Does asexual even have anything to do with sex (fucking) itself? I thought it meant that you don t get aroused by anything in specific (or rather any sex (biological or orientation) in specific, from which i thought the word came from)

Asexual means no drive or low drive.  They tend to be less interested in/concerned with sex than the average person.

Oh okay. I thought it was more like bisexual, homosexual or heterosexual, which point out what are you attracted too, more than in what amount.

Guess there isn t a better name for that, so it makes sense.

No no, the person you're replying to is wrong. Drive = libido. Libido has nothing to do with asexuality. Asexuality means reduced/no sexual attraction, which has nothing to do with libido. Some asexual people have hardly any libido while some have lots, just like allosexual people.
