I did not comment on that at all. I commented on the statement that "we are sexual beings".

Needless to say, I agree that a human being who has a particular sexuality and is attracted to others is not disgusting in any way.

Edited to add: Asexuality and intermittent sexuality are only two of the reasons why people may not be sexual. But this is hitting much too close to home so I'd better stay away from any further discussion :-)
Thanks for this!
