Values as Determinants of Asexual People’s Attitudes Towards Domestic Partnerships in the Light of Educational Experiences. Challenges for Education

Summary/Abstract: The article aims to present, as a result of the conducted research, the attitudes of people identifying as asexual towards domestic partnerships with particular emphasis on the context of values experienced in the process of family upbringing by these people. It was assumed that upbringing in a family is a point of reference that allows for identifying specific values and patterns of behaviour that have a significant role in shaping a person’s identity. Asexual people, often misunderstood by their environment, perceive relationships primarily as a space of emotional closeness built on the foundation of, among others, such values as trust, honesty, freedom, agreement of views, understanding, respect, tolerance, openness, safety, maturity, cooperation and equality. Creating a healthy educational environment that supports diversity, develops respect for different identities and helps eliminate stereotypes, such as those regarding asexuality, is a challenge for education under the banner of equality education.
