Asexuals ‘isolated and picked on’ for not having sex

Ireland’s asexuals — people who don’t experience sexual attraction — say they are isolated and picked on for not having sex.

It is claimed one percent of the global population is asexual, so, shockingly or not, there could be up to 45,000 people in Ireland with no interest in sex.

Known as ‘aces’, asexuals claim they have low-to-nil sexual urges, something that puts them out of sync with most of the population.
