This can be considered a subset to abrosexual and/or aceflux. The romantic counterpart is somniromantic.

 * Being attracted to men in your dreams, but holding no attraction to them when youre awake.
 * Being pansexual when undersleeping.
 * Being lesbian when oversleeping.

A term for ace-spec individuals, which falls under this umbrella, is somniosexual.

History
Sleepsexual was original coined by a vandal who started attacking other identities, but was reclaimed by a user going by Amnisty on December 8th, 2020. It was given the alternate titles somnisexual and dreasexual, in order to sound better.

Etymology
The drea in dreasexual was pulled from the word dream due to the nature of this sexuality and how it may relate to dreams. Somnisexual was pulled from the word somni, which means sleep.
