Omnisexual

Short Definition

Omnisexual describes someone who experiences sexual attraction to people of all genders. Unlike pansexuality, which is often described as gender-blind or gender-neutral attraction, omnisexuality recognizes gender as something that can shape or color attraction. Some omnisexual people have noticeable preferences or find themselves more frequently drawn to certain genders, while others don’t.

Detailed Explanation

Omnisexual describes someone who experiences sexual attraction to people of all genders. Unlike pansexuality, which is often described as gender-blind or gender-neutral attraction, omnisexuality recognizes gender as something that can shape or color attraction. Some omnisexual people have noticeable preferences or find themselves more frequently drawn to certain genders, while others don’t. Both omnisexuality and pansexuality fall under the multisexual umbrella, identities that involve attraction to multiple genders. The difference between them is subtle and personal. A person may identify with one label, both, or shift between them depending on how they understand their attraction. Some feel strongly that one term fits them better, while others use them interchangeably.
