Omnisexuality
attraction to all genders
Omnisexuality is a sexual orientation. A person who is omnisexual can be attracted to all genders. Gender will usually play a role in the person's attraction.[1][2] It can be seen as a form of multisexuality,[3][4] or non-monosexuality.[5][6]
Omnisexuality can be described as being under the umbrella of bisexuality. It is similar to, but distinctly different from pansexuality. Omnisexuality is the attraction to all genders, but gender will play a role in that attraction.[7]
An international survey conducted by Ipsos found that around 1% of the global population self-identify as pansexual or omnisexual, while in the United States, this proportion is estimated to be approximately 2%[8]
