[[File:Sexual attraction.png|thumb|The sexual attraction flag.]]'''Sexual attraction''' is a form of [[Physical Attraction|physical attraction]] to a person based on a desire for sexual interaction (sexual intercourse, sexually touching/groping, etc.) with a particular person. The attraction can be caused by or enhanced by things such as the physical qualities, clothing, movements, voice, or other qualities of a person. It may commonly coincide with other forms of attraction such as [[Romantic Attraction|romantic attraction]], [[Aesthetic Attraction|aesthetic attraction]], or [[Sensual Attraction|sensual attraction]]. The gender(s) one does or does not feel sexual attraction to is typically the primary thing used in determining one's [[Sexual Orientation|sexual orientation]].
Sexual attraction should not be confused with
Someone who regularly experiences sexual attraction would be [[allosexual]]. Someone who does not regularly experience sexual attraction may be [[asexual]] or otherwise [[Asexual Spectrum|ace-spec]]. Sexual attraction is sometimes associated with the color purple, but that is not entirely accurate since the choice of purple comes from the asexual flag representing the ace-spec community. A sexual crush may be called a smush or a lust, though the terms are commonly used.
