I dunno, man. At times when I've been distracted, and I mean 100% distracted, I've lost all thought/desire for sex for weeks at a time. It wasn't repression, it was focus. I can say that during intense exam times, or when I'm deeply engrossed in programming or philosophy, I can definitely become an asexual person. It's not really an act of will-- it's really just that the biology gives way to the psychology of focus.
The rest of you can call it repression or whatever, but I have personal experience with this, and the way EP talks about it is more right than the way people are refusing to accept it.
Focus. Yes, that is exactly it. You totally get it.
I don't think anyone else will unless they'll actually experience that degree of control over their minds and bodies. That's too bad for them.
