Asexuality and sterility does the same thing.

No it does not.

I am pretty sure a fair amount of people in Vietnam don't even know such a law was passed/changed, and even if they did I doubt all of them would really care.

Asexuality means a lack of or severely diminished sex drive, and sterility means infertility. Not the same thing, not even close.

Yet another example of the complete lack of understanding of Asexuality and it's forms.

First off, so what? Second off, no they won't? Asexuals aren't incapable of breeding, they just don't have as strong a sex drive. Many still raise families, have sex, etc. Your ignorance is astounding.

Especially considering you seem to think sex drive and the desire to reproduce are the same thing.

In capitalism, you pretty much have a 50/50 chance of being rich or poor. In communism, it's 1/99. What makes people think they have the luck/skill to become the 1% if they can't even succeed in a 50/50 society???

I don't really see any rightists or conservatives arguing. Do you ?

And yes, my political view is "far-right" so to speak.
