    Polysexuality should not be confused with 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 being pansexual or omnisexual is that pansexuals and omnisexual are attracted to all gender, while polysexuals are attracted to multiple genders, but not 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.

    Flag

    The polysexual flag has three stripes, pink, representing attraction to women, green, representing attraction to non-binary people, and blue, representing attraction to men.

    The flag was created by user Samlin on Tumblr[1] in 2012. They posted a design to the blog fuckyeahpolysexuality with the caption, "I, as a poly individual, was greatly saddened that we don't have a flag...so I made one :P I made it similar to the bi and pan flags, since they're all in under the multisexual umbrella -Samlin".

    The flag has since been recognizable in the LGBTQ+ community as a symbol of polysexuality.

    The alternative poly flag was designed by an anonymous wiki user on October 21, 2020. It is designed to be easier on the eyes, while also maintaining most of the same meaning. In addition to the original stripe meanings, the lighter pink and blue stripes also represent a-spec ply individuals. The very light green (nearly white) stripes represents peace, as well as transgender poly individuals. It is intended to represent polyromantic individuals, but it can be used for polysexuality as well.

    Etymology

    The prefix poly- comes from the Greek prefix polus, meaning 'many'.[2]
