A person who comes to an Asexual site for the first time may find the word sex-repulsed used. Asexuals often use this word with the implicit understanding that the other party will understand what it means. It does not take long for a person familiar with the roots of the language to figure it out. It is someone who finds sex and related acts repulsive.

Asexuals already know that they have varying attitudes towards the physical act of sex. Some Asexuals are not bothered by it, others enjoy it. The people who want nothing to do with it whatsoever are often described as repulsed. This is a rather simplistic definition that would take several pages to expand upon.
