Masexual, or mansexual, is a sexual orientation describing exclusive attraction to men. This includes attraction to binary men and may also include attraction to male-aligned non-binary individuals.

Masexual does not specify the masexual individual's own gender identity. The term was coined this way intentionally so that non-binary individuals and those who did not want to specify their gender in their orientation label could have an alternative label to terms such as gay or straight.

Similar terms include androsexual, minsexual, mascic, viramoric, and uranic.

The feminine counterpart is womasexual.
