Hypersexuality is a term used to describe someone who has sexual desires that are stronger than an allosexual individual (however desire does not mean attraction, and one could be ace-spec and hypersexual at the same time.) Hypersexuality in of itself is not LGBTQ+, however it may effect how one perceives their sexuality, gender, or other identities.

Hypersexuality is classified as an Attractional Disorder (specifically a Sexual Disorder) and is classified as a neurodivergent experience.

Hypersexuality is not found on its own, and rather is found as a symptom of disorders, disabilities, trauma, and/or hormonal imbalances. Some causes of hypersexuality include, but are not limited to...

• Hypersexuality caused by sexual trauma. Ones mind may use intense sexual desires in order to cope with the past sexual suffering.
• Hypersexuality caused by OCD or other compulsive disorders. Ones mind may develop intense sexual desires along with other compulsive traits.

• Hypersexuality caused by drug or alcohol use.
• Hypersexuality caused by chemical imbalances in the brain.
