For a romantic counterpart, see Sinndromantic.
Sinndsexual is an orientation in which one experiences attraction exclusively to their idea of what an individual is like. This attraction may fade as one learns more about the other individual, or one may not feel as attracted to the individual themselves, but still feel attraction to their conception of the individual. The term is derived from the Scots Gaelic word for 'vision'.[1]
History
