Examples of SEXUAL
1. He denied that he had a sexual relationship with her.
Asexuality (or nonsexuality)
[1][2][3]
is the lack of sexual attraction to anyone or low or absent interest insexual
activity.
[4][5][6]
It may be considered the lack of a sexual orientation, or one of the four types thereof,
alongside heterosexuality, homosexuality, and bisexuality.
[7][8][9]
A study in 2004 placed the prevalence of
asexuality at 1%.
[7][10]

Asexuality is distinct from abstention from sexual activity and from celibacy,
[11]
which are behavioral and
generally motivated by factors such as an individual's personal or religious beliefs;
[12]
sexual orientation, unlike
sexual behavior, is believed to be "enduring".
[13]
Some asexual people do engage in sexual activity despite
lacking a desire for sex or sexual attraction, due to a variety of reasons, such as a desire to please romantic
partners or a desire to have children.
[6]

Acceptance of asexuality as a sexual orientation and field of scientific research is still relatively new,
[4][6][8][14]
as
a growing body of research from both sociological and psychological perspectives has begun to
develop.
[6]
While some researchers assert that asexuality is a sexual orientation, other researchers
disagree.
[8][9]

Various asexual communities have started to form since the advent of the Internet and social media. The most
prolific and well-known of these communities is the Asexual Visibility and Education Network (AVEN), which
was founded in 2001 by David Jay.
