Examples of Sexual Orientations
Sexual orientation encompasses a variety of identities based on the gender or sex a person is attracted to. Heterosexual (straight) individuals are attracted to people of a different gender or sex. Lesbian and gay individuals are attracted to people of the same gender or sex. Bisexual individuals experience attraction to their own gender as well as another gender. Pansexual individuals experience attraction regardless of sex, gender identity, or gender expression. Asexual individuals experience little or no sexual attraction.
