There is no language that doesn't sometimes change meanings of words or add meanings.

True, but they still had changed while in use.
Also we're not really talking about dead languages.

It seems that, "lacking interest or desire for sex", as part of the definition for asexual is covered in these three dictionaries as well.

I guess that is why the act of reproduction without sexual intercourse is called "asexual reproduction". It helps to narrow down what sort of asexuality one is talking about.

just the usual conversation on whether or not anyone can reproduce without sexual intercourse. You know, I was reading an article on how a group of scientists conducted an experiment with human sperm. They were able to turn the sperm into an egg. That is very interesting.

Reproduction without sexual intercourse already happens In-vitro fertilisation is all about.

Oh and before you say "well the guys have to jack off", they don't have to - Surgical Sperm Retrieval.

Well cells do it because being Asexual means you have a vast speed in cell divison. So if you have no sexual organs then the only thing you could do is make a copy of you then die and then it all starts over again.
If you dont want to have sex... well I guess that does not have a name.

Language evolves.

In this case, Language evolved because a whole bunch of idiots misused a word because they were idiots and now it's in the dictionary and on wikipedia.

We need to stop this by mis-misusing it right back in their friggin' stupid faces.

That reminds me. According to wikipedia, The New Oxford American Dictionary named the word "Tase/Taze" as one of the "2007 New Words of the Year" after "Don't tase me bro!" went viral.

Food for thought.

I hope you never say "dove" instead of "dived" or "snuck" instead of "sneaked"! Those words also came about the same way, when people just started using them because it sounded right. In the context of sexuality, when people say things like heterosexual, homosexual, pansexual, and so on, it makes sense to say asexual when you want to describe someone who doesn't desire sex. And when a use becomes popular enough, it becomes acceptable.

I'm sure we'll be shaking our fists at young kids misusing words all the time when we're old.

Yeah, except those words aren't retarded.

Also: GET OFF MY LAWN! *shakes fist*

also #2: While were at it, people need to go back to using the real definition for agnostic.

It doesn't mean something between atheist and theist.

I'm not perverted. Just a very cynical person hiding in a bat costume.
