"Sexistential" is a song by Swedish singer Robyn from her ninth studio album, Sexistential (2026). It was released as the album's second single on 7 January 2026 by Konichiwa and Young as a double A-side with "Talk to Me". On 3 February 2026, a remix by Venezuelan producer Arca was released.
Background and composition Robyn wrote and produced "Sexistential" with Klas Åhlund. It is a house-pop song with lyrics about "the unique travails of trying to get laid during IVF treatment". Robyn was inspired to write the song after André 3000 claimed in 2023 that "no one would want to hear him rap about getting a colonoscopy". She recalled, "It was my cue. I have to do this, I have to write a rap about IVF."
Chart performance Following its release, "Sexistential" debuted at number 44 on the Swedish download chart DigiListan.
