What is an autosexuality?

I am just curious to what it is for some reason. I am writing a book and I am writing one of my characters as an autosexual. I know Narcissus is an example of one. The character is in love with himself so thats what I was aiming for but I wondered if there is more to that if I were to label him an autosexual.

What is an autosexuality?
You could describe him or her as a person who is more in tune with their sexuality then with anyone else. A person who truly satisfies themselves without the need of another human. He or she can excite and please them self and is happy with it. No other human can satisfy their cravings like themselves.


Hope it helps!
Reply:I think you're right, it's one who can only love himself. Check out WIkipedia's entry:
Reply:What the above posters have said is correct. It would be interesting to see if you can write a main character with this and still make the audience like him. Best of luck to you, you're gonna need it! :)
Reply:'Auto' means self.


It means someone that is sexually attracted to him or herself. Someone that prefers masturbating than having sex with a partner.
Reply:Narcissism is generally just an extremely egotistical person. When I read 'autosexual', I think of someone who is REALLY into 'self gratification', if you know what I mean. I would omit it if I were you. Your book would probably be more interesting if the reader were informed that the character was a narcissist by their actions. That way we, the readers, could form our own conclusions.
