    It's perfectly fine to not want it, the asexual community calls out this societal standard as "compulsory sexuality"

    Interesting. I wonder where getting off though fits in with the whole volcel asexual community as I still do that.

      Asexuality is about attraction, not about libido. Some ace people get themselves off regularly. Some don’t. There’s a lot of reasons to engage in sexual activity other than sexual attraction.

      as i understand asexuality they don't find any inherent contradiction there.

      to my understanding masturbation is still relatively common amongst asexual people
