As humans, the relationships we form with other people are vital to our
mental and emotional well-being and even our survival. Also, sexual
interest plays an important role in relationships. What if the person has
romantic desires for someone without necessarily having a sexual
desire for that person? There are serval reasons why people don’t have
sexual desire for someone. In this essay, I’ll point out a few of these.
  Coitophobia ( genophobia) is generally a phobia that is a fear of sexual
intercourse. Rape and molestation are the most common triggers for
genophobia, but cultural upbringing and religious teachings may also
increase the risk for this fear. There is no cure for this phobia but they
can have therapy from psychologists, psychiatrists, or their doctors. Of
course, people who have this phobia can have a happy relationship, but
no one ever questioned whether their relationship will last forever or
not. Will their partners understand them? Or can their partner live
forever without having any sexual activities with them? Have you ever
heard of platonic love? Platonic love is a type of love in which sexual
desire is nonexistent, devised by Plato. Platonic love originally centered
on relationships that were sexual between the same sex. People still
argue whether this type of love existed or not. I have read a book about
bromance, including genophobia and Platonic love. In there, the main
character has genophobia because he saw a child abuse case in front of
him when he was in childhood. But his partner showed him platonic
love exists. 
People who have genophobia can be loved? is it possible? Yes, It is
possible to love someone, for who they are inside and out, and to love
them and accept them, without desiring or needing a physical
relationship that you have so much respect, love, and trust in that other
people who you don' t need anything else than to be around them and
have their companionship and support.

In recent years, through , bromances have become cool again. Young
men get more emotional satisfaction out of “bromances” close,
heterosexual friendships with other males other than having
romantic relationships with women. There are serval reasons why
men like bromance rather than being in a relationship with women.
Some straight guys now prefer bromance than romance. Non-sexual,
relations with other men is widely accepted and normal, and no one
would consider them to be homosexual. There are many benefits
associated with being in a Bromance . Men may benefit greatly from
long-term, same-sex friendships—especially if they’re not
comfortable with being emotionally intimate with women.
Compared to normal sexual romantic relationships. People who are in a
Bromance have emotional stability.  Women are allowed to get and
offer emotional support and enjoy self-disclosure, while men are only
allowed to share activities and interests in their friendships. This way,
men are expected to be impersonal while women can be personal. In a
Bromance, men are allowed to be vulnerable, open, and personal
without losing their sense of masculinity.
Men should enjoy bromance rather than romance. Cuz ‘ romance is
temporary’ while ‘Bromance can last a lifetime”.

When searching for texts to use as reference materials I made sure that
they met a set of criteria that would help me decide if they were
relevant to my report topic. I read a lot of websites, blog and some
articles from google. After reading them I know more about my topic
and conduct my research more effectively I found two different
relevant examples that benefits of social media and how it solved
world’s problems (Wells . J 2022). It explains how Social media
networks can offer huge advantages for your business and helping you
to make connections with your target audience. Also it written social

my topic and also I got related ideas. I watched some youtube videos
like interviews, debate and vlog which are related to my topics to get
