[[File:Sexual attraction.png|thumb|The sexual attraction flag.]]'''Sexual attraction''' is a form of [[Physical Attraction|physical attraction]] to a individual based on a desire for sexual interaction (sexual intercourse, sexually touching/groping, etc.) with a particular individual. The attraction can be caused by or enhanced by things such as the physical qualities, clothing, movements, voice, or other qualities of a individual. It may commonly coincide with other forms of attraction such as [[Romantic Attraction|romantic attraction]], [[Aesthetic Attraction|aesthetic attraction]], or [[Sensual Attraction|sensual attraction]]. The gender(s) one does or does not feel sexual attraction to is typically the primary thing used in determining one's [[Sexual Orientation|sexual orientation]]. |

Sexual attraction should not be confused with libido/sex drive or arousal. Libido may cause someone to desire sexual interaction in general but it is not directed towards a particular individual. Sexual attraction is a desire for sexual interaction with someone in particular. |

Someone who regularly experiences sexual attraction would be [[allosexual]]. Someone who does not regularly experience sexual attraction may be [[asexual]] or otherwise [[Asexual Spectrum|ace-spec]]. Sexual attraction is sometimes associated with the color purple, but that is not entirely accurate since the choice of purple comes from the asexual flag representing the ace-spec community. A sexual crush may be called a smush or a lust, though the terms are not commonly used. |

The sexual attraction flag was coined by Amnisty on December 16th, 2020. The blue represents [[Sexual orientation|sexuality]], the purple represent the attraction to specific and/or all [[Gender|genders]]. The turquoise represents imagination and intimacy. The rainbow represents individuals who are attracted to the [[Gay|same gender]] or [[Multisexual|multiple genders]]. The black and greys represent individuals who are attracted to the opposite gender (such as [[straight]] or [[strayt]]) and those who are on the [[Asexual Spectrum|asexual]] or [[aromantic]] spectrums. The brown represents individuals of color, and the light tan represents those who are of lighter color. |
