Sexuality / Sexual Nature
The term sexualism has often been used in literature to refer to humanity's sexual nature. The term pansexualism, seen especially in the field of early-20th-century psychoanalysis, was based on this usage. The terms homosexualism and bisexualism were also based on this usage, and were commonly used before the general adoption of the terms homosexuality and bisexuality. The word sexualism is still in use, though often as part of a hyphenated compound word (for example, "anti-sexualism").

Famous quotes containing the word nature:
“Human knowledge and human power meet in one; for where the cause is not known the effect cannot be produced. Nature to be commanded must be obeyed; and that which in contemplation is as the cause is in operation as the rule.”
