==Omnisexuality vs. Pansexuality==
[[Pansexual|Pansexuality]] and omnisexuality
Omnisexual people were also attracted to all genders, much like pansexuals, but omnisexuals tended to feel a difference between genders. This manifested itself as a preference for certain gender(s) (though omnisexuals did not have to have a preference). Omnisexual people may also have felt as those the act of being attracted to certain gender(s) feels different from being attracted to other gender(s). They might have also found certain traits only attractive on certain genders.▼

==History==
The word omnisexuality appears as early at the 1959 beat poet [[wikipedia:Lawrence Lipton|Lawrence Lipton]]'s ''The Holy Barbarians'',<ref>https://archive.org/stream/holybarbarians001288mbp/holybarbarians001288mbp_djvu.txt</ref> but the first time it was described in the context of the current definition was in a 1984 text titled simply ''Sexual Choices: An Introduction to Human Sexuality''.<ref>https://books.google.com/books/about/Sexual_choices.html?id=xitHAAAAMAAJ</ref>This text described omnisexuality as "a state of attraction to all sexes", stating that some researchers believe that every individual is born omnisexual before developing their sexual attraction into the labels of homosexual, heterosexual, or other orientations.
