Whats Your Sexuality?

[Grumpy Cat]

Again, I only found out about pansexuality when I googled it today, but as I understand it, the bit that extends it beyond bisexual is the slightly more unusual cases, such as a hermaphrodite, or perhaps a pre-operative transsexual. To use the example of a person with male genitalia who acts and identifies as a woman: somebody interested in men would be turned off by the dressing and identifying as a woman; someone interested in women would be put off by the male genitalia; a bisexual - AS I UNDERSTAND IT, I could be wrong about this - would like either a male or a female, but not the cloudy inbetween; and, finally, a pansexual would be unconcerned about any cloudy gender definitions.

Anybody can feel free to correct me on this, as I'm just learning this stuff today. But that seems to me to be the underlying difference. Of course, you can easily generalize things by sticking with hetero-/homo-/bi-/a-sexual, in the same way (to use an example close to our hearts) that you could generalize the autism spectrum by simply uniting everybody underneath the banner "autism spectrum". The more defined categories, like pansexual and all the others listed, would be more akin to going deeper within the category and further defining it - in the case of our example, that'd be like going deeper than "autism spectrum" and getting into terms like "classic autism", "PDD NOS", and, of course, "Aspergers' Syndrome".

Does that sound like it makes sense? Or is that a bad comparison? Again, I'm only today figuring this stuff out myself, so please don't take offense if I'm way off the mark with any of that, but feel free to correct and give me alternatives.

No, that helped a lot. I'll stick with the hetero-/homo-/bi-/a-sexual - it's a lot less confusing.

Why can't people stick to the topic? The thread title and question is simple. This isn't a place to debate and insult.

Thread opened up. Thread bans and possible further actions will result to those that continue to stray away from this guideline.

I agree with you. I don't believe in bisexuality, asexual, pansexual. It doesn't exist. You are either straight, gay, or lesbian or trans. I think that this generations is the most sexually confused generation ever. Every girl I meet online or in real life is like I'm bisexual. Seriously? Its like literally every girl. Are you that afraid of being a lesbian? Just admit your damn gay already. I know how hard it is to accept it but still...

I'm finding it very difficult to see this as anything other than troll bait.

Hmm, what happened here? I just mentioned I can't get with bisexuals being described as greedy and confused and their sexuality shrugged off as non-existent. If that's being perceived as insulting or inflammatory, so be it. A dear friend of mine has had to go through too much aggravation for me not to at least speak out on that.
I consider myself straight, but I don't a priori exclude there ever being a guy who I'd feel attracted to and comfortable with enough for physical/sexual things to occur. It never happened so far, and it probably never will, but who knows? As with most things, sexuality is a spectrum, a gliding scale, with a lot of people on either side, but also with a lot of grey area in between. Things aren't set in stone, people and their moods change. I'd say that's a good thing.

What happened? Good question. Posts disappeared. Well I guess we took the bait and got into a discussion of the nature of the thing we are being asked to identify. I posted about chimeric people. I have a strong interest in humans and biology. I did not know that would be considered out of bounds. If I feel like I cannot get the rules quickly and fall into line, I think I would not come here any more, to be honest. I had a long day and do not need to feel too aspie for AC. I get nervous about these things. I read all of my town's ordinances in one sitting.

Probably pansexual. I could see myself being attracted to people of all gender identities.

 

[Madame Catfish]

I have no sexuality, though I can be romantically inclined.

What's the difference between pansexual and bisexual? (Am I the only one that doesn't know this?)

Pansexual's a redneck term, meaning someone hit you in the crotch with a skillet for deliberately pissing them off.

Seriously though, its often used as a synonym for bisexual.

Haha i think most of us are somewhere in the middle with sexuality, and it changes too. I have thoroughly enjoyed my sex life and have some great memories.

You feel a lot happier and calmer after a good sex session feeling thoroughly satisfied. Floating around all day : D

 

[Sagigirl14]

I'm very straight, always crushing on some kind of guy (that's straight). I have no probs with anyones sexuality though. I have friends of all kinds.

That's cuz sex is like a drug. Especially since those endorphines are released. Kind of like you're high. Lol!

I always want to cuddle, despite the fact that I hate to be constantly touched. It just seems different when it comes to someone I love and care for. Like I don't mind it.

I like to give fingertip head massages also foot massages for relaxation, also just stroking with a feather on their forehead and arms. I do it to myself whilst watching tv. I hate being touched directly on my dick ( has to be over material) or any part of body with thin skin, wrists especially. Don't know why I just feel squeamish about it.I don't mind hugs but i don't really like sleeping alongside other people unless i can make a distance between us as it makes me so hot and uncomfortable, also i spin like mad in bed tossing and turning, Im considering sharing a house but i have to get up frequently to make snacks and piss or watch films so i would probably annoy people, its 1 am here in sweden right now, and some guy is singing princes purple rain outside in the square LooL
