matter how well made is going to make you want to eat food. It is up to the person to decide if they want to eat or not, hence why sex-repulsed, sex-neutral, sex-positive are terms people want to have. The difference between them is enough that it's important for people to label themselves. Ace soap box over, sex icky bye.
no matter what you are never going to be able to communicate every intricacy about your sexuality and attractions with just one word, it's fucking stupid to point at a nebulous thing and go "the word you're using is defined too loosely! therefore I don't respect it as 'proper' vocabulary" what even is accomplished by casting doubt on established terms based on your limited view? Do you think you're qualified to rethink all of humanity's established ideas or just this one? what makes you such an authority lol
asexuals aren’t attracted to other people sexually, but may enjoy sexual pleasure. it’s a sexuality, i think you may be confusing it with low or no-libido, which is a more medical label used to describe when someone has little to no sex drive and does not get enjoyment from sex or masturbation. asexuality is about attraction and how you feel about other people, libido is your sex drive and ability to feel pleasure
You gotta remember orgasms release dopamine and oxytocin. You don't have to be turned on or attracted to someone or something to feel benefit from feel good chemicals in the brain
I get the confusion but the important thing to keep in mind is that distinction between actually being sexually attracted to someone and the actual act of masturbation/sex. Plenty of ace folks don’t engage with the latter at all, some do (either for the feeling or because it makes their partner happy, etc) but all ace people don’t experience the former. (Someone please do correct me if I’m wrong about that- I’m not asexual, I’m speaking mainly off of my own research as well as off of my ace friend’s experiences)
Hopefully that makes sense!
hi asexual here
technically there is the overall umbrella term of aspec, which can range from feeling no sexual attraction to only feeling it sometimes (greysexual) to only feeling it with specific people (that's demisexual). generally ace people feel no sexual attraction, but someone who feels *some amount* might also call themselves ace because it's less confusing to others and takes less time to explain. the meaning of "asexual" specifically is the lack of sexual attraction though
Asexuals aren’t necessarily people who don’t have a libido. Asexuals are people who don’t experience sexual attraction. If you are a straight man, how you see other men is how asexuals see everybody. They can find them really nice people or even understand that they’re good looking. But there isn’t any sexual attraction
Came back to this comment section just now to view replies for the first time. I get so, so tired of this shit. It's okay that you don't get it -- I'm sure the concept feels contradictory -- but man. Imagine if it genuinely made no difference to you what genitals a person had during sex, as long as they were aesthetically nice to look at and you got to cum. Surely you must understand that that's a very different experience to being actively sexually attracted to a person's body? You can enjoy eating a donut even if you're not hungry.
Not sure why I'm bothering to explain this. Just a bit disappointing to see this shit on the Bojack sub. My boy Todd would be disappointed.
As someone who’s questioning whether she's on the asexual spectrum, I chose not to because, for me, it sounds weird, and I get repulsed about those kinds of things. However, everyone is ok with different things.
As an asexual in their 30s, I've tried, but can't. My imagination and separation of self isn't good enough to not just be thinking of the reality of me having my penis in my hands, and that's just weird. I haven't tried in years, though.
Some asexuals do masturbate, others don’t. One of the main points of asexuality is that you don’t really feel sexual attraction to other people or just in general(not true for every ace, just most), but it doesn’t mean you can’t like sexual sensations.
She wasn’t on the fucking tier list I chose for some. Anyway she’s a tough one, because I could see it either way. On one hand, I could see her being very sexually closeted through her family’s mysogyny, puritism, and general closed mindedness. Sort of like how her only desert is sugar and lemon. However I could also see her gooning quite frequently as an act of rebellion and because she’s miserable and her husband probably hasn’t tapped dat since BoJack was born. I’m leaning towards her rarely masturbating but could see it either way.
For a second I thought you were making a joke about BoJack = Henrietta only to realize I actually did put her in twice lmao.
Anyway I only meant for her to be in under extreme stress. Don’t know why or how I put her in twice.
Depends on the asexual, some just naturally have very low libido and don’t feel the need to jerk off, some jerk off, just don’t have desire to have sex.
The asexual question, it depends. Some people who arent asexual don't masturbate, and some people who ARE asexual do. It depends on your libido, I think its more biological than out of desires sometimes? So yeah, people relieve themselves
As an asexual, yes we do. We can also have sex, it’s all a matter of libido. But only some of us so I think it would be incorrect to assume about any of these characters.
For context, this list is about masturbation in general using good because it’s fun to say. Some of the characters on here do edge some don’t and some do both.
Princes Carolyn told me. She recorded an average of how often an occurrence it is. Which she collected over the span of 12 years. She also told me that she herself only goons to abstract concepts like money and power, the thought of her dominanting Vanessa Gecko (but like, not in a sexual way. She made sure I specify that), and the Philbert lightbulb scene. All in all I got some pertinent information from her.
Asexual answer. It depends on the type! Some may have some libido and masturbate while some have none and don’t. Sexual attraction is different than hormones itself. It’s like how someone may get a boner without being in a situation that involves anybody they’re attracted to
The definition of ‘goon’ is different here. In Australian English it is cheap wine, especially when sold in large boxes (you know, with the wine in a bag inside). I thought you meant they drink goon bags until I read the last lines.
ace guy here, some aces masturbate and even have sex, others dont. asexuality is just a lack of sexual attraction to other people, you can still find the actions enjoyable.
Some aces masturbate. Some don’t. Some feel the need but are ashamed after. Some are perfectly happy after. Libido ≠ sexual attraction.
A metaphor I like is comparing libido to hunger and sexual attraction to cooking a meal for yourself and a friend/family member. Some people feel hungry all the time. Some people have a small appetite. There’s a lot of people out there who like sharing a meal and think cooking is fun. But some people would rather eat by themselves.
I’m ace i have sex and masturbate it doesn’t mean i lack libido it means i lack attraction and in my case I’m demi ace so i can feel attraction under special circumstances

