polysexual

A polysexual person is an individual who is attracted to multiple, but not all genders.

Polysexuality falls under the bisexual+ umbrella; and as a result, some bisexuals may further identify as polysexual. Such examples may be individuals who are attracted to nonbinary people and women/femininity, but not men/masculinity.

Within the bisexual+ umbrella, polysexual may describe the distinction between pansexual and non-pansexual bisexuals.
