灰色性向(英語:grey-sexuality)是介於有性向和無性向之間的一種性取向[1],The Frisky將將此定義為:「介於有性向與無性向之間,一種可以喜歡男性也可以喜欢女性的性取向」[2]。被認為是灰色性向的個體會被稱為gray-A、grace或gray ace,並構成所謂的「Ace umbrella」[3]。一般使用半性向(demisexua / semisexual)偏無性向(asexual-ish)偏性向(sexual-ish)等詞語來稱呼。[4]
灰色性向者通常被認為比較傾向於無性向的一端[5]。所以,例如AVEN(Asexual Visibility and Education Network)此類線上社群的出現,提供了灰色性向者討論的空間。
