AN ACT TO AMEND TITLE 6, TITLE 11, TITLE 18, TITLE 19, AND TITLE 25 OF THE DELAWARE CODE RELATING TO THE DEFINITION OF SEXUAL ORIENTATION.
This Act updates the definition of "sexual orientation" throughout the Delaware Code by adding asexuality and pansexuality. Asexuality refers to individuals with little to no sexual attraction to other individuals, although asexual individuals may desire emotionally intimate relationships with other individuals. Pansexuality refers to individuals who are attracted sexually or romantically, or both, to another individual regardless of that individual's sex or gender identity.
This Act also makes technical corrections to conform existing law to the standards of the Delaware Legislative Drafting Manual.
