名詞
性偏好
a term that refers to an individual's choice or inclination in sexual partners, often used to describe heterosexuality, homosexuality, or bisexuality. This term is sometimes considered outdated or problematic by some LGBTQ+ advocates, who prefer 'sexual orientation' to emphasize that it is not a choice.
範例:
