What must always be affirmed and reaffirmed is the truth that having rare, absent, or “low” sexual desire is not shameful. It is not an inherent aberration that needs to be urgently fixed—regardless of what the reasons behind it may or may not be, regardless of what other things it might be tangled up with—especially if the methods for “fixing” it come with side effects that negatively impact our actual health, and if the reasons for why we feel the need to “fix” it are due to societal, medical, or interpersonal pressures.
