前綴aego合併自拉丁文中代表「沒有」的 a 和「自我」的 ego,換言之他們的性傾向/浪漫傾向中沒有「自己」的存在。
The term “aego” is made up of Latin words “a” and “ego”, literally means “without self”. In other words, they do not include themselves in their sexual/romantic orientation.

他們對性/浪漫的概念感興趣,也可能對第三者的性/浪漫進行幻想。但他們的角色只是旁觀者,並不希望參與在內。
無論自身能感受性/浪漫的吸引力與否,也能屬於 aegosexual/aegoromantic 的一份子。
They usually like the idea of sex/romance, and might have fantasies in sex/romance of people other than themselves. However, they just act as observers, rather than participants.
One can be identified as aegosexual/aegoromantic, no matter they experience sexual/romantic attraction or not.
Aegosexual 的定義最早出現於心理學家 Bogaert 在2012年發表的論文當中。Bogaert 認為aegosexual 是性偏離,有違無性戀的身份,故把這類型的性傾向命名為 autochorissexualism,即「沒有身份的性傾向」。
後來 Tumblr 用戶 Sugar-and-Spite 提出改以 aegosexual 代替 autochorissexual。由於後者帶負面意思,也較難發音,無性戀社群便開始改用 aegosexual。
The idea of aegosexual was first introduced by psychologist Bogaert in 2012, with a different name “autochorissexualism” (identity-less sexuality). He classified autochorissexualism as a paraphilia which disconnect with the identity of asexual.
Later, a Tumblr user Sugar-and-Spite proposed to use “aegosexual” instead. As “autochorissexual” may associate to negative meaning and is hard to pronouce, the term “aegosexual” is generally welcomed and preferred in the asexual community.
