The term is related to (but different than) [[omniasexual]] and [[apothisexual]], wherein individuals are always disinterested in sexual activities and do not ever experience sexual attraction. ▼
== Etymology ==
== History ==
Axiosexual was coined by wikia user StarTigerJLN, a [[Greysexual|grayace]]/[[genderfluid]] graduate student at the University of Kansas, on January 20th of 2021, during a discussion of sex interested vs sex averse asexuals / graysexuals in the Facebook AVEN forum.
==
The Axiosexual flag was designed by StarTigerJLN on January 20th of 2021. The black background is for disinterest in sexual engagement when unattracted, the orange stripe is for passionate attraction, and the rainbow star for solidarity with and potential for overlap with other orientations.
▲From Greek "axiotheato", meaning attraction, and Greek "axio", meaning worthwhile/suitable.
== Similar Terminology ==
After the identity's first use, debate immediately began about whether the term is equivalent to "demisexual". While overlap with demisexuality is possible or common, the axiosexual identity does not involve a requirement that a "bond" or "connection" exists in order for an attraction to manifest. Axiosexuality furthermore specifically includes aversion under certain circumstances as part of the identity itself. ▼
