Woman Cheered for 'Slut Shaming' Sister Who Slept With Fiancé in Her Bed

A woman has been applauded for "slut shaming" her sister after she slept with her fiancé in her bed, and left the evidence behind.

The 23-year-old shared the situation to Reddit, under username u/RemarkableLow6689, where she explained she was a "sex repulsed asexual."

The term "asexual" is defined as someone who "does not experience sexual attraction," website Asexuality.org said.

People who identify as this "are not drawn to people sexually and do not desire to act upon attraction to others in a sexual way," the site added.

They went on to say asexuals have a "wide variety of attitudes towards sex," as the sibling shared her stance, saying: "If someone loves sex I'm never ever rude to them or think bad about them. If they have healthy sex life and they are happy, I'm happy for them too."

But she had rules about her own home, as she asked her 26-year-old sister, who was staying for a week with her new fiancé, to be discreet if engaging in any sexual relations while visiting.

"My sister knows that I'm asexual and how I feel about sex in general," she explained.

Despite the request, on the first night she was awoken by noises from the pair getting frisky in the next room—with their door open.

She ignored them, but over the next few days the newly-engaged couple took a steamy shower together, and got up to some more late-night activities.

After reiterating her request, she claims her sister "smirked, apologized and said it wont happen again and not to worry."

But the last straw was when she discovered clear evidence of copulation in her own room.

She fumed: "I was cleaning my room this morning and saw some trash under my bed so I just took it out and when I saw what it was I almost threw up. It was used condom. I screamed threw it on the floor and just stood there in shock.

"My sister came to my room to see what was going on and when she saw it she looked surprised and then f**king laugh about it. She said 'oops, sorry'."

"Mortified," she felt tears welling up and confronted her sister about having sex in her bed.

She shared their fallout, saying: "She looked at me like I was a crazy person and just told me to stop over reacting and that 'people in a real relationships have sex all the time'.

"How I should stop making being asexual/gay into my personality and that I need to grow up and that 'normal men and women are meant to have sex with each other' and so on."

It all boiled over as the woman kicked them out, as she relayed: "I told her that this is my house and these are my rules and if they can't respect that they can f**k off. And also that if 2 grown a** people can't go one week without sex it's very pathetic and sad and they need to learn to control themself better.

"She got really upset and started to cry. Her fiancé was in a store so she called him and they left. They messaged me and said that I was an asshole and I slut shamed my sister for being in love and that I need therapy for my 'problems'."

While not confirmed where the poster is based, some 1.7 percent of Americans identify as asexual, a study by the Williams Institute revealed in 2019.

They quoted lead author and Williams Institute scholar, Esther D. Rothblum, who said: "Asexuality is an emerging identity."

The study revealed asexuals reported more "more everyday discrimination and stigma than non-asexual LGB people."

The post, which can be read here, has racked up more than 18,000 upvotes, as people slammed the sister's actions.

The top comment, from Sdxab1my, was liked more than 27,000 times, saying: "NTA, even if you weren't asexual. Wtf?? Your sister should have more respect for other people's personal space and boundaries. And the nastiness of a used condom? Under your bed?? No. Definitely NTA. Of all the people I've dated and had sex with, I've never once thought to just go do it all over someone's house because 'sex is normal'."

Floweringbirds commented: "Totally agree with you. No person accidentally leaves a used condom under someone else's bed. That just doesn't happen. NTA."

MissyDragonfly said: "Yep. That was deliberate and hateful. I'm very enthusiastic about sex, but that's the last time they would be in my house."

After the post blew up, she shared an update, revealing her sister had displayed a few "red flags" ever since she came out, adding she was limiting contact for a while.

"She said that she was sorry but they did want to convert me and 'cure' me and show that sex is a normal healthy thing," she added.
