Demisexual

Ad

Demisexual describes a sexual orientation in which sexual attraction usually develops only after a person has formed a trusting or emotionally meaningful bond with someone. Without such a connection, sexual attraction is often not experienced at all, only rarely, or only very weakly.

Demisexuality can be part of the asexual spectrum. The term describes only how sexual attraction is experienced and does not indicate whether a person experiences romantic attraction, what relationship style they prefer, or whether they want to be sexually active. Demisexual people may have different romantic orientations, relationship preferences, and personal boundaries.
