Written also: greysexual
adj: sometimes having sexual attraction and/or feelings, but usually not. generally
asexual but perhaps capable of sexual desire under certain conditions, eg love or romance.
noun: person who identifies as graysexual
Whereas sexual orientation exists along a continuum of heterosexual,
bisexual and homosexual, sex drive also exists along a continuum. Some people (highly sexual) desire to have
sex with anyone they can; some people (strictly
asexual) have no sexual desires; graysexuals are predominantly asexual but capable of manifesting sexual desires under specific circumstances. This is not to be confused with an asexual that is satisfying a partner'
s sexual desires despite lacking sexual desire of their own.
"Look at all of these hot chicks!"
"Eh."
"Dude, are you
gay?"
"Nah, I'm graysexual. I can
see that there are plenty of hot chicks here, but that doesn't mean I want to have
sex with any of them."
