Asexuality

How does asexuality work? Do asexuals have no sexual interest? Do they get horny but just don’t want to engage in coitus? Do they still feel romantic attraction, just not sexual attraction? Are asexuals only interested in themselves?

Personally, I like using the cake analogy.

Imagine sex as a cake.

Sexuality is a spectrum.

Most people like some kind of cake and seek it out. (Sexual)

Some people ONLY like vanilla cake and seek it out. (Heterosexual)

Some people ONLY like chocolate and seek it out. (Homosexual)

Some people like all kinds of cake and seek it out. (Bi/pansexual)

Some people don’t like any specific kind of cake, but might eat some sometimes. (Sex-interested asexuality)

Some people don’t like cake at all and will never have any. (Sex-repulsed asexuality)

Some people only like cake from a specific baker. (Demi-sexual)

Being horny in this case would be like craving sweets. A lot of people would want cake in that case, but some people with something else, like donuts (I guess donuts are masturbation or something lol).
