Quoiattraction, also known as Whatattraction, WTFattraction, or panquoi, is a term used to describe one who is questioning their attraction, or is confused about it. It is the general attraction version of quoiromantic. Quoiattractional experiences include:
- When one uses "quoi" labels to describe many or all types of attraction (for example, a quoisexual quoiromantic quoiaesthetic person)
- When one cannot tell if they experience attraction or not
- When one has difficuity differentiating between many or all types of attraction (someone who experiences this may also use the term nebulous attraction to describe their attraction)
- When one finds the concept of attraction to be inaccessible or nonsensical
- When one knows they experience attraction, but are unsure of what type of attraction it is
- When one has been questioning many or all orientations, and the questioning becomes a large part of the identities rather than paths to more stable identities
One does not have to have experienced all of these to identify with quoiattraction. To introduce oneself as identifying with this term, one should say "I identify with quoiattraction" or "I am quoiattractional" instead of "I am quoiattraction", as quoiattraction is a label used to describe one's experience with attraction, rather than an orientation or sexuality itself.
