	Attraction - AVENwiki
		Sexual attraction is a feeling that sexual people get that causes them to desire sexual contact with a specific other person.
		Sexual attraction is not the same thing as sex drive, although in sexuals the two often go together.
		It is possible to define aesthetic attraction as a subset of sensual attraction, since the act of observing a person's appearance or behaviour can be thought of as pleasure involving the sense of vision (or sometimes hearing).

		There is debate as to whether this is a sexual dysfunction or an actual sexual orientation; furthermore, there is disagreement over the exact definition of the word.
		The term is also sometimes used as a gender identity by those who believe their lack of sexual attraction places them outside the standard definitions of gender.
		This may be viewed as a form of sexual orientation in itself, although it is sometimes claimed that it is a psycho-sexual problem.

	Sexual attraction at AllExperts
		Sexual attraction, in species that reproduce sexually, is an attraction to other members of the same species for sexual or erotic activity.
		However, other examples of sexual attraction such as sexual fetishism or homosexuality do not seem to serve this purpose: until more is understood (and conclusively proven) about the nature and origins of human sexual orientation, the nature of sexual attraction cannot be fully understood.
		It is thought that sexual attractiveness of a man to some women and gay men, is somewhat determined by the height of the man. In modern culture it is usually an importance that the male be at least slightly taller than the female for a long term relationship to form.

		In species which reproduce sexually, sexual attractiveness to other members of the same species is an important survival factor.
		Often, there is some element of the animal's body which is adapted to be sexually attractive to the opposite sex: the bright plumage and crests of some species of birds, for example.
		Sexual attractiveness of a person to another person depends on both persons; to some extent there may be general agreement that a person is sexually attractive, but for the rest it is "a matter of taste".

	Sexual Attraction to Clients - The Human Therapist and the (Sometimes) Inhuman Training System
		Although the primary focus of this article is the presentation of data concerning therapists’ sexual attraction to their clients and the implications for education and training, the context within which this research was conducted should be noted.
		Sexually intimate behavior between therapists and their clients has emerged as an increasingly serious problem within the profession, as revealed by an examination of the records in three arenas—ethics cases, malpractice suits, and licensing board hearings.
		Even if sexual attraction to clients is not viewed as a therapeutic offense, the acknowledgment of the attraction—as in the case of Searles (1959/1965) mentioned in the introduction—is often associated with feelings of vulnerability and trepidation.

	The new rules for reckoning with sexual attraction in the workplace. (Site not responding. Last check: )
		But sexual attraction in the office is virtually inevitable for other reasons as well: The workplace is an ideal pre-screener, likely to throw us together with others our own age having similar socioeconomic and educational backgrounds, similar sets of values, and similar aspirations.
		The problem is not that sexual attraction inhabits the workplace, but that the options we traditionally give ourselves for recognizing that passion are far too limited.
		Sexual, romantic love has been and will be the many splendored thing, driven by a desire for fusion and physical intimacy and achieving that blurring of boundaries that takes place only in sex.

	An Explanation of the Circles of Sexuality
		The center of sensuality and attraction to others is in the brain, humans' most important "sex organ." The unexplained mechanism responsible for sexual attraction rests in the brain, not in the genitalia.
		Sexual orientation—Whether a person's primary attraction is to people of the other gender (heterosexuality) or to the same gender (homosexuality) or to both genders (bisexuality) defines his/her sexual orientation.
		Sexual intercourse is a behavior that may produce sexual pleasure that often culminates in orgasm in females and in males.

	Four Hot Signs of Attraction
		In todayâs society, beauty, physical attraction, and sexuality are all commonly misunderstood as some transcendent inevitable fact; falsely interlocking the three makes it seem doubly true that in order to initiate attraction between a man and a woman, both sexes should be beautiful to be sexual.
		This is because attraction is associated with the fact that the physical attributes motivate that part of the brain known as the âhypothalamusâ that will produce different kinds of reactions from the body such as sexual arousal, increased heart rate, and perspiration.
		Attraction is generally focused on imagery that is exclusively on the physical attributes of both men and women, where the society has created a very important role.

	Genetic sexual attraction
		Genetic sexual attraction (GSA) is sexual attraction between close relatives, such as a brother and sister, who first meet as adults.

	Teaching family therapists about sexual attraction in therapy Journal of Marital and Family Therapy - Find Articles
		Given the conjoint format of MFT sessions, one might assume that there is less opportunity for sexual attraction to develop between the client (a couple or family) and therapist than in other types of therapy (Nickell et al., 1995).
		Considering how harmful a problem sexual attraction could be if it were acted on, it is surprising that more attention has not been dedicated to studying this phenomenon.
		The purpose of this study is to enlarge the discussion of sexual attraction in MFF and to highlight the need for this research by surveying family-therapists-in-training who have not had exposure to this topic through formal coursework.

	Ordination and Same Sex Attraction by Andrew R. Baker, America: The Catholic Weekly Magazine
		In the aftermath of the scandal of clerical sexual abuse of minors, the church and society have focused partly on the role of homosexuality.
		The sexual attraction of someone with S.S.A. is “toward” persons of the same sex, and this “tending toward” could easily be described as an “orientation.” However, to classify homosexuality as an “orientation” may obfuscate the serious disorder that exists and the distortion that has been introduced into a biblically inspired Christian anthropology.
		Through the celibate life, the priest redirects his sexual attraction to the opposite sex toward another “body,” the church, which is a “bride” in a complementary spousal relationship.

	Anthony F. Bogaert - AVENwiki
		Asexuality may sometimes be due to inadequate sexual conditioning in adolescence, overinternalization of gender roles in women, or genetic or prenatal conditions.
		Also, the concept of sexual attraction always being "towards" a particular person or group of people may be misleading: for example, it may not adequately address people who experience sexuality receptively rather than proceptively.
		It could be argued that sexual behaviour is an important social dimension and therefore asexuality causes "marked interpersonal difficulty", but this doesn't match normal diagnostic practices: sexual dysfunctions are only defined as problems when they have negative interpersonal effects beyond the realm of sex.
