Now I think

Recently, I knew a word of sexuality "sapiosexual" which describes people who are attrected to intelligence. Is it mean that this names people who love intelligent person?? If so, I might belong to it so I wanted to identify myself.
Then I knew one website where we can clarify our sexuality by answering some questions.
It's here.

The site above questioned me " do the people who you have been attracted so far have the same feature which is intelligent?"
Since I answered 100% yes, the site gave me the conclusion that I have an aspect of sapiosexual.
But isn't it just my type? Like some people likes taller people, or people who smiles so nice, is this not just "I like intelligent people because they are dependable"? …Or maybe I am on the different page??
So how about people who are attracted to the age. Some of human beings are only interested in older people such as 23-year-old person who like only older than 50-year-old person (or 50-year-old one who are attracted only to younger than 20-year-old one, am I to start a dangerous story though?).
As there are literally anything or any features that can be attractions for some people, the gender words can never cover all of the sexualites we possibly have.
Maybe defining our own sexualities can fit us to some communities and make us feel comfortable by knowing each other with fellows who have same or similar gender characteristics. But we can be anything. Is it really necessary to create borders between us?

(Of cource, I need to learn more. I do not completely understand.)
