Polysensual
-
[Sensual attraction] - having a desire to engage in sensual acts with a certain individual (kissing, cuddling, hugging, hand holding, etc). Its the desire to interact with others in a tactile, non-sexual way, such as through hugging or cuddling.
Different than sexual or romantic attraction in that youre not doing anything sexual or romantic, youre just being physically close to the person.
So a [POLYSENSUAL] is someone who is sensually attracted to many, but not all types of people (different from [pansensual], someone is is sensually attracted to all types of people regardless of sex or gender). This does not mean that youre sensually attracted to every person you meet. Polysensuals (or pansensuals or bisensuals) have standards, like anyone else. -
