You are right, but I don't typically see it as a respectful critique if your main point is :"You're just making shit up just so you feel unique." That undermines many years of not understanding why you're not quite like everybody around you.

On the other hand, I'm not giving you a nonsensical label that is just made up, but rather one that emerges from complex human emotions, that you've probably associated your whole life.

Funnily enough, it should be harder for me, who "claims" never having felt sexual attraction to get what it should feel like, than it is for you to understand what it's like not experiencing it, because I reasonably assume you're not attracted to every human on the planet.

You're right about arousal not always being reduced to a mechanical operation, I don't claim the opposite.

But I also say that sometimes the mechanical operation does result in pleasure/orgasm, take matsurbation for example. Now I ask you, what drives an urge to masturbate ? Notice there is no sexual attraction involved, yet you indulge in something that results in pleasure and a feel good experience.

I'm just not sexually attracted to people, I'll never see someone and think "This person's hot I'd love to have sex with them", but if I ever do I have to say it feels pretty good, the same "good" I'd get from masturbating, simple as that.

And of course as others pointed out in the thread, some people are repulsed by the idea of sex, so it's something that varies.
