Not sure what you are asking. Like is there a comm where nobody ever talks about sex?
They probably mean a place they can talk about lives and experiences of asexual folks. In a word rife by sexuals (not sure this is the correct term) being asexual could be isolating.
idk if there's a term for this, but I assume OP feels alienated by the assumption that experiencing sexual attraction is the norm. Like heteronormativity but for sexuality in general, I suppose.
Allonormativity is what you're talking about. Amatonormativity is the assumptions related to romantic attraction/relationships.
See Chen's book Ace for a primer on asexuality https://www.angelachen.org/ace
