This term is primarily for asexual individuals who want to experiment or see if they like sex or can have sexual attraction, and is unrelated to gender-based attraction in orientation. If one were to be curious or go beyond eroscurious and wonder if they have feelings for a specific gender, they may be [[androcurious]], [[gynecurious]], or [[bicurious]] depending on the individual. (One can be questioning whether they are b+ as well in identity such as [[omnicurious]], [[polycurious]], and [[pancurious]].) |

Eroscurious is a blanket term for asexual individuals who are curious in experimenting or experiencing sex despite not feeling sexual attraction. Oftentimes, this is done from an attitude of wondering whether or not they like sex and have an orientation beyond asexual. This term is applied to those who are exploring/questioning whether they are greysexual.
