[Infographic] What does Demisexuality Mean?
The difference between allosexuals and demisexuals is that allosexuals can choose to abstain from sexual relation/act on sexual attraction for the sake of knowing the partner better (this is for allosexuals who argue personality matters to them too)
Demisexuals however do not have any sexual attraction/sexual desires to hold back on or act upon
A demisexual is a person who does not experience sexual attraction unless they form a strong emotional connection with someone In general, demisexuals are not sexually attracted to anyone of any gender However, when a demisexual is emotionally connected to someone else, the demisexual (may) experience (s) sexual attraction and desire, but only towards the specific person or persons. It does not describe the gender (s) you are attracted to
So yes, you can be demisexual and bisexual (you can also be both demisexual and straight, or demisexual and gay, etc). Hey, i'm actually demisexual myself (or at least, im pretty sure i am), and i'm aware that demisexuality is in fact a sexuality, but when people say things like where do you draw the line between preference and sexuality? i genuinely don't know how to respond, what is the line/rules for something to be a sexuality? Nobody is trendchasing lgbt stuff, there's really little social advantage despite what some nerds believe
