    That’s so strange. You’re just attracted to people’s body parts?

      That’s how it works for the vast majority of people.

      Not like personality doesn’t play a role. But certain body part combinations are a requirement.

          Not really, it’s pretty key to the propagation of the species to find certain genitals and sexual traits attractive. Those that don’t notice them or care about them are outliers in humanity.

              Yes, and that’s not a bad thing. Anyone outside of the average in a trait is an outlier. Being 7 feet tall makes one an outlier, being a genius makes one an outlier, etc…

              Not sure why you’re so offended.

            I’m asexual so this is very alien to me. I generally associate genitals with violence because of past trauma

      Is their preference really any more arbitrary than the preferences sapiosexuals or demisexuals have? It sounds like they probably have other traits that may make someone more or less attractive, they just have a minimum requirement for a certain body form for them to begin having attraction. That isn’t so different when compared to a sapiosexual who requires a high intellect before they can begin being more or less attracted based on other traits.

      TL;DR: All preferences are weird, no need to call anyone out on their specific ones :)

        I come from the planet of the ace, where nobody has sex and the masturbation doesn’t matter
