[Health & Sexuality Info](/health-info)# asexual

Also referred to as “ace,” asexuality is an umbrella term for anyone who experiences little to no sexual attraction toward other people of any gender. Unlike celibacy, which is a choice to abstain from sexual activity, asexuality is an intrinsic part of who someone is, just like other sexual orientations. More specific asexual identities include Aceflux, Demisexual, Fraysexual/Ignotasexual, Graysexual, and Lithosexual.
