'''Femsexual''', or '''femmesexual''', is a [[sexual orientation]] describing an individual who is exclusively [[attracted]] to individuals with [[Fiaspec|feminine genders]] or [[feminine]] [[gender presentation]]s regardless of [[gender identity]].
Because femsexual individuals may experience attraction to individuals regardless of gender identity, femsexual may be considered a [[microlabel]] of [[pansexual]].
Femsexual may be similar to [[finsexual]], which describes attraction to individuals who are [[Fingender|feminine in nature]] (FIN), or to [[womasexual]], which can describe attraction to [[women]] and female-[[aligned]] gender identities. It may be used as an alternative to [[gynesexual]].
The spelling femmesexual may also be interpreted to describe attracted to [[femme]]s.
The [[masculine]] equivalent of femsexual is [[mascsexual]]. The [[neutral]] equivalent of femsexual is [[neusexual]]. The [[butch]] counterpart is [[butchsexual]].
