'''Womasexual''', or '''womansexual''', is a [[sexual orientation]] describing exclusive attraction to [[women]]. This includes attraction to [[binary]] women and may also include attraction to female-[[Gender Alignment|aligned]] [[non-binary]] individuals. |

Womasexual does not specify the womasexual individual's own gender identity. The term was coined this way intentionally so that non-binary individuals and those who did not want to specify their gender in their orientation label could have an alternative label to terms such as [[lesbian]] or [[straight]]. |

'''Womasexual''' or '''womansexual''' refers to the exclusive attraction to women. This certainly includes binary women, but it can also include woman-aligned [[Non-Binary|non-binary]] individuals depending on how one defines it for oneself. The term was made with non-binary people in mind so they do not have to use terms like "[[gay]]" or "[[straight]]," but binary people can also use it. |
