Let's say aliens that are asexual came to earth and studies humans or other manuals.

Do you think these aliens would come up with similar/same ideas as sex as us?

I think they would, which would suggest it's something more innate to the biology rather than something society has told us.

I don’t understand. What does asexuality have to do with gender? That’s a sexuality.

I think they’d observe the same ideas we have about sex in regard to humans, yes, but they wouldn’t adopt the ideals because they’re not human.

Overall I’m really confused about your comment

I think they mean asexual reproduction. For the hypothetical to make sense, the person you responded to is trying to imagine an utterly alien observer whose judgement of human sexuality would not be influenced by their own alien sexual biology.
