Asexuality is a sexual orientation characterized by little or no sexual attraction toward others. It is not a disorder, nor a deficiency, nor the result of a block to be “cured”: it is a way of being in its own right. Asexual people can fully feel love, form emotional relationships, be in a couple and, for some, have a sex life. Asexuality covers a spectrum of varied experiences. Like any orientation, it is lived in a unique way and deserves to be welcomed with respect and without judgment.
