Powerfully persuasive and thought-provoking, Ending the Pursuit asks us to reimagine sexuality, romance and gender without the borders imposed by society.

How did asexual identity form? What is aromanticism? How does agender identity function? Researcher and writer Michael Paramo explores these misunderstood experiences, from the complex challenge of coming out to navigating the western lens of attraction. Expertly mapping their history, Paramo traces the emergence of vital online communities to the origins of the Victorian binaries that still restrict us today.

With a ground-breaking blend of memoir and poetry, online articles and discussions, Ending the Pursuit gives voice to an overlooked community. It encourages us to end the search for 'normalcy' and cut the ties that have restricted how we see ourselves and the world.
