Asexuality is a sexual orientation defined by a lack of sexual attraction, where sexual attraction is a pull or allure toward a specific person in which you feel you want to partake in sexual activities with them specifically. It can also refer to a spectrum of sexual orientations for not experiencing sexual attraction; experiencing it in rare, fleeting, or confusing ways; or experiencing attraction only under specific circumstances. Though behavior does not determine orientation (as in, partaking in sexual activities does not invalidate someone's asexuality), there are some who experience sexual attraction regularly but have such a strong aversion to sex, they feel more comfortable identifying somewhere along the asexual spectrum.

Asexuality is a sexual orientation that is characterized by the lack of sexual attraction to anyone, regardless of gender or appearance or whatever. There are different "flavors", so to speak, of asexuality, including demisexuality (only experiencing sexual attraction sometimes), graysexuality (someone who has less-than-average levels of sexual attraction), and others. Asexuals can enjoy sex, can be neutral about it, or can think that it's gross. It all depends on the person. Asexuals also can enjoy watching porn/masturbating but they tend to think of it in a different way than most sexual people do.

It's an orientation that involves the lack of sexual attraction. If you don't experience sexual attraction at all and you aren't interested in having sex, it's probably your case. Asexual people of course can have a normal and happy life just like anyone else, and they can still have a fulfilling romantic relationship. It's important to be very honest about it with potential partner, so one day you can find one whose needs match yours.

The dictionary definition of asexuality is “the quality or characteristic of having no sexual feelings or desires.†However, there are different identities on the spectrum of asexuality besides identifying as asexual (often abbreviated to “aceâ€). Being aromantic (often abbreviated to “aroâ€) means you won’t be attracted romantically to everyone. Being gray-asexual or grayromantic just means that you are somewhere in the ace/aro zone. Demisexual means you require a strong emotional connection with someone to be attracted to them. It’s also important to keep in mind that your romantic orientation might be different than aromantic even if you are asexual.

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 is a term used to describe people who feel absolutely no sexual attractions, desires, or feelings. As some of them could be romantic, some of them are also aromantic (where you are not attracted to someone romantically). You can be both! These are sexualities, and as most of us know, sexuality isn't a choice.
