Aliusasexual



Not to be confused with Aliussexual or Allosexual.

Aliusasexual or Alloasexual is a sexual orientation on the asexual spectrum. It is the same as one being asexual but because of something, it feels as if it’s ‘another type’ (/different). Although they are asexual, the term doesn’t feel fully right to them. For example one may be asexual and have a high libido. This could make them feel uncomfortable calling themselves an asexual.

The prefix- alius/allo can be combined with demisexual, greysexual etc.

The romantic counterpart is aliusaromantic.
