Question

What does asexual mean?

When it comes to animals (real ones not furries) it means they can reproduce (make children) by themselves without a male mate having to fertilize (fuk) the female mate... In example: Snails... These creatures can reproduce with or without a mate... But when it comes to people... I think it means they love themselves and only themselves... Pretty much emos and introverts...

that just sounds like straight with extra steps

By that line of logic, bi is straight with extra steps

no, not really, but you're somewhat not wrong

Well heterosexuality (generally referred to as being straight) is sexual attraction to the opposite gender
Asexuality is no sexual attraction

You can be asexual and heteroromantic, but you can also be asexual and homoromantic, biromantic, etc.

That's my understanding, at least.

So Asexual does not necessarily mean straight with regards to romantic attraction.

you're making my head hurt please stop

No, not that, that's not what it means.
Asexual = not interested in sex. An asexual may be interested in marriage and romance, but not sex. That's what makes them asexual.

oh, so it's like normal and abnormal, similar to that tense?

Please elaborate.

Wait till you see this

Thanks for the art
