Personally I think you should just drop it. Labels like this are meaningless. Is it really that important to you that asexual people accept you as asexual?

I sort of feel that way, because I would like to be accepted by my own community.

Maybe they don't see you as belonging to their community. Or they might be more accepting if you didn't push this matter.

It could be, I think what it is really, is that they have a hard time believing that someone can be Asexual but not believe that they were born that way.
