Should I write the optional essay about gender or sexuality?

Hello! I identify as asexual and I’m not sure if I should do the optional essay about that. I’m not really a super open person about it so I don’t know how comfortable I really am sharing that (plus I honestly feel like it hasn’t really affected my life that much, there’s not really any outright discrimination against ace people), but I’m also not sure how much that could help me from some kind of diversity standpoint or something. Is it worth it to write that essay or will it not really affect my application that much?
