Sensual attraction - having a desire to engage in sensual acts with a certain individual (kissing, cuddling, hugging, hand holding, etc). It's the desire to interact with others in a tactile, non-sexual way, such as through hugging or cuddling.
Different than sexual or romantic attraction in that you're not doing anything sexual or romantic, you're just being physically close to the person.
So a POLYSENSUAL is someone who is sensually attracted to many, but not all types of people (different from pansensual, someone is is sensually attracted to all types of people regardless of sex or gender). This does not mean that you're sensually attracted to every person you meet. Polysensuals (or pansensuals or bisensuals) have standards, like anyone else.

I'm a polysensual, so I'm sensually attracted to many different types of people (but not everyone), like cis men or agender people or genderfluid people, etc. Bascically, I could cuddle with many different types of people (that I'm sensually attracted to).
