'''Pomosexual''' refers to someone who denies or does not fit any labels for a particular kind of attraction. A pomosexual person rejects, has an aversion to, or does not fit any sexual orientations such as [[gay]], [[straight]], [[asexual]] etc. This can either be because one finds that this arguably more typical way of describing sexual orientation ("I am attracted to x", "I like to romantically kiss x", or "I am repulsed by x") is not applicable to their sense of identity, or because one feels the current vocabulary within the LGBT+ community cannot accurately describe one's own sense of sexual orientation, or because one simply does not wish to describe their orientation. A pomosexual person may or may not feel sexual attraction, but is not interested in specifying whether they feel it, and to whom. They do not want or need a specific label.▼
