'''Abrosexual''' refers to an individual whose sexuality is changing or fluid. One can change between any sexualities, whether is be [[monosexual]], [[multisexual]], [[allosexual]] or [[asexual]] spectrum, etc. The gender(s) one is attracted to typically change, and the intensity of the attraction or the way one feels attraction may change as well. For example, someone could be [[gay]] one day, then be [[asexual]] the next, then [[polysexual]] the next. For some the changes may be erratic and for others they may be regular. Some abrosexual people may be fluid between all or a large number of sexualities, while others may only be fluid between a few. Because of their inconsistent attraction, some abrosexual people may not feel compelled to seek out a relationship or may prefer a [[wavership]]. |
