Monosexuality is romantic or sexual attraction to members of one sex or gender only.[2] A monosexual person may identify as heterosexual (straight) or homosexual (gay/lesbian).[3] [4] In discussions of sexual orientation, the term is chiefly used in contrast to asexuality and plurisexuality (bisexuality or pansexuality).[5] It is sometimes considered derogatory or offensive by the people to whom it is applied, particularly gay men and lesbians.[3] Some have used the term "monosexual privilege", arguing that biphobia is different from homophobia.[6]
