What does abrosexuality look like?
One of the most important things to understand about abrosexuality is that it doesn’t follow a single pattern. It looks different for everyone.
To help paint a clearer picture, Healthline offers a few examples of how abrosexuality might show up:
- Day-to-day shifts: You might feel exclusively attracted to men one day, and then wake up the next day feeling drawn only to women.
- Gradual changes: You could feel attracted to people of all genders for a while, and then notice that after a few weeks or months, you’re only feeling attraction toward one specific gender.
- Fluctuating attraction levels: You might go through a period where you experience little to no sexual attraction at all – sometimes referred to as asexual feelings—only to find that months later, your attraction returns and feels more active again, possibly toward different genders.
- Long-term evolution: You might identify as a straight man for years, only to later realize you’re developing attraction toward other men, adding new layers to your sense of identity.
These examples are just snapshots of possibilities. There’s no “one-size-fits-all” experience when it comes to being abrosexual, and that’s what makes this identity so unique and personal.
