Line 1: '''Attraction''' is a type of feeling that sparks interest in a particular ~~person~~individual. Among some ~~people~~individuals, it is useful to think of attraction in terms of particular types or categories. Other ~~people~~individuals do not find this helpful, and some do not experience attraction at all (known as [[anattractional]]). Using or applying one of these concepts does not necessarily imply using all of the others. ==Common Subtypes== Line 32: Naming and differentiating between specific subtypes of attraction has been popularized by the asexual community in the early 2000s.<ref>[https://theacetheist.wordpress.com/2019/05/17/a-mini-history-of-different-types-of-attraction-in-the-ace-community/ A Mini History of Different Types of Attraction in the Ace Community]</ref> This is partly due to definitions of [[asexual]]ity that emphasized a lack of sexual attraction.<ref>[https://www.pillowfort.social/posts/717314 A Condensed History of Asexuals Arguing with Asexuals Over What Asexuality Is]</ref> As early as 2003, the FAQ page of the Asexual Visibility and Education Network mentioned that some asexual ~~people~~individuals may experience emotional or romantic attraction.<ref>[http://web.archive.org/web/20030225191733/http://www.asexuality.org/bigfaq.htm AVEN FAQ (archived from 2003)]</ref> Other subtypes, such as aesthetic and sensual, also developed around or before 2006.<ref>[http://wiki.asexuality.org/w/index.php?title=Attraction&oldid=1792 Attraction - AVENwiki (archived from 2006)]</ref>
