Catholics have believed in "asexuality" since the Church began flirting with celibacy. Many of the Catholics on this site believe that most priests are "asexual."

Denial aint a river in Egypt folks.

I never thought that the Catholic church ever pushed the idea that the clergy was asexual.

Rather, I think the idea was that the clergy are sexual beings (like everyone else) and they choose to sacrifice sexual activity and that aspect of their life (not so much their sexual instincts, which they can't meaningfully sacrifice) to pursue their religious calling.

Whether they in fact do sacrifice it is another matter, but that's just peripheral, really.
