'''Polysexuality''', also spelled '''plysexuality''' or '''polisexuality''', is the sexual attraction to many, but not necessarily all, genders. |
'''Polysexuality''', also spelled '''plysexuality''' or '''polisexuality''', is the sexual attraction to many, but not necessarily all, genders. For example, a polysexual person could be attracted to all genders except men, or a polysexual person could be attracted only to [[non-binary]] people, [[genderfluid]] people, and male-[[Gender Alignment|aligned]] people. Polysexual general implies that one is attracted to more than two genders, but one can be any number of genders anywhere between two genders to all genders besides one. Polysexual people may or may not have a preference and may or may not experience a difference between genders. |

Polysexuality should not be confused with [[Polyamorous|polyamory]], the capacity to be in a relationship with multiple people at once, nor should it be confused with being [[bisexual]], [[omnisexual]], or [[pansexual]]. The difference between polysexual and omnisexual or pansexual is that pansexuals and omnisexuals are attracted to all genders, while polysexuals are attracted to several genders, but not necessarily all. The difference between polysexual and bisexual usually comes down to individual preference, particularly where people may feel that different terms communicate their personal experience of attraction with more accuracy. |

The romantic equivalent to polysexual is [[polyromantic]]. |
