See part of the reason I find this so interesting is because it's so difficult to try and explain. With heterosexuality/homosexuality etc you could argue it's a result of your upbringing, your surroundings and how you've essentially been socialised into a certain sexual orientation (that's if you favour nurture over nature, which I do), but how do you explain asexuality? You can't not be nurtured, if that makes sense. So then how does it come about? In a sense I think it raises more questions about how people's sexual orientations are dictated than other sexualities do.
