Amicussexual: Difference between revisions

'''Amicussexual''' is a [[sexuality]] on the [[asexual spectrum]]. It is a subcategorysubtype of [[demisexual]]ity where one only develops a [[sexual attraction]] to individuals whom they have a [[PlatonicAmical Attraction|amical]]/[[platonic]] [[Queerplatonic Relationship|relationship]] with. This is different from the standard definition of demisexuality because demisexual can apply to any sort of bond or long-term interaction. Some demisexual individuals may start experiencing attraction just by being in someone's presence repeatedly for extended periods, such as a classmate or co-worker. Demisexual individuals may also form a sexual relationship with someone because they anticipate the attraction coming and they do not mind non-attracted interactions. Amicussexual individuals can only develop [[attraction]] in a platonic or friendship situation. The [[romantic]] counterpart for this is [[amicusromantic]].
