Fictosexuality is sexual attraction towards fictional characters.[1][2][3][4][5] Romantic attraction towards fictional characters is called fictoromantic attraction.[4][6]
The term fictosexuality describes the desire to engage in sexual relationships with fictional characters, or the experience of desire for fictional sexual material distinct from desire for flesh-and-blood people.[1][7] Fictoromance is romantic attraction to fictional characters. The asexual community has used the term to describe people who experience sexual attraction to fictional characters and not to real people.[1][4][5]
Fictosexual individuals may face discrimination and marginalization due to human-oriented sexualism and humanogenderism.[8][9] As a result, social movements exist to promote the acceptance of fictosexuality and the relativization of human-oriented sexualism and humanogenderism. In 2019, the world's first advocacy group for fictosexuals was established in Taiwan.[7][9]
