    Asexual ≠ Sex Repulsed

    Asexual = No Sexual Attraction

    There are ace folks who are sex repulsed but it isn’t the same thing. You can still have a sex drive without being sexually attracted to anyone. It’s definitely not the norm but one ace person I know will basically screw anyone because it’s all the same to her. While that’s a bit of an extreme example, there are plenty of sex positive ace folks out there. Personally I don’t feel sexual attraction but I still crave intimacy and sex is pretty intimate so it still fills that.
