Sapiosexuality can also describe being attracted to the mind, irrespective of gender. This is similar to [[Pansexual|pansexuality]], but in this case, one specifically finds intelligence or intellectual beauty to be the main source of attraction. |

| ⚫ | Sapiosexuality was originally defined as when one finds intelligence sexually attractive or arousing, or finds intelligence to be the most attractive attribute in a person.
