Imprisexual
Imprisexual is a term for those who have such specific sexual preferences, it may feel as though it matters more than one's orientation itself. This goes for any form of preference, whether genital, aesthetic, or even personality preference. The individual may feel those preferences strongly affect their attraction more strongly than their orientation. Someone who is imprisexual can be any orientation, such as impri-gay or impri-straight. Dating someone who does not fit said preferences causes a lower range in attraction, and thus affects how their orientation feels.
This is meant to not be exclusively LGBTQ+, as those who are queern't may also use this label to describe themselves. An example of this would be for those who are cisgender and straight and have a preference for cisgender people, as they feel as though they can't relate to transgender people's experiences due to not having a transgender experience themselves. This is not due to transphobia, but rather because they wish to relate to one's gender experience, and find one's gender experience to be very important to their sexual or romantic life. This also does not mean they wouldn't date a transgender individual - it just means they prefer to date cisgender people, as they relate to their preference or can have a basis of understanding for their gender experiences for being cisgender.
This could also be used for other forms of attraction, such as impriromantic, impriplatonic, imprialterous, etc.
