omnisexual
Desires all genders
Omnisexual describes attraction to people of all genders, with gender playing a role in that attraction.
The term distinguishes itself from pansexual, which implies gender-blindness.
An omnisexual person might be attracted to all genders but experience that attraction differently depending on gender: I'm omnisexual—I'm into everyone, but in different ways.
