[[File:Touch-favorable.png|thumb|The touch-favorable flag]]'''Touch-favorable''' (or '''touch-positive''') is a term that is most commonly used by [[asensual]] and other [[Asensual Spectrum|asen-spec]] individuals to indicate that they enjoy [[Sensual Attraction|sensual]] activities, sensual relationships, or the concept of sensuality and tactility.
