"Sex is bad unless someone doesn't want to have it" narrative is very hypocritical

The color purple
at soccer training today we were talking about new sweatshirts and their colors and we decided to go with purple (our club colors). One of my team members joked and said we shouldn’t take the purple ones bc a coworker of hers called it „the color of sexual frustration“.
And my ace brain was like haha funny.

Do people actually like kissing?
Do people actually like kissing or is it just exaggerated?
I'm not trying to sound insensitive but I just don't understand the appeal. I can understand why alot people like sex (it feels nice?) But what do people get out of kissing?

A lot of people don't understand sexual attraction
Something I've realized is that people don't just misunderstand asexuality, they don't understand their own sexuality.
It usually comes up when I explain that I'm asexual but love sex. They first think that it's impossible and that I can't be a sexually active asexual. And then when I explain that I like having sex with people I like, they say that's just normal and I'm confusing myself.
When I try to explain that even if I have sex, I don't have sexual attraction, they try to tell me that it's "normal" (read allosexual). They're reasoning is that even allos won't have sex with everyone and thus I must be allo because I have sex with certain people.
When I ask them about their sexuality, they double down on not wanting to have sex with every person of their preferred gender. It's made me realize that attraction of all kinds are greatly misunderstood by all people.
I can't understand looking at a person and finding them sexually attractive. But an allo person also doesn't understand it, because it's become so intertwined with their romantic attractions.
Its even more clear when you try explaining demisexuality to people and allos say things like "i also wouldn't have sex with someone i just met, it's normal to wait for a relationship." They don't understand that sexual attraction isn't a default setting for some people, and that demis aren't "waiting" for a relationship, they just don't feel sexually attracted to anyone prior to a connection.
I don't know, its just an observation I've had that I thought might be interesting to other people.

I feel dumb for not wanting sex as a guy
I'm 23M and throughout my life I've only had a few crushes. I enjoy intimacy like cuddles and kisses more so than sex. I don't find anyone attractive and feel a bit broken and lost. It feels weird because I see a lot of beautiful faces everyday but I don't have any need to go out and do anything intimate with anyone.
I have no attraction to people in general but very occasionally does my sexual desires go up and I feel like wanting a partner. I on the rare chance get attached to someone, feel like it will never happen again. This is because I rarely feel comfortable even touching someone, hugging or cuddles as I consider it really intimate.
I've been told I'm quite attractive from both sexes on different occasions but I don't really see it or have the desire to be promiscuous. My friends have the approach of "get another" whereas I have trouble feeling comfortable with just "one". I might be interested in 1 woman a year if I'm lucky.
I want a relationship but I don't really care for sex. And I feel like I'm quite a rarity in a world that's so sexual. I don't watch porn or masturbate anymore, I just don't care for it.
I just want someone I can go home and vent to, maybe cuddle with and goof off with. I don't want sex and it honestly feels like when sex is involved it's not a genuine connection. Sex to me, even as a male, feels traumatic.
