Hemi-Pansexual, also known as Media-Pansexual, is a term for those who are pansexual and may experience less attraction to one or more genders they are attracted to. Hemi-pansexual individuals may or may not be willing to have feelings for, or a relationship with, genders they are less attracted to, and might have visualized themselves in a relationship with individuals of that/those gender(s). However, one does not need to experience these feelings to be hemi-pansexual.
Reasons as to why someone may identity as hemi-pansexual may include fear, discomfort, or any other feeling that can cause one to feel hesitant to be in a relationship with/have feelings for said gender(s). The experience with fear and/or discomfort varies depending on the individual, and it might not be the primary reason as to why one identifies this way. Possible causes can be anything, from home environment to dysphoria or trauma; however, one can be hemi-pansexual without any of these being a reason for that. Some may identity as hemi-pansexual for labels/terms, because not everyone is comfortable with labels such as, "pan with a preference," "panromantic/omniromantic," "omnisexual," etc.
This term is inclusive and can be used as alternative to "pan with a preference” or “pancurious.” It can combined with any other term if wanted by the individual.
The bisexual counterpart is hemi-bisexual.
