Why demi then? permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 3 child comments replies: [–] atomicorange@lemmy.world 3 points 2 months ago (2 children) I may have gotten my terms mixed up, but I think demi is reactive sexuality, someone who gets turned on by their partner getting turned on. Requires a bond / connection. Not really interested without it. I’m not super familiar with terms on that ace spectrum though. It’s somewhere on there. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] Shellofbiomatter@lemmus.org 2 points 2 months ago Fair, reactively getting turned on kinda fits under outside influence part. Though cant tell anything about the bond/connection aspect, as thats way too vague and complicated for me. permalink fedilink source parent [–] GripenGal@sh.itjust.works 1 point 2 months ago It's not reactive, it means that attraction is conditional on an emotional bond existing: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Demisexuality permalink fedilink source parent
