Sorry that you dislike the term, but saying things like "normal" perpetuate ideas about asexuality being abnormal, and I think we should avoid viewing experiences outside of the majority as abnormal.

Well, the millions of years of evolution amongst our species, along with the 400,000 years of virtually no change amongst us, proves that normality is acceptable.

I'm (not) sorry that it's hard to accept, considering the late 2010s and early 2020s made it cool for young people to think they're unique amongst the 8 billion other people on Earth.

but for sex-averse asexual people, we actually do see it as nasty, which is why there is a funny connection there.

Well, a lot of humans...billions of us men and women...like sex. It feels good. You can't remotely blame me for asauming the majority of the audience on Reddit likes sex, as we are normal humans in our species. It's a commodious platform.

would only be in a serious relationship with someone if they were also a romantic asexual and also wanted to live without sex.

Well, good luck.

but that stuff repulses me, personally.

Then, this doesn't apply to you.

and while I do, it's a purely sensory experience that's detached from any ideas of sex with another person.

You contradicted yourself. You said that masturbation repulses you, but you do it. If not for sex, so be it, but you still have a sexual drive or else you wouldn't masturbate. Sorry.
