Omnisexuality
attraction to all genders
Omnisexuality is a sexual orientation that describes a person that is attracted to all genders, but gender usually plays 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 bisexual umbrella. 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]
