Interesting, I generally view social interactions as a form of compensation for what is lacking in the self. Sometimes sexually, sometimes in your relationships with friends or family. Those people who have low-status low power employment may come home and assert dominance in the bedroom or within the family structure overall. Those people who have a great deal of pressure may wish to come home and enjoy letting someone else take charge. Human beings tend to strive for internal balance I think.
Those people who strut around being 'manly' probably crave intimacy but are incapable of eliciting it effectively. I think what we're currently referring to as toxic masculinity (and to a lesser extent toxic femininity) is a result of simply casting our eyes over long-existing communication problems and considering them in the light of modern information sharing.
As for asexuality, it likely means you've found a hormonal equilibrium. The same as consensual couple who have matched effectively - but on your own. :o)
