If you think that the LGBTQ+ community is some lust thing where we're all just banging each other, then I'm afraid you've been misinformed.

While there are members of the LGBTQ+ community who can be more open about their more carnal desires, we aren't a community that is obsessed with intercourse.

Claiming or thinking that about the LGBTQ+ community is ignoring the existence of asexuality, which is an umbrella term, but the basics of it is that it influences an individual's ability to feel sexual and/or romantic attraction.

Generally speaking, most asexual people are not interested in having sex, because of the fact that they're asexual. This isn't because they haven't met the right person or anything, but instead because they simply have no interest in doing such a deed with anyone.

Asexuality also isn't the result of trauma the majority of the time. I have a friend who is asexual, and from what I can remember, she has never went through any kinds of experiences that might have influenced her sexuality. She simply isn't interested in intercourse.

Sexualities can also mix. There are many individuals who are gay, who are also asexual, often meaning that they want romantic relationships with people of the same gender as them, but they don't want to have sex with their romantic partner.

Personally speaking, I find my sexuality a bit difficult to pinpoint the exact name of. Back when I identified as the gender I was assigned at birth (I was assigned male at birth) I felt attracted to women...then I began feeling attracted to men, too, and I was able to say that I'm bisexual...but when I came out as being trans-feminine online, I began to no longer feel interested in women anymore, only feeling interested in men. So I can't exactly say that I'm bisexual anymore, I think...

Anyway, hope that clears things up for some people. I also hope that my explanation is accurate. Also if anyone can help me understand myself better with the explanation I gave of my own experiences, that would be appreciated.
