Detailed Explanation
Neosexual is used as a general and generic term for any non-standard sexual orientation, with "standard sexual orientation" generally based solely off gender attraction (i.e. heterosexual, homosexual, bisexual, pansexual, asexual, etc.).
Some examples of neosexualities include:
- Abrosexual - Those who experience a fluid/fluctuating sexual attraction.
- Demisexual - Those who rely on a romantic connection to form a sexual interest in someone.
- Homoflexible or Heteroflexible - Primarily identifying as homo/heterosexual, but with certain exceptions, which can vary.
- Skoliosexual - A sexual attraction specifically to transgender or nonbinary people.
Neosexualities can sometimes be as much an expression of sexual and gender revolution and acceptance as they are a simple explanation of gender attraction.
