Agnosexual

  Agnosexual: What the Label Describes

Agnosexual (sometimes called ignosexual) refers to people who are disconnected from or confused about their sexual orientation. Instead of strongly identifying with a label like gay, straight, or bisexual, agnosexual individuals may feel uncertain, uninterested in defining themselves, or detached from sexual identity altogether.

Key Points

• Fluid or unclear: Their sexual identity may shift or remain undefined.

• Not the same as asexual: Agnosexuality is about uncertainty, while asexuality is about low or no sexual attraction.

• Exploration: Some agnosexual people later adopt another label, while others remain comfortable with ambiguity.

Why It Matters

Having language like agnosexual validates experiences of uncertainty. It helps people recognize that confusion or detachment from labels is a legitimate identity, not something “wrong.”
