'''Aegosexual''' or '''anegosexual'''<ref>{{Archive|URL=2022.02.15-085945/https://www.kinkly.com/definition/17639/aegosexuality}}</ref>,
Some common aegosexual experiences include:
*
*Fantasizing about sex, but the aegosexual individual is not involved, they are only a disembodied observer viewing it from a third-individual perspective, and not from the first person.▼
*Fantasizing about sex, but:
▲*
**envisioning only other individuals, such as celebrities
**it involves generic, faceless individuals, not specific individuals.
**it is seen through the perspective of another individual rather than as one's actual self.
**only imagining oneself, and no other individuals.
**it is idealized and unrealistic. Adding realistic elements to the fantasy makes the idea of sex less appealing or even repulsive.
*Perceiving someone as "hot" or recognizing someone as sexually attractive, yet not seeing the appeal of having sex with the individual in real life. The aegosexual individual may instead prefer to fantasize about them or admire them ([[miransexual]]).
*Enjoying erotic content but getting turned on by the situation or relationship dynamics in story lines rather than by one's attraction to the individuals.
Aegosexual may be similar to [[pseudosexual]], which describes an individual who experiences a non-sexual attraction which mimics sexual attraction, often by causing arousal or a [[Sex Drive|libido]] spike.
The [[Romantic Orientation|romantic]] equivalent is [[aegoromantic]].
==History==
The term autochorisexual was coined by Dr. Anthony Bogaert, a psychologist who specializes in human sexuality, in 2012<ref>{{Archive|URL=2022.02.15-090130/https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/22576251/}}</ref>. He classified it as a paraphilia since, at the time, [[Asexual|asexuality]] was considered a psychological disorder. This caused controversy
The term 'aegosexual' was coined by Tumblr user Sugar-And-Spite, in November 2014<ref>{{Archive|URL=2020.11.15-160220/https://sugar-and-spite.tumblr.com/post/101478696189/autochoris-is-a-bit-of-a-mouthful}}</ref>. The term is meant to have the same meaning as 'autochorisexual', but is formulated to make the word easier to pronounce and discard the orientation's original classification as a paraphilia.
Some aegosexuals were
*Liking the idea of sex, and/or enjoying sexual content, but not actually experiencing attraction or wanting to have sex with anybody.<ref>{{Archive|URL=2022.02.15-090258/https://kyethekoolguy.tumblr.com/post/161589828686/sexual-and-romantic-orientation-masterpost}}</ref>
*
*Feeling sexual attraction and desire only for situations that do not involve one's self.<ref>https://web.archive.org/web/20150905123406/https://pride-flags-for-us.tumblr.com/post/128023708253/is-there-an-autochrissexual-flag/</ref>
*Someone who feels sexual attraction, but does not want to participate in sex.<ref>{{Archive|URL=2022.02.15-090258/https://kyethekoolguy.tumblr.com/post/161589828686/sexual-and-romantic-orientation-masterpost}}</ref>
==Flag==
The aegosexual flag is nearly identical to the asexual flag, but it possesses a triangle with an inverted order of colors. The triangle represents a "reverse" of asexuality, as aegosexuals are likely to be initially perceived as sexual individuals. The color associations
An alternate flag was designed by an unnamed "member of the aegosexual community" on or before August 4, 2020. The color meanings are as follows:
*Purple represents community, likely coming from the asexual community;
*Gray represents the entire
*Teal represents a disconnection between the self and attraction;
*Black represents asexuality.

Aego- is derived from Latin words with the prefix "a-" meaning "without" and "ego" meaning "myself", making the whole word translate to "sexual without myself".
Anego- is more etymologically correct, using "an-", which comes before terms starting with vowel sounds, instead of "a-".<ref>{{Archive|URL=2022.02.15-090744/https://lgbta.fandom.com/wiki/Aegosexual?commentId=4400000000000227303&replyId=4400000000000785170}}</ref>