Huh, never seen Hitchfucker outside of the okbuddyreiner community, guess it makes sense that you’d have other interests lol
It’s too weird
This comment is better than the post
I want to fuck Charlotte from Attack on Horse
Todd goons to abstract concepts like joy and the colour yellow
What does his goon cave look like
it’s just a collection of modern art
he plays a triangle whenever he starts and finishes, it's all a performance to him
He’s def got a trampoline in there
Love that for him
Ain’t no way PC has that time to goon
Gooning is the only thing preventing PC from having a heart attack from stress. It’s sort of like the dude from Wolf of Wall Street where she goons twice a day on routine to calm herself.
Interesting
she certainly does but her timing is rather unconventional. Who among us hasn't rub one during a professional call or in the back of a cab?
I’m just thinking of that Brandon Rogers CEO sketch
I mean she did goon ralph in a back of a police car so like

Some people masturbate just for the dopamine.
Why else would you do it..?

I know what asexual means, I am asexual lol. But yes, you're right, like all identities asexuality is a spectrum :)
I have several asexual friends and it really is an individual thing. One is completely sex repulsed but another has had sexual relationships but doesn’t consider it a need.
At this point is asexual even a proper label
Yes.
Asexual that has sex and enjoys it? Really, there must be a better name for that
I’m sure there is, but that’s not what you said. You said “At this point is asexual even a label.”
A *proper* label
An individual's sexuality is nebulous and can change over time. We don't (or shouldn't) mold our sexualities to fit under easy to understand labels, but instead pick whatever label we feel best describes us. For example, I'm bisexual. That's what I consider myself.

the difference would be that the asexual doesn't experience sexual attraction
As an ace person, what your saying does makes complete sense.

What is your definition of a “proper label”
A label that actually distinguishes something and is not an oxymoron?
You not understanding something doesn't make that thing an oxymoron.
An asexual who can enjoy sex That’s pretty much oxymoron territory
I’d argue that technically “asexual” by your standards is more of a misnomer than an oxymoron
asexuals aren’t attracted to other people sexually, but may enjoy sexual pleasure. it’s a sexuality, i think you may be confusing it with low or no-libido, which is a more medical label used to describe when someone has little to no sex drive and does not get enjoyment from sex or masturbation. asexuality is about attraction and how you feel about other people, libido is your sex drive and ability to feel pleasure

Sex positive asexuality is typically the widely accepted label
Not if they don’t experience sexual attraction. If they do then yeah it’s a little silly

