Fans of Kourtney Kardashian Barker believe the star has opened up about what it means to be 'autosexual'.

Back in 2020, a post on the eldest Kardashian's lifestyle website, Poosh, discussed autosexuality and what it means.

The post read: "Are you autosexual? The short answer is yes, most likely. In fact, we all are, at least a little."

But what exactly does it mean to be autosexual?

Well, the article also featured an interview with QueerSexTherapy founder Casey Tanner, who described autosexuality as 'a trait wherein one is turned on by engaging in their own eroticism'.

“While it may not be true for everyone, we generally feel more sexual and turned on when we feel we ourselves are sexy," Tanner said.

The therapist also explained that masturbation can be classified as a form of autosexuality, which can be achieved through visualisation, touch and even smell.

He said: "Autosexuality may extend beyond sexual behavior to include feeling a longing or desire for oneself.

"It can also be the ability to turn oneself on through looking at, visualizing, touching, or smelling oneself."

The article went on to suggest ways of feeling good, including dressing up for yourself, as well as getting to know your own body while bathing.

"'This might mean wearing sexy lingerie, even if your partner hardly gives it a second glance," the post reads.

"It could mean doing your hair and makeup so that you feel good and turned on, even when you've been in a long-term monogamous relationship and the other party hardly notices.

"And it could mean dancing in the mirror in a cute outfit. If feeling sexy independent of someone else has ever turned you on, that's autosexuality, and it's totally normal.

"Many folks resist autosexuality, fearing that it's narcissistic or might detract from partnered sex. In reality, autosexuality can be a healthy, even valuable, part of your sex life."

Just last month, Kourtney - who is married to blink-182 drummer Travis Barker - was criticised over a rather sexual Halloween decoration.

One picture of the huge display showed a stairway lined with pumpkins, while another revealed two inflatable skeletons set up in a rather racy way.

One skeleton is seen sat down, while the other one is mounting it in what could be a nod to Kourtney and Travis' notorious PDA.

With the NSFW nature of the skeletons positioning in mind, people have been quick to criticize the mom-of-four.

One person wrote: "That Skeleton position? Really?"

"You have children and you think the skeletons' positions is appropriate. Ugh tacky," said another.

Kourtney and Travis tied the knot in 2022 and have since welcomed a son, Rocky.
