Are you a symbiosexual? The new sexual identity that everyone's talking about

Firstpost  

According to a new study, symbiosexuality is a new phenomenon that is increasingly becoming common. According to a new study conducted at Seattle University in the United States, people may get attracted romantically and sexually to a pre-existing couple more rather than an individual. Published in the Archives of Sexual Behaviour, the study explains this new form of sexuality is an “attraction to the energy, multidimensionality and power shared between people in relationships.” They are in “love” with the love between the two people in the relationship and want to immerse themselves in that love, the research said, as per NDTV. “I have this desire to be desired, and I seek a lot of validation, a lot of validation, and when there are multiple people like that, I feel like, oh, yes, yes, I’m doing things right,” Eden confessed, as per New York Post. “While the term only implies a willingness or interest to engage in dynamics with couples and not an attraction to their pre-existing relationship, the existence of the term both evidences symbiosexual attraction and discredits it.” “Evoking notions of myth and fetish, the term unicorn perpetuates invalidation of and discrimination against people who seek these dynamics whether they are motivated by symbiosexual attraction or not,” the paper continues.
