'''Longevism''', also known as '''life extensionism''' or '''prolongevitism''', is a viewpoint that favours living longer than normal.<ref name="campa">Campa, Riccardo (July 29, 2008).

"The remaining 93% confine themselves to a much more pragmatic and realistic stance, defining transhumanism under this aspect in terms of longevism, extension of the human lifespan and life expectancy within the limit of the opportunities increasingly offered by biological and physical sciences."</ref><ref name="synnott">Synnott, Anthony (October 27, 2011).

"The term life-extensionism is meant to describe an ideological system professing that radical life extension (far beyond the present life expectancy) is desirable on ethical grounds and is possible to achieve through conscious scientific efforts."</ref> It is considered a [[Transhumanism|transhumanist]] stance.<ref name="campa" /> Though longevism is related to [[immortalism]], longevists do not necessarily desire immortality.<ref name="sandberg">Sandberg, Anders (October 27, 2017).
