    It doesn't work like that. They want to tell you that they are, hm, let's say, "undismorphoplesiotypical" and for you to not bat an eyelid, else you are "predudiced" against the very oppressed minority of undismorphoplesiotypical people.

    Who in this thread said it's not okay to ask questions?
    The OP implied that the questions on that list are bigoted.

    the invisibility of asexuals is more because there are so few asexual people, and asexuals have not been deprived of rights based on their (lack of) sexuality.
    The fact that asexuality is atypical in humans would make it even more likely that such an orientation would not sit well with cultural conventions, no?

    Also, am I correct in understanding your meaning to be that if social disapproval/ostracism of a social minority does not extend to the state getting involved, then that is some kind of test, threshold or qualifying character of whether the social minority under consideration deserves recognition of some unspecified kind?
