They are not even doing anything sexually. Why is their inaction offending people?

My guess Hate from ppl in horny jail and wish you could join in the fun or envy from ppl who have high sex drives and wish it was lower.

Also same with gay ppl, possible parents angry there is representation for their kids to identify with instead of just sucking it up and have babies. One of my roommates was very depressed asexual. Could see parents blame asexuallity for problem.
