Asexual ≠ Sex Repulsed
Asexual = No Sexual Attraction
There are ace folks who are sex repulsed but it isn’t the same thing. You can still have a sex drive without being sexually attracted to anyone. It’s definitely not the norm but one ace person I know will basically screw anyone because it’s all the same to her. While that’s a bit of an extreme example, there are plenty of sex positive ace folks out there. Personally I don’t feel sexual attraction but I still crave intimacy and sex is pretty intimate so it still fills that.

Honestly kinda brilliant for that woman, great way to find someone interested in her for something other than her body/looks.

shr could also be a sex positive asexual
asexuality technically only describes if one has sexual attraction. not if they like the pleasure that comes from the act itself (or the pleasure of the surrounding dynamic if they’re into kink)

Hey, that’s me you’ve described! I’m never horny but sex is so fascinating and disgusting (positive adjective) and neat. I have to legitimately schedule time with my partner and most of the time, we’re both just like “nah”
But when I dooooo do things, it’s… high-tech? I’ve got a very expensive collection of high-quality toys of every sort and make it quite the experience for my partner, which brings me immense pleasure to do. I’m down to do pretty much anything, barring (non-CNC) nonconsent the hyper-gross stuff like poo and vom. Also mainstream, highly produced porn turns me off immensely but can be fun/funny to watch. It’s so… horribly fake, it’s the unsexiest thing. But there’s some bangers out there (lifeguard lady, lemons, but I poop from there, in front of my salad… I’d love more doozies if anyone reading this has any)
I also like to cum, I suppose:
