Autosexuality is the sexual orientation on the asexual spectrum defined as the sexual attraction primarily to oneself.[1][2][3][4] Autoromantic is the romantic equivalent.[1]
Research
[edit]Autosexuality has not been widely studied.[1] It is not to be confused with narcissism or narcissistic personality disorder,[3] which, according to the National Library of Medicine, may be the result of a genetic predisposition, such as rejection or excessive praise.[1][5] It is also not to be confused with autoeroticism as autosexual is considered a sexual orientation while autoeroticism is not.[1] According to clinical sexologist and sex and relationships therapist, Cyndi Darnell, “For folks who identify as autosexual, the current definition [and] the current understanding is that they are people who prefer a solo erotic practice, a solo pleasure practice, a self-touch practice – let's say masturbation over partnered sexual activities".[6] Autosexuality was discussed on the talk show, The View.[7]
