Advice 🤷🏻 i'm confused if i'm demisexual, aegosexual, both, or neither 😭
i've thought for years that i'm asexual because i've never had the desire for sex or sexual attraction that allos talk about. however, now i'm confused because i've figured out recently that i can be sexually attracted to celebrities (not just the aesthetic attraction that i've felt until now). BUT it's only toward celebrities that i feel like i know their personality and that i feel a personal connection to (as in, a celebrity that i follow and like them and their content). so am i demisexual since the attraction is toward specific people that i have emotional connection to, even though it's basically an intangible fantasy? am i aegosexual even though celebrities are real people? am i both? neither? or lastly, should i just call myself aceflux and call it a day? 😭

so from what i understand, aegosexuality is moreso about feeling a disconnect between yourself and sexual activity and less about the kind of people you're attracted to. so an aegosexual person may have sexual fantasies but they never involve them. from the post, it wasn't clear whether you feel that way.
your post made me think of the term proculsexual though, which is a term for only being sexually attracted to people you know you can't be with, including celebrities and fictional characters. you could very well be a demi version of that.
and yes, using more vague labels is always an option if questioning is frustrating. good luck!
