Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Sexual orientation is a consistent pattern of emotional and sexual attraction based on biological sex, meaning it is not a choice but rather an inherent aspect of one's identity. It can include attraction to individuals of the same sex, opposite sex, or both, as well as a lack of sexual attraction (asexual). It is not solely based on one's preference for sexual activity.
