That some people are asexual does not invalidate the immense importance of sex. Likewise that some people are apathetic towards music doesn't render music any less important. Certainly none of those people who don't care about music are spending oodles of money on merch either.
- katbyte 5y agoyes, however I was responding to a comment which treated it as a universal thing for everyone with phrases like "It's something our soul needs" and pointing out that not everyone feels the same way they do.
- jjk166 5y agoWhich was in turn responding to a comment saying that music is a sideshow to selling pieces of plastic. Yes, not literally every single one of the 8 billion people on this planet will die should they go an extended period of time without music, but that's clearly not what the comment you were replying to meant. To claim the two statements are equally hyperbolic is absurd. You brought up asexuals as an example of how if you're sufficiently pedantic the need for sex is not really universal, and I was reaffirming that the comparison was apt.
