Idesexual is the attraction to individuals individually where gender is not a factor. The “idea” of an individual, their abstract qualities, character or, as many would describe, “personality", usually defined by a lack of physical preferences or not experiencing/comprehending gendered attraction. It differs from pansexual, as pansexual individuals may have preferences based on physical appearance, while still being able to be attracted to anyone regardless of gender (for example, they may prefer someone with blonde hair over someone with brown, without regarding their gender). Idesexual, however, is the attraction to someone despite gender or physical appearance.[1]
