Neosexual is a neologism used to describe a subset of the heterosexual male population. A neosexual relates to a departure from metrosexual, back towards more traditional masculine characteristics. A neosexual is described as "James Bond with a sense of humor".[1]

The traits of a neosexual include:

  • Masculinity
  • Debonair bearing
  • Fit and healthy body
  • "Handy" around the house, able to fix things, etc.
  • Sense of humor

A neosexual is described as sensitive to his partner's needs without losing his masculinity.[2][3]
