3. Demisexual
Demisexual individuals experience sexual attraction only after forming a deep emotional connection with someone.

Queer is an inclusive term used to describe individuals whose sexual orientation or gender identity does not conform to traditional binary classifications. Their sexual orientation may be fluid and diverse.
About the EROS Test
The Erotic Response and Orientation Scale (EROS) was developed by psychologist Michael Storms to provide a more nuanced understanding of sexual orientation beyond binary perspectives.
The test measures attraction to males and females independently, allowing for a more accurate representation of the diversity of sexual orientation. Based on the scores in these dimensions, the test provides an interpretation of the user's sexual orientation.
This test is provided for educational purposes only and should not be used as a diagnostic tool. Sexual orientation is complex and personal, and this test provides just one perspective based on user responses.
