Have you ever noticed that a couple attracts you more than any individual in particular? If so, you may have heard of a new concept - symbiosexuality. This term, mentioned in a recent study published in the Archives of Sexual Behavior, describes an attraction to the energy and connection between people in a relationship, rather than to specific individuals.
What is symbiosexuality?
Symbiosexuality is different from other sexualities, such as bisexuality or pansexuality, which focus on attraction to individuals regardless of gender. Instead, it relates to an attraction to the dynamics and synergy between two or more people in an existing relationship.
According to researcher Sally W. Johnston, symbiosexuality is a form of attraction to "the energy, multiple dimensions, and strength that is created between people in a relationship." This phenomenon has been observed in people of different ages, genders and backgrounds.
Signs that may indicate you are symbiosexual:
1. The energy and harmony of couples
You are attracted to the energy and connection that a couple shares. When you see them interacting, it's their harmony that draws you in, more than any individual feature.
2. Charisma as a couple
You don't care about the individual characteristics of the people in the couple; it's the way they complement each other that you find fascinating.
3. The Multiple Dimensions of Relationship
Feel drawn to the complexity that is created by the shared experiences and emotions between partners in a relationship.
4. The power and strength of the connection
You are attracted to the power that the couple creates as a unit - whether it is through mutual support, shared goals, or their compatibility.
5. Relationship Quality
A healthy and respectful relationship between two people is extremely attractive to you. You like the idea of ??good communication and mutual care.
6. Aesthetic appearance as a couple
You are attracted to the way a couple looks together. Sometimes, it's just their aesthetic as a couple that turns you on.
7. Games and their fun dynamic
You find pleasure in games and the energy that comes with relationships with more than two people, especially when the chemistry between the couple is strong.
8. Gender and Sexual Freedom
You are attracted to couples who are not constrained by traditional gender or sexual norms. For you, the energy they share is more important than their gender.
Why does symbiosexuality matter?
Symbiosexuality is still a new and little-known concept, causing many people to misunderstand it. Accepting and understanding this phenomenon can help challenge traditional boundaries of sexuality.
