FindaTopDoc Explores Newly Popular Sexual Orientations
New York, NY (PRWEB) June 13, 2017 -- With any controversial topic, there comes backlash. And when people learn about or become exposed to something new, different and unfamiliar, they might not always be accepting or comfortable with it. Today, various sexual orientations are big topics of controversial conversation. This is especially because there has been a huge increase in the number of labels and sexual orientations that exist. Since it's Pride Month, FindaTopDoc decided to look into the controversy around newly popular sexual orientations.
Some people say sexual orientation is a choice. Others say it is a thing of nature than cannot be controlled. Currently, there are even labels that some people just say are unnecessary. One of these sexual orientations is sapiosexual. https://www.findatopdoc.com/Healthy-Living/What-Is-a-Sapiosexual
Sapiosexual
There has been backlash around this label, because many people think it is plain pointless. An article from Study Breaks declares that sapiosexual people are just arrogant. https://studybreaks.com/2017/05/15/sapiosexuality/ Being a sapiosexual or sapiophile means that the person is attracted to intelligence above all other qualities, including characteristics like appearance and humor. Since most people do find intelligence attractive, they say sapiosexuality is a bogus sexual orientation. On the other hand, supporters of the sapiosexual label say it is a real sexual orientation, because these people are naturally focused on intelligence when being attracted to a partner. And while many people take intelligence into consideration, those who are not sapiosexuals are attracted to more qualities than just intelligence.
Demisexual
Another controversial sexual orientation that people say is an unnecessary label is demisexual. https://www.findatopdoc.com/Healthy-Living/What-Does-Demisexual-Mean
A person who is labeled a demisexual is someone who is not sexually attracted to another person unless an emotional bond has been formed. Once there is a deeper relationship, then a demisexual feels sexual attraction. Those who are opposed to the demisexual label believe it is redundant, because many people don't feel sexually attracted to another person until there is an established connection. "So why is there a need to label it?" they question.
Pansexual
Sexual orientations can even be confusing, because there are some that are difficult to distinguish from others. Pansexual is one of these. https://www.findatopdoc.com/Healthy-Living/What-Is-Pansexual
Pansexuals are often confused for bisexuals, because they are both attracted to males and females. What is specific to the pansexual orientation is that these people do not take gender into consideration at all when choosing a partner. Pansexual people can be attracted to males, females, transgenders, and more. A pansexual is simply attracted to another person based on personality, and does not let gender constrict sexual relationships.
Now, sapiosexual, demisexual and pansexual are even listed as orientation options to choose from on dating sites like OkCupid. For more about sexual orientations, please visit findatopdoc.com.
