释义与例句

n.
  1. 1.

    A graysexual person.

adj.
  1. 1.

    Intermediate between sexual and asexual; sometimes, but not usually, experiencing sexual attraction and desire.

    But then I remember: the whole ethos of sex-positivity is predicated on a belief that everyone—sexual, asexual, or gray-sexual; monogamous, polyamorous, or something in-between; LGBTQ or as hetero as the Romneys—is entitled to pleasurable and safe sex.

词源

Blend of gray + asexual, coined by user asexualityrocks in 2008 on the forums of the Asexual Visibility and Education Network about two years after the advent of gray-A and gray asexual.
