Rated X: A documentary about asexuality

by: Erin Petrow, Samantha Crisp, Charlotte Arnold, Billy Diep and Jacqueline Brady

 

Created during my final year in university, Rated X is the final product of three months of very hard work by myself and four other amazing journalists.

Look inside one of the most misunderstood and under-represented sexualites in western society: Asexuality. We live in a world where sex sells everything from shoes to liquid-plumr, but what about the approximately one per cent of people who don't experience sexual attraction at all? Five self-identified asexuals in Toronto share their experiences as well as the unexpected struggles they face. Dr. Tony Bogaert, a psychologist at Brock University, also shares his thoughts and findings after pioneering research in asexuality over a decade ago.
