'''Sex-repulsed''' is a [[Sex Stances|sex stance]] that describes an individual who is repulsed by the act or concept of [[Sexual Attraction|sexual]] interaction. The term is commonly used by [[Asexual Spectrum|asexual spectrum]] individuals, but is not exclusive to this community or sexuality.
Sex-repulsed individuals may find sexual activity undesireable, uninteresting, uncomfortable, or generally unwanted. This is not the same thing as being [[asexual]] or [[Non-libidoist|lacking sex-drive]] (libido).
Some individuals may be repulsed by the idea of personally engaging in sexual activity, while feeling [[Sex-Favorable|favorable]] or [[Sex-Indifferent|indifferent]] towards sexual interaction that does not involve them or sexual interaction as a concept. The term [[Sex-Averse|sex-averse]] may be used to describe this experience.
It is important to note that being sex-repulsed is ''not'' the same as being sex negative. "Sex negativity", also called antisexualism, is a term that is often used by those who are hostile towards sexual behavior or sexuality<ref>https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Antisexualism</ref>. It is also often used by SWERFs and/or those against sex workers or the creation of sexual media (such as pornography.) People strongly repulsed by the general idea of sex can still be supportive of others' sexual freedoms.▼
Some individuals may be repulsed by certain sexual acts, while feeling favorable or indifferent towards other sexual acts. The term [[Sex-Ambivalent|sex-ambivalent]] may be used to describe this experience.
Sex-repusion isn't essentially related to sexophobia, genophobia, haphephobia, anthrophobia, misanthropy, social phobia, philemaphobia/philematophobia, philophobia or erotophobia.▼
Some individuals may feel repulsed towards sexual interaction due to trauma or exhaustion. The term [[Sex-Drained|sex-drained]] may be used to describe this experience.
