Greyasexual

Grey-asexual, often written as grey-asexual or gray-asexual, refers to a person who experiences sexual attraction infrequently, weakly, or only under limited circumstances. It places individuals on the asexual spectrum between asexuality and allosexuality, and it is primarily about patterns of sexual attraction rather than behavior or identity alone.

People who identify as grey-asexual may experience occasional sexual attraction, but not with the consistency or intensity common for many others. Some may find attraction arises only in specific contexts or with certain partners, while others may remain largely uninterested in sex. The experience can vary widely from person to person, and some may also have periods of no attraction at all.

Grey-asexual is part of the broader asexual spectrum, which includes identities such as asexual, demisexual, and others. Unlike demisexual, which is often described as requiring a strong emotional bond to feel sexual attraction, grey-asexual focuses more on the frequency and strength of attraction rather than a fixed condition about bonding.

There is no single way grey-asexual experiences manifest, and individuals may differ in arousal, fantasies, or sexual behavior. Relationships and sexual decisions are highly personal and may involve negotiation about boundaries, consent, and what forms of intimacy are comfortable. The term is used within communities as a descriptive label; it is not a medical diagnosis.

Prevalence is not well established, and there is limited formal research. As with other ace-spectrum identities, understanding evolves through personal accounts and community discussion.
