In her late teens, Amanda, a woman from Leeds, England, realized she had an attraction to objects more than people. She is objectum-sexual.
In an interview with Truly, she confided in this form of love. I was in love with drums when I was 14.” she remembers. “Then, years later, I fell in love with the American flag and the Statue of Liberty.“.
Today, Amanda considers herself in a relationship with a chandelier. “He is fun and handsome. He is 100 years old. It is symmetrical“, she details to justify her attraction to this object. “I found it on eBay, it was in Germany. I immediately fell in love with its energy and its positive vibes.“, she says.
But for her, life is not easy every day. Indeed, it is often confronted with many value judgments.
“It’s difficult, because no one understands me. JI’m doing this interview to open people’s eyes, not only to objectum-sexuality, but also to anyone who feels excluded or different, because what matters is your health and happiness. Generally speaking, I think there is still a lot of misunderstanding in the world. But people are more and more open to difference. There’s more acceptance than before, but there’s definitely still work to be done“.
For her future, Amanda does not close the door to a relationship with a human, she who has already had two men in her life.
