I actually have a friend who considers himself/herself asexual. He/she has identity issues, too, and isn't sure which sex he/she relates to more....which makes it really hard to refer to the person without lots of slashes, but it's really the only fair way to do it. He/she has no sex drive at all, with either gender, on top of not knowing where he/she quite fits with the rest of the world's clear cut gender definitions. In general, he/she doesn't have many social problems....lots of friends, easily speaks to people (even openly about the self-identity stuff), etc....but there's just no drive there at all.
