Demisexual
IdentityOnly experiencing sexual attraction after an emotional bond has formed.
What it means
Demisexual describes a person who doesn't feel sexual attraction unless they've developed a strong emotional connection first. It falls under the asexual spectrum. Demisexuality is distinct from preference — it's not 'I prefer to wait,' it's 'attraction doesn't happen at all without that bond.'
