 The term is related to (but different than) [[omniasexual]] and [[apothisexual]], wherein individuals are always disinterested in sexual activities and do not ever experience sexual attraction.
+== Etymology ==
+From Greek "axiotheato", meaning attraction, and Greek "axios", meaning worthwhile/suitable.
 == History ==
 Axiosexual was coined by wikia user StarTigerJLN, a [[Greysexual|grayace]]/[[genderfluid]] graduate student at the University of Kansas, on January 20th of 2021, during a discussion of sex interested vs sex averse asexuals / graysexuals in the Facebook AVEN forum.
-== Etymology ==
-From Greek "axiotheato", meaning attraction, and Greek "axio", meaning worthwhile/suitable.
 == Controversy ==
-Debate quickly arose as to whether "axiosexuality" is equivalent to gray asexuality, especially "demisexuality". While overlap with demisexuality is possible or common, the axiosexual identity does not involve a requirement that a "bond" or "connection" exists in order for an attraction to manifest. Axiosexuality furthermore specifically includes aversion under certain circumstances as part of the identity itself.
