Omnisexual Pride Flag

Omnisexuality is literally attraction to people of all genders. It’s slightly different to pansexuality which is attraction to people regardless of their gender. But, of course, individuals may be both omnisexual and pansexual.

The pink shades, unsurprisingly, mean attraction to feminine people and the blue attraction to masculine people. In the center, the black stripe stands for other genders.

What Does It Mean to Be Omnisexual?

Being omnisexual means experiencing attraction to people of all genders, but with an awareness and recognition of gender. Unlike pansexuality, which emphasizes attraction regardless of gender, omnisexuality involves the potential for attraction to people of any gender, while still acknowledging and being conscious of gender differences. Omnisexual individuals can be attracted to people across the gender spectrum, and the recognition of gender may play a role in how attraction is experienced or expressed.
