Anthrosexual refers to someone who is attracted to humans regardless of their gender identity/expression. The term avoids referencing a particular sexual orientation or predilection towards a particular gender.
The difference between the anthrosexuality and pansexuality is that the prefix pan- means everything and anthro- means human, so the word anthrosexual is easier to understand for people who don't know either term and the harmful stereotypes can be avoided.
Etymology
Anthro- is an alternative form of anthropo- which comes from Greek and means human, humanoid and human-like.
Flag
The anthrosexual flag was designated by DeviantArt user SaffronMasalathekiwi and and was uploaded on February 20th, 2018.[1] The three stripes represent the following: marine blue for being attracted by the same gender, violet for being attracted by the opposite gender and white for being attracted by other genders.
