Demisexuality is a sexual orientation characterized by the experience of sexual attraction only after forming a strong emotional connection with someone. Unlike those who may feel attraction based on physical appearance or initial encounters, demisexual individuals typically require a deeper bond before they can experience sexual desire. This orientation falls under the broader umbrella of the asexual spectrum, which includes various identities related to sexual attraction. Demisexuality highlights the importance of emotional intimacy in relationships, emphasizing that for many, attraction is not solely based on physical factors but also on emotional closeness and trust.
