Final answer:

"Ceterosexual/Ceteroromantic" means being attracted to cisgender individuals—the gender someone was assigned aligns with their gender identity. The correct option is B.

Step-by-step explanation:

"Ceterosexual/Ceteroromantic" refers to individuals who are attracted to people whose gender aligns with what they were assigned at birth, also known as cisgender people.

It is not focused on the gender of the person experiencing the attraction but rather on the gender identity of the individuals they are attracted to, which must be congruent with their sex assigned at birth.

Thus, the answer to the question is B) Attracted to one gender, specifically individuals whose gender identity is cisgender.
