autosexual (n, adj) sexual attraction to oneself

As an autosexual, Kendra fancied her own company more than that of others, opting to spend a night in with her vibrator.

When you step out of the shower each day, do you do a quick double-take in the mirror because you just look that good? Do you get bored when swiping through dating apps because no person could possibly surpass your own ability to satisfy yourself? Does a night alone with some silk sheets and a trusty vibe sound way better than any kind of hookup? If so, then you might be autosexual.

Autosexual describes an orientation in which a person is more attracted to themselves than anyone else. In other words, you give butterflies to yourself.

You might ask yourself, Does masturbating regularly make me an autosexual? Self-pleasure patterns are just one aspect of autosexuality. One only becomes an autosexual if they greatly prefer getting off with themselves to getting off with a partner. This isn’t a new phenomenon. There’s a whole contingent of men and women who enjoy jerking off more than partnered sex.

And, no, being an autosexual doesn’t mean you’re narcissistic or self-centered. It just means you love yourself and ultimately no one brings you more pleasure than you.
