While homosexuality often made people the target of discrimination, harassment and violence in the Muggle world, witches and wizards tended to be tolerant of or indifferent toward gays and lesbians. Some orientations are: heterosexuality (attraction to people of the opposite sex), homosexuality (attraction to people of the same sex), bisexuality (attraction to two or more sexes, typically male and female) and asexuality (lack of sexual attraction or desire). Sexual orientation is a pattern of romantic and/or sexual attraction to other people.
