What is your sexuality?

[TickTockMan]

It's really quite simple:

Heterosexual = a sexuality/sexual orientation = an attraction to the opposite sex
Homosexual = a sexuality/sexual orientation = an attraction to the same sex
Bisexual = a sexuality/sexual orientation = an attraction to both sexes

Pansexual/Fluid = Bisexual
Demisexual = either hetero, homo, or bisexual

Asexual = a non-sexuality/sexual orientation (just like atheism is a non-religion)

Transexual/Transgender = a gender identity/gender dysphoria not a sexuality/sexual orientation

Here's a fairly complete list of these trendy nonsense terms:

An Ever Growing List of Sexualities & their Definitions

The language around sexuality and gender is constantly changing, with new definitions evolving, and existing words being reclaimed by new generations. We've compiled this list of sexualities and their definitions to act as an ever growing resource for the LGBTQ+ community and our allies.

Not even close.

There is a decided irony that, in an effort to throw off the confines of sexual labels, the reformers have created a plethora of labels, which seek to define humans in ever more narrow slices.

I believe you are referring to mbamike's post found here: https://forums.justusboys.com/threa...of-you-2017-2022-edition.456945/post-11776903

Yes, that's the post I remembered.

Toto, I don't think we're talking about your father's Kinsey reports anymore!

I voted transgender because polls are usually inaccurate.

Then it sounds like you are 100 years behind on your reading about sexuality and gender.

Perhaps you could just explain the terms instead of insulting people for not understanding?

100% gay with the caveat that I could have sex with Halle Berry, Angela Bassett or Pink if they asked me to.

That seems to be the whole point of this micro-genre labeling of sexuality.

If you tell someone you are 'Gay', (or Lesbian, or Bi) they can simply reply, 'That's nice Dear', and move on.
But if you tell someone you are 'Akoisexual', for example, it pretty much demands that you be given the floor to explain your amazing uniqueness and how you are not like those boring Gays, Lesbians, and Bis.

That's why there is this continuous need to make up new, ever more obscure, terms. Once people know what the old terms mean they lose their power of attention-grabbing narcissism.

It's much the same as regards the ever-growing list of supposed genders and gender-identities. I think we are up to at least 72 by now.

I guess the ultimate goal is that eventually each person will have their very own words to describe how incomparably individual and utterly unique they are.

Personally, I don't care all that much what anyone choses to call themself, but I really can't be arsed with wasting my time to learn all these newly invented terms and their ridiculous meanings just feed the egos of the self-obsessed.

That's kinda scary. I mean, how well does it grip? Eventually I'll need to get back to my chores.

EC would not approve a lot of these posts.

Back in the day they used to say "Gay, bi, lesbian, it doesn't matter. Sex is a small part of what makes a person."

Now it's 'LOOK AT ME! LOOK AT ME! I FUCK COOKWARE! THAT'S WHO I AM! LOOK AT ME!!!"

 

[Charon]

^You forgot to add "I'M UNIQUE AND DIFFERENT FROM YOU! GIVE ME SPECIAL TREATMENT!"

 

[Zeno Lorea]

Gay or homosexual, please. F*gg*t and qu**r are slurs that I do not allow anyone to call me.
