Asexual marriage bothers highly-educated women

Chinanews, Chongqing, July 11 �C A website on asexual marriage was
recently launched in Chongqing municipality. After it was opened, many
people logged onto the website. In just ten days, 400 people registered
as subscribers on the website, 60% of them women.
Last Sunday, 20 people considered as belonging to the asexual group
gathered in Tieshanping, in Jiangbei district of Chongqing. Most of them
were married. Among these people, 30% were couples that came together. At
the gathering, the organizer invited psychological doctors to teach them
how to maintain their marriage in asexual status.
The most active members at the meeting were not those unmarried people
who came there looking for partners, but the couple themselves. ��From
appearance, they look just the same as any couples. They talk and chat,
and even have some intimate behaviors, �� said the organizer.
The website was created by a person surnamed Peng who works in the
psychological field. He said that apart from physical, psychological
defects, and a dull relationship between husband and wife, asexual
marriages were mainly caused by too much work pressure for the husband
and wife to devote their time to maintaining their marriage.
��Asexual marriage is not a sin but the couple should face it with a
positive attitude. If they don��t communicate with each other,
misunderstanding will arise between the couple and overnight romance will
come about,�� said Peng. By launching the website, Mr. Peng said that he
hoped that more people involved in asexual marriage would be able to find
their suitable marriage partner and couples could shake off the asexual
status as soon as possible.
At present, most people that have asexual marriage are the highly
educated group. Among them, there are teachers, officials, white collar
workers, etc. For many, their asexual marriages are caused by post-natal
factors instead of physical defects or a sudden incident.
According to sociologists, apart from diseases or sudden changes, couples
that do not have any sexual relationships with each other for a month are
involved in an asexual marriage relationship.
