Youre saying that subconsciously asexuals masturbate to something they're not consciously attracted to. In that case it must also be a possibility that you subconsciously masturbate to men. Does that mean it's unacceptable to call yourself straight?
How am I supposed to know? That is up to the individual if you ask me. Its not possible to really get inside soemone's head to figure that out. Also the line between straight and bisexual isn't really an exact science.
Hormones regulate sex drive, and everyone has sex hormones. So everyone has a sex drive, but what that drive is towards is tough and complicated to figure out. In my opinion of course! I also never claimed to know anything about what the attraction is or is not directed to, I am just saying that I don't think anybody has zero sex drive.
Ok dude no problem. I am guessing youre the same guy we argued about gays being less attractive before. although I think your views are a little narrow, you're respectable about it and I can see where youre coming from, so its an interesting discussion.
I just dont get why you don't think they should call themselves asexual. Also I think that sex drive is different from sexual feelings. Im sure asexuals still have sexual feelings, but they lack the drive to act on them with another person.
My views are narrow in some capacity, just like all of ours are. I have a higher sex drive than average, so I reckon that influences my belief against asexuality. I try not to be biased, but nobody is perfect. I am not sure that sexual feelings and sex drive are seperable. To me it is like a very weak sex drive will result in things that are only feelings, not urges. Like an urge as in you want to do something, you want to act on your feelings. And people with very low sex drives who we call asexual, just have such low sex drive that they never materialize outwardly into a sexual urge. But regardless of if we agree or not, I appreciate your respectfullness and for hearing me out.
Is it normal to think "asexuality" is totally not a thing?

Then what makes you think you can get inside an asexual's head to figure out what they are and aren't attracted to?
