For me, asexuality in general means a disinterest in sex with a side of possible repulsion.
Asexuality as applied to me means that I don't want to have penetrative sex, oral sex, or any sort of below the waist action in general, really. I'm fine with kissing and other mild messing about, but the thought of anything more isn't a pleasant one. It involves a lot of finding people attractive, but not wanting to sleep with them -- kind of the same way that you admire a Greek statue, really. You don't look at it and go, "Wow, I want to have sex with that." You think about how beautiful it is and for me, it's much the same with actual people.
It's nothing to do with clothing or attitude or modesty or anything like that. It's just the very real actuality of having a sex drive so low as to be non-existant.
