    Demisexuals are characterized by a lack of sexual attraction toward any person unless they become deeply emotionally or romantically connected with a specific person or persons. The level of connection it takes for sexual desire to form is dependent on how close the relationship is rather than initial attraction. It is an orientation that is not chosen.
    Demisexuality does not refer to the active restraint or repression of sexual desires or actions.
    Demi- is a prefix meaning half. This is used to mean halfway between sexual and asexual. The term originated in the asexual community, specifically within the Asexual Visibility and Education Network (AVEN).

        A demisexual is neither primarily attracted to either [sex], nor do they primarily desire to have sex. This means that a romantic demisexual is someone who, in laymans terms, looks for personality over sex by nature.
        Primarily, the human will not be attracted to another human, but after being with another human romantically, feelings may begin to develop. This is further elaborated upon by Rabgers Model, which suggest human sexuality is created by four factors: Primary/Secondary Sexual attraction and Primary/Secondary Sexual desire.
        Demisexuality is (apparently) a form of [asexuality], related to [gray-a].

            people who are attracted to those that they are close with / after a personal bond is formed
            this is similar to [asexuality].
            also, this is not the same as what a normal relationship is. for example, a demisexual would feel uncomfortable on a blind date or being asked out by someone they dont know very well.

                  A decent human being that only engages in sexual activities with partners with whom they have an emotional love connection.
                  The term was invented by the [promiscuous] in order stigmatise people with normal sexual behaviors, in order to justify being a [slut] or a [manwhore].
                  This has made [promiscuity] the new normal, and diagnosed actual normal sexual behavior as some sort of disease that needs treatment.
