???? that depends on the person. Sexuality has nothing to do with your libido and libidos are different for everyone.
For instance, since we're getting personal:
I consider myself grey-ace for the fact that I do want to have sex with my partner for emotional reasons, and because sex is enjoyable to me.
However, I am repulsed by sex outside of emotional attachment (i.e. i do not masturbate, i do not like sexual advances from anyone other than my current boyfriend, i am repulsed by pornographic material) and I have never thought anyone was "hot" or "Sexy" or anything outside of basic aesthetic attraction.
Despite having sex i am still asexual because i lack sexual attraction. Think of it this way: You can be gay and not want to have much sex, because you are sexually attracted to the same gender only. You can be straight because you are sexually attracted to the opposite gender. You can be pan because you are attracted to all genders. You are asexual if you do NOT have sexual attraction to anyone.
In all of those, you can have as much or as little sex as you need or want to, but you are your sexuality based on your own sexual attraction and nothing more.
ya it makes sense I basically said that. But thanks for going in depth and clarifying bc it really helped.
Basically if this helps you great, if it doesn't whatever. This thing isn't going to help everybody.
To get even more personal: for me sex is like food. I'm either repulsed by it or turned on by it. I either can't stomach it or want it bc I need it. I mean I know some people are addicted to food or eat for fun/pleasure even if they're not hungry. But.... I don't. I eat bc my body is like "you're hungry, eat!" and if I'm super hungry elementry school cafeteria food looks delicious!. If I'm kinda hungry, have an appetite, but not starving, I need to like have something attractive and delicious.

And if my mind is consumed with some sort of inspiration/special project/work, well I totally forget to eat altogether! It doesn't even cross my mind ;p
