Line 8:
It is important to note the difference between asexuality and celibacy/abstinence. Those who are abstinent or celibate are not necessarily sexual; they may still experience sexual attraction but they choose not to act on it for moral or religious reasons. Asexuals do not experience sexual attraction but they may or may not participate in sexual activities. Although some asexuals do not take part in sexual activities there are also many asexuals who do partake in sexual activities or are in sexual relationships. This could be for many reasons, such as, their own pleasure, the pleasure of a partner, or to have children. Some asexuals masturbate as well, as they still have a sex drive despite not feeling sexual attraction to anyone.
True natural asexuals are not to be conflated with unnatural
The two can be distinguished by the fact that natural asexuals have normal capacity for physical sexual pleasure, whereas SRI pseudo-asexuals have little or no capacity for physical sexual pleasure.

Asexuals can also be [[Sex Repulsed|sex-repulsed]] or [[Sex Indifferent|sex-indifferent]].
The term 'asexual' can also be used as an umbrella term to describe someone on the [[Asexual Spectrum|asexual spectrum]].
