I know this might sound like a stupid question but I'd rather get answers on reddit than any ai summary.

I'm 7 years into a romantic relationship, and open to my family and my mom is as supportive as she can be as a late boomer. She tends to question it however, and has asked me this question multiple times:

"You do know that if you want to marry [bf] you HAVE to have sex with him, right?"

I think it's crazy for her to think but she's the only one in my life who's ever had an opinion like this so now I gotta ask the Internet; is sex required for marriage?

Also, yes my bf is very aware of my asexuality and respects it despite his drive. I didn't bring up my mom's opinion to him though.
