the issue I have with it
is from a biological point of view, I can't see how it can be anything other than psychological. That doesn't make it any less real but I'm reluctant to see it classified in the same way as homo or heterosexuality.

i only know 1 asexual guy
he's never had sex and says he masturbates about once a year, usually when he's taken a lot of drugs. he would struggle to say whether he is gay or straight, but leans slightly more towards gay porn on his once a year extravaganza. i think he just has a reeeeeeeeally low sex drive/testosterone level?

oh, my friend's mate is dating an asexual girl. but i think she just doesn't fancy him.

Why not.
sex drive varies from person to person. I see no reason some people can't have non or nearly none, while others have tons.

s'only my opinion.
I think there's a world of difference between low sex drive and none, and I would suggest none is a psychological issue not a piece of base hardwiring like sexuality. but it ain't really my field.

i'd go the other way and assume none at all to be physical
but it's not mine either
