Article on asexuality....

What's interesting is that they define asexuality so narrowly. I think many people who identify as asexual would not define it as having no sexual interest in people, ever. I mean, that's true for some people, but not many.
What's also interesting is the 3% number given for the amount of gay people in the world. I realize that different groups tend to skew the stats, but I thought the accepted number was higher than just 3% of the population...?

I wonder if that works for ambidextriousness too? That most aren't really lefty or righty, but since everything is geared towards being righty most people find it easier to be right handed?
