Technosexual
From Academic Kids
Technosexual (a portmanteau word combining "technological" and "heterosexual") originally referred to an individual with a sexual attraction to machinery. However, the term was recently redefined to describe a male with a strong aesthetic sense and a (non-sexual) fondness for technological accessories.
This term also applies to anyone that spends a large amount of time on computers or doing computer related things. Technosexual implies a vast knowledge of things that have to do with computers. It combines the slang term "The Sex" meaning "hottest" "best" or "adept at" with "Techno" which refers to machines or technology. A literal meaning would be "The best at technology"
