 note = {Judith Butler’s theory of melancholy gender echoes some findings in
asexuality studies; however, it does not consider asexual agency. Thus, this
article aims to review Butler’s literature from the standpoint of asexuality
studies. I argue that Freudian theory denies the possibility of asexuality
because of its hypothesis of primary narcissism. Similar to melancholia,
primary narcissism has the “trace” of the object. However, Butler overlooks
the significant difference between melancholia and primary narcissism. Unlike
melancholia, primary narcissism is not marked by the experience of selfberatement;
thus, it does not contain any affects that can be converted to
political expression. In the system of compulsory sexuality, asexuality can be
situated in a similar position. Based on the above points, I refer to the
prohibition of homosexuality in melancholia as “foreclosure” and the denial
of asexuality in primary narcissism as “erasure.” In this way, Butler’s
framework is extended in order to theorize the possibility of resistance in
asexuality.},
