2011, Holly Combs, "Labeling sexuality is not simple", ''The Maroon'' (Loyola University New Orleans), Volume 90, Number 10, 11 November 2011, page 6:
- Demisexuals experience sexual desire only toward people with whom they already have a strong emotional bond. Like an asexual, a demisexual would not see an attractive woman and immediately desire sex, unless, of course, that attractive woman happened to be in a serious emotional relationship with the demisexual.
2013, Whitney Cyr, "Students ‘come out’ and inspire with stories", ''The Equinox'' (Keene State College), 24 April 2013:
- Rines identified himself as a demisexual, meaning that he is only sexually attracted to a person once a strong emotional attachment has been formed.
