'''Anuafsexual''' ''(pronounced on-off sexual)'' is a [[Sexual orientation|sexuality]] in which one is exclusively or near exclusively attracted to [[Faunagender|faunagenders]], animalistic [[otherkin]] or [[Kingender|kingenders]], and/or fictional characters with animalistic personalities and/or features. It can fall under [[Fictosexual|fictisexuality]], but does not have to. It could be the attraction to [[Multisexual|multiple]] [[Faunagender|faunagenders]]/[[Otherkin|kintypes]], or just one. It encompasses/can encompass all [[Faunagender|faunagenders]]/[[Otherkin|animalistic kintypes]] except for felines, which is covered in [[nekosexual]]. It was created separately from nekosexual, due to feline-like identities being most common in media. If one is attracted to a certain faunagender/kintype, they would add that to the title. (Example: Anuafpup) |

The first anuafsexual has an unspecified meaning and unconfirmed creator. The second flag was coined by a user going by Arwen. It is a mix of the [[otherkin]] flag, [[kingender]] flag, [[faunagender]] flag, [[nekosexual]] flag, [[fictosexual]] flag, and the fourth [[animesexual|animatesexual]] flag. |

== Is anuafsexual LGBTQ+? == |

Anuafsexuality is often confused with a paraphillia, however, this is, by ''most'' definitions, an incorrect case. [https://www.merckmanuals.com/home/mental-health-disorders/sexuality-and-sexual-disorders/overview-of-paraphilias-and-paraphilic-disorders Paraphillias] are known as sexual disorders and harmful desires, often leading to the distress of the person experiencing them and/or those around them. Whether or not it is a paraphillia is up to debate, depending on ones definition for such. |
|||
Some people also confuse it for a fetish, however a fetish is typically when ones sexual arousal comes from a body part, item of clothing, or an object at an unnatural degree. Anuafsexuality is simply attraction to animal-like individuals, regardless of how they look, and usually does not come in an unnatural degree of attraction. |
|||
Anuafsexuality does not usually cause harm, as it does not influence or promote any harmful or dangerous acts, and is simply a desire/attraction to one who either does not exist outside of fiction, or has an animal-related gender or kintype. In ''some'' cases, one who is ficto-anuafsexual may feel levels of distress due to being unable to have sexual feelings for people in reality, however this does not mean that everyone who is ficto-anuafsexual feels this way, nor does it mean ficto-anuafsexuality is bad. |
|||
Anuafsexual, due to being a sexual minority that does not cause harm, as well as being [[Asexual Spectrum|ace-spec]], would fall under the LGBTQ+ umbrella. |
