Demi’ is French for the word ‘half’. A person who is demisexual doesn’t feel sexually attracted to someone without a deep emotional connection. In short, you need feelings for someone to get horny.

When you’re under a lot of pressure, your body begins to ooze cortisol, the body’s stress hormone.When cortisol levels go up, libido goes down. High cortisol can even hinder your ability to experience orgasm. You may also experience trouble lubricating, getting aroused mentally, and a feeling of sluggishness and general lack of sexy feelings.
