if someone's asexual, that means they don't feel sexual attraction to any specific person. they can want to have sex, they can like sex, but they don't want to have sex with any specific person.

Asexuality is where we do not feel attracted to anyone sexually. Along with heterosexuality, homosexuality and bisexuality, this is one of the major sexual orientations.
It's something wherein a person lacks sexual attraction or interest towards other people or an activity.

Well, easy answer, it's when you don't feel sexually attracted to anyone of any gender, and is a completely separate thing from just choosing not to have sexual relations. You can be asexual and still have a romantic orientation, such as heteromantic, homoromantic, or any of the other orientations that one can have in a sexual orientation, just not in that sexual way. Asexuality is a spectrum, like many things, and you can have asexuals who are entirely repulsed to the notion of sex and feel that attraction to absolutely no one ever, but you can also have asexuals who still feel sexual attraction, just not a lot/frequently, or anywhere in between.

Asexuality is when you are not interested in having sex with your partner. This does not mean you are not interested in having a parther, you just rather not get touchy touchy with them. This also does not mean that you will not have sex, just that that is not what you are directly looking for in a relationship. Asexuals usually look for someone's heart, how they act, not how they are in bed. Some people may think that this is odd, but it is perfectly normal, just as being bi, pan, or gay is. I support asexuals fully.

Hey there!
Asexuality is defined as not feeling sexual attraction, but it is also a spectrum.
There are Demisexuals who feel sexual attraction only after having a connection to that person, Gray Asexuals feel sexual attraction rarely or at a low intensity.
Asexuals might ‘sleep with’ someone else for their own or their partner’s fullfillment, even though they aren’t attracted to people that way.
Some Asexuals fall under “sex-repulsedâ€, where the thought of any sexual things makes them sick.
To sum it up, Asexuals are part of a spectrum of sexual attraction intensity. They don’t feel sexual attraction, unless they fall under one of the various identities mentioned above. I hope this didn’t turn out too confusing!

Asexuality is when someone does not want sex, they don't feel the need
it means that the person does not have any sexual feelings towards any gender and basically they aren't sexually attracted to anyone.
Asexuality is the part of the orientation spectrum where an individual may not experience sexual desire, sexual attraction or romantic urges. Some may still be sexually active or be in romantic relationships, some may not be. Anything fitting in between is okay too

Asexuality is described as having no sexual attraction to anyone of any gender. It's much different from celibacy, as asexuals don't abstain from sex for whatever reason, they just have no interest in it. There's different sub-groups of asexuality. Some asexuals experience sexual arousment but have no desire to act on those feelings. Asexuals can still have relationships just without sexual interaction.
Asexuality us when you can like someone romantically and be in a relationship, but you don't feel sexually attracted to them.

Asexuality is when a person has no attraction towards anyone. They don't like boys or girls. Instead the prefer to be in a solo relationship.
Asexuality means that you don't have sexual attraction or sexual feeling towards others. You can still fall in love with people or find them attractive, you just don't have any sexual feelings towards them. :) Some enjoy physical touch (ex: kissing, cuddling, holding hands, ect.) but others may not be as touchy-feely. It all depends on the asexual:)
Asexuality means not being attracted, sexually, to any man or woman. People who are asexual can still fall in love, be romantically attracted to others, and participate actively in a romantic relationship, but they lack a sexual attraction to the person that they love.
First of all, asexuality means that you don't experience sexual attraction to anyone. You don't look at someone and go, "oh, I would really love to sleep with this person". It doesn't mean that you don't fall in love with people; it doesn't mean that you don't want to be intimate with them. Asexuality doesn't mean that you don't enjoy sex, it's just that you lack the initial attraction part.
But, asexuality is also an umbrella term which encloses such things as demisexuality (not experiencing sexual attraction until an emotional bond is formed) and many others. It's a broad spectrum that many people will find themselves on. It's a legitimate orientation that is often met with negativity, as our society is majorly influenced by the "necessity" to have sex.
A sexuality is never experiencing sexual attraction. You never want to do anything sexual with anyone and have only romantic/platonic relationships, not sexual ones.
There are different aspects of asexuality, but the standard definition is not experiencing any sexual attraction towards anyone. Someone who is asexual might not be aromantic, so they can still have romantic attractions and be in relationships with people, but don't particularly like the idea of sexual intimacy.

Asexuality is the lack of sexual attraction, someone who is asexual does not experience sexual attraction, they can still experience romantic attraction. Asexuality is different then aromantic, aromantic means the lack of romantic attraction. Our romantic and sexual attraction are not always matching.
Asexuality is the lack of sexual attraction to anyone, or low or absent interest in sexual activity. It may be considered the lack of a sexual orientation, or one of the variations thereof, alongside heterosexuality, homosexuality and bisexuality.

Asexuality is a general non-attraction to either and both genders. There is nothing wrong with asexual people, they just have no desire to perform sexual activities with anyone and that it okay.
Asexuality, is having no sexual attraction to any gender. This does not mean that you cannot have and enjoy sex, but you're aren't attracted to anyone in a sexual way. This is in no way related to Romantics, which are being romantically attracted to a gender. (From an asexual themselves :) )
Asexuality is a sexual orientation which describes someone who has little or no sexual attraction to others. This does not mean they are not romantically attracted to people, their romantic orientation is not dependent on their sexual identity. So being asexual does not mean that you are not in a relationship and some asexual people choose to still have sex (this doesn't mean they are not asexual).
The most widely accepted definition of asexuality is the lack of sexual attraction to anyone. However, it is not uncommon for some people with low or absent interest in sex to also identify as asexual.
Someone who has no sexual interest towards anyone, or even a lack of interest or desire in performing sexual activity.
Asexuality is where an individual feels no sexual attraction to anyone. There is a spectrum within the asexual identity as well (I.e. demisexual). My girlfriend is ace.

Basically, it's the lack of sexual attraction. But that doesn't mean all asexual people have the same view on sex. Some enjoy having sex, even though they don't experience sexual attraction to other people. Some only feel grossed out by sex. People who only start to feel sexual attraction to a person after they have known them for a while and care for them are demi-sexual.
Asexuality basically means you can't feel sexual feeling for other people. It's also a type of cell reproduction.
someone that has no sexual drive whatsoever, without mattering if its boy, girl or anything in between
Asexuality is when you don't feel sexual attraction. You may feel romantic attraction, but not sexual.
