At Auction: Christie’s Sells a Trove of Elton John’s Treasures

Being Abrosexual

 What exactly does abrosexual mean? Abrosexual is a term that describes a kind of sexual fluidity. Someone who’s abrosexual finds that their sexual attraction shifts often: they might identify with the term ‘gay,’ and later feel attracted to people of all genders, and then feel little to no sexual attraction at all.Typically, abrosexual people experience fluctuations in terms of who they’re attracted to as well as how intense their attraction is. Being abrosexual isn’t about “changing your mind” or simply using a different label to describe your orientation.
