Human sexuality is the capacity to have erotic experiences and responses. Human sexuality can also refer to the way one person is sexually attracted to another person of the opposite sex (heterosexuality), the same sex (homosexuality), or having both tendencies (bisexuality). The lack of sexual attraction is referred to as (asexuality). Human sexuality impacts cultural, political, legal and philosophical aspects of life, as well as it is widely connected to issues of morality, ethics, theology, spirituality, or religion. It is not, however, directly tied to gender.
