My personal quest towards understanding my own sexual orientation as the lexicon expands over time, has led me through bisexuality, pansexuality, sapiosexuality, demisexuality, and graysexuality. I recently settled on an orientation seemingly absent from our cultural lexicon: Sexuality centered on Divinity.
Nearly five decades into life, I am now only interested in sexual interactions that I deem sacred. I have been married, but am no longer and do not wish to ever remarry. Some people are able to experience sacred sex in marriage, and that is beautiful.
