Femsexual

Femsexual, or femmesexual, is a sexual orientation describing an individual who is exclusively attracted to individuals with feminine genders or feminine gender presentations regardless of gender identity.

Because femsexual individuals may experience attraction to individuals regardless of gender identity, femsexual may be considered a microlabel of pansexual.

Femsexual may be similar to finsexual, which describes attraction to individuals who are feminine in nature (FIN), or to womasexual, which can describe attraction to women and female-aligned gender identities. It may be used as an alternative to gynesexual.

The spelling femmesexual may also be interpreted to describe attracted to femmes.

The masculine equivalent of femsexual is mascsexual. The neutral equivalent of femsexual is neusexual. The butch counterpart is butchsexual.
