/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.

Jared is gnostisexual towards straight men, so when he found out Bobby was straight, he wanted to try to get with him.
