Omnisexual

Disclaimer: People can experience identities in different ways. As such, people can identify with a label without exactly matching the definition because identities are fluid.

Omnisexual (often shortened to "omni") is a term used by people who experience sexual attraction to all genders, where gender plays some role in their attraction. Omnisexual people may or may not experience other sexual or romantic attractions, such as being on the asexual or aromantic spectrums, and can be any gender.

Some omnisexual people have preferences for particular genders (which may change over time), while others do not. For some omnisexual people, attraction can feel different depending on the gender of the person they are attracted to.

Some omnisexual people also use another label to describe their sexuality, while others only use omnisexual. Often, the terms bisexual, omnisexual, polysexual, and pansexual are confused with one another. The distinctions between the terms are frequently debated, so each person may define them differently. Ultimately, a person who experiences attraction to multiple genders chooses which label(s) to use based upon their personal preference.
