'''Objectum Sexuality '''and '''Objectum Romanticism (OS/OR) '''often shorted to just '''Objectum''', sometimes also called '''Pygmaliosexual''', is the attraction to inanimate objects.

Objectum Sexuality and Objectum Romanticism (OS/OR) often shorted to just Objectum, sometimes also called Pygmaliosexual, is the attraction to inanimate objects. This attraction can be sexual, romantic, or both, it can also be a form of tertiary attraction. The objects that an objectum individual is attracted to are often called "beloved objects", these objects often have names and personalities to the objectum person. They may go on dates or do other romantic things with their beloved object.
Beloved objects can be "private objects", meaning objects that one owns, which can include: toys, cars/trucks, plants, musical instruments, articles of clothing, etc. They can also be "public objects", meaning objects that are something public or in a public space, which can include: buildings, bridges, machines, statues, fences, water, amusement park rides, etc. Objects do not have to be tangible and can also include things such as logos, letters, or concepts. Some objectum people are polyamorous, and are dedicated to many objects, while some are devoted to a single object. Objectum people can be attracted to people as well or they could be exclusively attracted to objects.
Some objectum people believe in animism; the idea that everything has a spirit or spiritual energy, including people, plants, animals, and objects. Objectum people will often talk to their beloved objects and many feel that the object talks back in its own way.
Objectum sexuality is different from a sexual paraphilia, as a paraphilia does not imply a devoted personal relationship, feeling mutual and reciprocal attraction, and usually does not include animistic beliefs. Dr. Ay Marsh, a sexologist who has studied OS people, has developed a spectrum that explains some of the differences between object fetishism and objectum orientation[1].
