  Huh, I’ve only ever heard women describe themselves as sapiosexual

      Honestly I think you’re giving them too much credit to say they’re doing it to avoid messages. It’s the same weird virtue signalling in both cases. “Not like the other girls,” etc.

      It’s inventing a sexuality because you think it makes you sounds smart. Ooohh physical attraction is for losers, I’m only attracted to BRAINS. I can’t help but think these people would still shy away from an ugly genius

    Mexisexual if you like it spicy, corny, and fulfilling.

  That is the best description of sapiosexual I have ever heard

• Shellofbiomatter@lemmus.org ⁨14⁩ ⁨hours⁩ ago

  Under what does someone fall, who regularly forgets that sex exists, immune to flirting, needs external reminders/influence and effort to get in to the mood, cant wrap their head around attraction at all and completely hates the hand their dealt with?

    Autistic.

      Hey now! I may be autistic but I assure you I don’t ever forget sex exists and im horny like 90~95% of the time, but I am completely oblivious to flirting or interesting shown so that doesn’t get mitigated as much as I’d like

    • Shellofbiomatter@lemmus.org ⁨9⁩ ⁨hours⁩ ago

      Well yeah, little bit of that too. That’s what probably makes it more confusing.

  • Zron@lemmy.world ⁨14⁩ ⁨hours⁩ ago

    That would be asexual

      Ace, or graysexual

    • Shellofbiomatter@lemmus.org ⁨14⁩ ⁨hours⁩ ago

      Damnit, i always circle back to that one.

      source

      • captainlezbian@lemmy.world ⁨9⁩ ⁨hours⁩ ago

        Probably because the identities we circle back to often have merit even if we don’t like it (the number of years I kept finding stupid arguments that I wasn’t trans…)

        It sounds like you dislike this about yourself. You could check to see if there’s a medical issue causing extremely low libido. But fair warning, it may just result in you being horny and not finding anyone attractive.

    Pretty sure that’s demi.

    source

    • Shellofbiomatter@lemmus.org ⁨12⁩ ⁨hours⁩ ago

      Others are saying grey or ace. Why demi then?

      source

      • atomicorange@lemmy.world ⁨11⁩ ⁨hours⁩ ago

        I may have gotten my terms mixed up, but I think demi is reactive sexuality, someone who gets turned on by their partner getting turned on. Requires a bond / connection. Not really interested without it.

        I’m not super familiar with terms on that ace spectrum though. It’s somewhere on there.

  I’ve been Demisexual since I first watched Striptease as a teenager.

  I like to call it “millenial” vs “gen z” pan/bisexuality

  source

  • Mesophar@pawb.social ⁨22⁩ ⁨hours⁩ ago

    I’m pansexual, solidly a millennial, and started using the term nearly a decade and a half ago. Which was late to the game, since the term had been around for about a decade before that.

  Demisexual polyamorous transgender lesbian here - what queerness am I denying myself ;-;

  • BartyDeCanter@piefed.social ⁨15⁩ ⁨hours⁩ ago

    I’m not certain, but I wish you the best of luck in finding it. 😅
