Allosexuality is the ability to experience typical patterns of sexual attraction, in contrast with people on the asexual spectrum. For an individual who experiences sexual attraction, this identity is expressed as allosexual, sometimes shortened to allo; synonymous terms include zedsexual, or simply sexual.
The identity is general, and includes all the more specific identities of sexual attraction, such as heterosexual, gay, bisexual, or pansexual, among others. Allosexual identity does not imply any particular experiences, or frequency, of sexual attraction or sexual encounters.
