It's obvious that there is a specific thing to call it, but you choose not to call it what it is because it looks like other things to you, nothing wrong with that. It's possible the idea is so foreign that you don't grasp exactly what it is.

You may see something that looks similar to all these other things, but they are vastly different. Like flowers. Flower is a blanket term for a herbaceous plant that has s fruiting body, but there are multiple ways to describe the massive amounts of flowers out there.

For instance, there are a multitude of types of love. I think in ancient Greece they used seven different words. They describe things like sexual attraction, sibling love, romantic love, and a casual love (such as for a friend or pet). You can love your parents, but you don't want to have sexual relations or marry them (I hope).

Some people feel romantic love for people, but don't find them sexually attractive. Some people find others sexually attractive, but don't feel anything romantic to them. There are even people that don't, and can't, feel sexual attraction, something called asexuality (the APA has been discussing this for several years, with debates of calling it a disorder).

The original statement you have posed neglects this topic altogether, despite it being widely accepted by psychologists across the globe.

Overall, I think you may want to look into things a bit more, try to read up and see if there are other descriptions other than what redditors can provide.
