IIRC, it's been stated a few times in interviews with the creators, and BC said that he had interpreted Sherlock as asexual and played him as such. (If I'm mistaken, please tell me, but I'm fairly sure that's correct.)

For some, it's also a holdover from the ACD stories to an extent, where Watson said at the beginning of A Scandal in Bohemia that Holmes was "the most perfect reasoning and observing machine that the world has seen, but as a lover... would have placed himself in a false position" and that "he never spoke of the softer passions, save with a gibe and a sneer".

I'm pretty sure you're right about the interview, but that does get into the whole idea that BC is not asexual, so how does he know how an asexual person acts? Hence the varied interpretations.

Also, those lines you have read more like a cynic who scorns love than someone who's asexual, at least to me. Again, different interpretations, which is OK. I'm not sure why everyone gets up in arms every time the subject comes up.
