Anticarnal is a term under the ARCsexual umbrella for individuals who are sex-repulsed in all contexts. An anticarnal individual is repulsed by the concept of sex in general, both at the idea of engaging in sex themselves, and at the idea of sexual activity that does not involve them. Anticarnal can be used by asexuals, and by sex-repulsed allosexuals.
