Quiz: Am I Polysexual?

Last Updated 22.01.26

○ DISCLAIMER

This quiz is for entertainment only and cannot determine your sexuality or gender identity. It is not a diagnostic tool and shouldn't guide major life decisions. For genuine support with identity questions, please consult qualified LGBTQ+-friendly professionals. Your self-discovery journey is uniquely yours.

If you’ve ever felt attracted to people of multiple genders but not all of them equally, this polysexual quiz might help clarify your orientation. Polysexuality describes attraction to several – but not all – genders, making it distinct from both monosexual orientations and pan- or omnisexuality. Think of it like standing in an art gallery where you’re drawn to specific types of artwork rather than everything on display: you might find yourself attracted to women, non-binary people, and genderfluid individuals, but not men, for instance. This selective multi-gender attraction isn’t indecision or experimentation – it’s a stable orientation with its own unique pattern.

Our quiz explores key markers of polysexuality: whether your attraction spans multiple genders with varying intensities, if gender presentation plays a role in who attracts you, and whether you clearly recognize which genders don’t spark your interest. Many polysexual people describe different types of attraction to different genders – perhaps romantic feelings toward one gender and sexual attraction toward another. Unlike pansexuals who experience gender-blind attraction, polysexuals find that gender matters in shaping their desires, though not in a binary way.

Taking this quiz can help you understand your attraction patterns and find language that fits your experience, whether that’s polysexual, bisexual, omnisexual, or another identity entirely.
