Gnostisexual

/ˈnästisɛkʃuəl/ or /ˈnästɪsɛkʃuəl/

A term that describes people who feel sexual or romantic attraction only after a person reveals their sexual identity. Additionally, they have a preference, and that can be one, multiple, or all sexual identities.

In that regard, there are three distinct kinds of gnostisexual people: monognostisexual for one sexual identity, polygnostisexual for multiple sexual identities, and pangnostisexual for all sexual identities.

Note: Pangnostisexual is the antonym to an agnostisexual person, a person who can only feel sexual or romantic attraction to people who do not reveal their sexual identity.

The prefix gnosti- is rooted in having knowledge. A gnostisexual is romantically or sexually attracted and excited to knowing a person's sexual preference. Some gnostisexuals like to know that they are an exception to someone's interests. Knowledge of someone's sexual identity is key to a gnostisexual.

Gnosticlit

Gnosticlit is a creative word that combines "gnostic" (someone who claims to have special knowledge) with "lit" (modern slang for exciting or impressive). It suggests someone who tries to come across as possessing deep knowledge or insights but is ultimately not genuine in their claims.
Despite his confident demeanor, John turned out to be nothing more than a gnosticlit, peppering his conversation with complex-sounding terms that masked his lack of true understanding.
