If it can be okay for asexual people to not want sex, maybe we
can make it okay for anyone to not want sex. This would be a world where being sexual is no longer mandated as a prerequisite of normalcy or intimacy and where nonsexual relationships are recognized and valued. It would be a world without sanctions against not wanting sex—where sex is no longer an obligation or a commodity that is owed. This would be a world where no level of sexual desire is pathological and where the social emphasis is on sexuality being self-affirming in whatever unique form it takes. When nobody is made to feel that they should want to want more sex, I suspect fewer people—of any sexual desire level—would be eager to increase their levels of sexual desire.
