Benedict on Sherlock's sexuality

[karadinart]

"Well, I see no reason at all why he shouldn't be sexual. Everyone recruited him to their perspective, their interpretation. I mean, the man's too busy to have sex. That's really what is it. Not every man has a sex drive that needs to be attended to. Like a lot of things in his life where he's purposely dehumanized himself, it's do to with not wanting the stuff that is time wasting, that's messy. That goes for certain relationships, as well as sexual intimacy."

THIS totally, he invests himself in his time and on his terms. He willfully controls as much as possible, that is his comfort zone, so that includes relationships, sex and well everything else that doesn't involve work. The man even sees food and non-work related communication as a necessary evil/diversion so why are people surprised?

I've met men who have no interest in sex until they are actually involved deeply in a relationship. It's not something that is seen as a wholesome male attitude so for most people I'm guessing it's one of those invisible truths of life.

Yep, have to agree with you and Benedict.