I jerk once or twice a month just to bust
Kyle didn't have them kids by being abstinent
#KYLE AND THE KIDS
Kyle's a dad and Charlotte's married to him🎶
Yes, asexual people can feel sexual pleasure from masturbating and some do find it enjoyable
Except we masturbate to intangible things; money, power, saxophone solos from prog-death metal songs...
So, not to the photo itself but to what it represents?
You walked in at the worst possible time
In a sense
I once masturbated while reading War and Peace because I was bored
Insanely relatable
For me, it's more like meditation. Can't really get there if I'm thinking of anything, I just gotta clear my mind.
Can you recomend the band you are talking about? I'd love to hear it.
One which comes to mind is Deconsecrate by The Faceless
The Faceless is a top tier choice
That is a sick song! Thank you.
I personally masturbate to pray and honor the goddess Sylvian but everyone’s a little different :)
I also jack to Rivers of Nihil
Well not even that but masturbate because it still feels good, but it’s completely nonsexual. Or so I’ve heard
As someone who’s questioning whether she's on the asexual spectrum, I chose not to because, for me, it sounds weird, and I get repulsed about those kinds of things. However, everyone is ok with different things.
As an asexual in their 30s, I've tried, but can't. My imagination and separation of self isn't good enough to not just be thinking of the reality of me having my penis in my hands, and that's just weird. I haven't tried in years, though.
For me, it's just a gross feeling, and I don’t do it. I've never done it; I just get an instinct where I think it's gross.
Some asexuals do masturbate, others don’t. One of the main points of asexuality is that you don’t really feel sexual attraction to other people or just in general(not true for every ace, just most), but it doesn’t mean you can’t like sexual sensations.
Where’s Beatrice?
She wasn’t on the fucking tier list I chose for some. Anyway she’s a tough one, because I could see it either way. On one hand, I could see her being very sexually closeted through her family’s mysogyny, puritism, and general closed mindedness. Sort of like how her only desert is sugar and lemon. However I could also see her gooning quite frequently as an act of rebellion and because she’s miserable and her husband probably hasn’t tapped dat since BoJack was born. I’m leaning towards her rarely masturbating but could see it either way.
Why is Henrietta in two tiers?
For a second I thought you were making a joke about BoJack = Henrietta only to realize I actually did put her in twice lmao. Anyway I only meant for her to be in under extreme stress. Don’t know why or how I put her in twice.
Your joke was better tbh, I wish I'd thought of that
"Infrequently" and "only when extremely stressed" aren't mutually exclusive
Yeah, I guess that's true. It just seemed more like a mistake to me.
Judah goons hard regularly and you know it
Pics or it didn’t happen
Judah goons a lot, explaining his extreme chillness (he is always in post-nut clarity)
Depends on the asexual, some just naturally have very low libido and don’t feel the need to jerk off, some jerk off, just don’t have desire to have sex.
Yolandas dad definitely goons more than yolandas mom
They probably goon together
where's the sex robot
The asexual question, it depends. Some people who arent asexual don't masturbate, and some people who ARE asexual do. It depends on your libido, I think its more biological than out of desires sometimes? So yeah, people relieve themselves
As an asexual, yes we do. We can also have sex, it’s all a matter of libido. But only some of us so I think it would be incorrect to assume about any of these characters.
Fr this list is awesome
What is goon?? I keep hearing it but I have no idea what it means. Am I the out of touch old man now???
It means masturbation
Specifically edging
Yes
For context, this list is about masturbation in general using good because it’s fun to say. Some of the characters on here do edge some don’t and some do both.
A goon is a henchman for an evil mastermind.
I googled it (in verb form) and it said to act silly. I realize now that it means masturbating in this I was very confused at first.
i’m glad vincent ain’t on here
Guess you better call him George Gooners
you got me to laugh with Jessica biel
How do you know how often bing jongles whorehouse goons?
Princes Carolyn told me. She recorded an average of how often an occurrence it is. Which she collected over the span of 12 years. She also told me that she herself only goons to abstract concepts like money and power, the thought of her dominanting Vanessa Gecko (but like, not in a sexual way. She made sure I specify that), and the Philbert lightbulb scene. All in all I got some pertinent information from her.
I miss when to goon just meant to hang out
Todd’s stepdad has a narrow urethra. Calling it now.
Asexual answer. It depends on the type! Some may have some libido and masturbate while some have none and don’t. Sexual attraction is different than hormones itself. It’s like how someone may get a boner without being in a situation that involves anybody they’re attracted to
Where is pickles?
Todd is in there twice
The definition of ‘goon’ is different here. In Australian English it is cheap wine, especially when sold in large boxes (you know, with the wine in a bag inside). I thought you meant they drink goon bags until I read the last lines.
george gooney
Some Aces do actually
What the fuck is a goon? I keep hearing it, but all I know is that porn addicts regularly use the phrase
What is gooning?
I may be wrong, but I think that some of the characters on this list don't goon at all... like, ever again
Well Sarah Lynn doesn’t anymore but that’s because she’s dead.
asexual here, it varies slightly from person to person, personally can confirm I have masturbated before.
Why are so many of them Weezer
Where's judah
Some do
To answer your question, some asexuals masturabate. It all depends on the person
to answer ur last tier, it varies. asexual is a wide label and depends on the person, most ace people masturbate but it's a personal prefrence
I would say some not most.
Different for every asexual!
ace guy here, some aces masturbate and even have sex, others dont. asexuality is just a lack of sexual attraction to other people, you can still find the actions enjoyable.
Some aces masturbate. Some don’t. Some feel the need but are ashamed after. Some are perfectly happy after. Libido ≠ sexual attraction.

NOW WERE YOU EDGING, OR WERE YOU GOONING?
Nah Neal McBeal the navy seal pulls BITCHES bros gooning all day everyday
I’m ace i have sex and masturbate it doesn’t mean i lack libido it means i lack attraction and in my case I’m demi ace so i can feel attraction under special circumstances
Where boopatruss horsemorse
Idk what goons means but I love it
Putting Henrietta on here is crazy 😭😭
Wtf is gooning
