Well, I'm actually asexual as well. I know from what I've read about it being a lack of libido (not a doctor, could be wrong) that causes it but I sort of grew into it, myself. I'm just not attracted to members of either gender nor does sex hold any real value for me. I've been trying to determine exactly which sexual orientation I thought I fit in. Maybe asexual's not the right word for me, I don't know.

As for acceptance, I don't know. I don't feel like it's all that important but that's just my opinion. People tend to have a hard time accepting what they don't understand. For me it's just not a big deal, they're my beliefs and who are they to say that mine are abnormal? The thing is, all sex is, is the way human beings reproduce. Nothing more. That kind of makes me mad, all of the associations people make with it.
