About one percent of adults have absolutely no interest in sex, according to a new study, and that distinction is becoming one of pride among many asexuals.
-----------------------------------
It offered respondent a list of options. One read: "I have never felt sexually attracted to anyone at all." One percent said they agreed with the statement.
-------------------------------------------
New Scientist says such studies offer insights into sexuality, the results remain controversial. "The closest we have got to understanding human asexuals comes from studies -- mostly surveys - of people who report not have sex," it says.
---------------------------------------------
"If asexuality is indeed a form of sexual orientation, perhaps it will not be long before the issue of 'A' pride starts attracting more attention," New Scientist says.
----------------------------------------------
Activists have already started campaigning to promote awareness and acceptance of asexuality, it reports
--------------------------------------------
Among the items is a T-shirt with the slogan, "Asexuality: it's not just for amoebas anymore."
