I find the meaning of "sexual" in "asexual" isn't clear.

When we think of sexuality as "being attracted to someone based on their biological sex", asexuality doesn't make sense. An asexual will find themselves falling in love and getting attracted to women-only, men-only or both sexes; which what the terms "straight," "lesbian," "gay," and "bi" have nicely covered.

Asexuality only makes sense when we talk about sexuality as "the feeling of necessity to have sex" (or the lack of it)... which is related to the popular definition of asexuality; and, in this case, doesn't fit with LGB narrative.
