human sexuality
Reproductive behavior science
Human sexuality encompasses the full range of sexual feelings, attractions, behaviors, and identities that humans experience.
It includes physical desire and arousal, romantic attachment, sexual orientation, gender identity, and how people express themselves sexually.
The term often appears in educational contexts: a course on human sexuality, human sexuality research.
Unlike the simpler term sex, human sexuality emphasizes the psychological, social, and cultural dimensions alongside the biological.
