Sorry if this is the wrong community for this question (I don't know what would be the right community)

If someone was not romantically attracted to anyone, but still had the sexual desire for a particular gender to where they can masturbate to people from said gender, what type of sexuality would that be?

I don't think it's asexual. Maybe aro-ace?
