I guess i should post again then x3


I'm Pan/Bi, not sure... The only difference between the two that i can find, is that the idea of Pan is that you consider transexuals aswell, and id say i am not too into transexuals and i think it would be hard for me to get together with one, but i still dont consider anything impossible and therefor i am not sure x)

Hmmm...

I am usually confused but I am Bi-Romantic and Straight.
I do however like transexuals. I am a little attracted to female based ones but I am fine with all of them.
I am attracted to femboys... and pretty boys, like.. the really pretty ones.

In a way.. I like everything feminine.

Post by: The Past on January 20, 2015, 11:37:46 AM
I'm asexual. Possibly demisexual.
Adding romance to the mix, I'd normally say heteroromatic, but I'm starting to feel I may be more aromantic than anything.

I consider myself a bisexual. I can like people of special sexualities, like tran and pan and such, but within reason *shrug* Femboys are the cutest  :)

A poll is a recommended idea, if you're unsure  how to do this I can do it for you if you PM me the options you want.

Otherwise I'm gay.

These forums have a pretty interesting mix of sexualities with bisexual or gay the most popular. I didn't expect to be the only sapiosexual but I guess I am.

I will find you, and I...will...HUG YOU!!

Just pointing out that sapiosexual is an online neologism and that aside seems to be the only place the concept exists.

Poll has been added, this time with two added options (Upon Silvers request)

Demisexual - Someone who is sexually attracted purely on Personality and not physical looks, genders, or other constraints
Sapiosexual - Someone who is attracted specifically to Intelligence, regardless of other factors.

I vote sapiosexual? Does this work on Tapatalk? Also I am a sapoisexual but not limited. If someone be as bright as I hoped then I'd overlook it if they have a fun personality.

Post by: Goblin Cat 😸 on January 21, 2015, 02:35:31 AM
...Sapiosexual is actually kind of ableist? You can't necessarily tell someone's intelligence by looking at them and any time I've seen it, it's been used in a holier than thou sort of way that implies it is somehow better because said sapiosexuals don't engage in sex, or to discriminate against disabled people. And even so, how does one define intelligence for these standards? Is it good grammar? The ability to do math and understand/rehearse westernized ideas that are considered "intelligent?" Formal education? The latter can also make the idea somewhat classist as well since not everyone can afford a formal education. I feel like these are the reasons why Sapiosexuality isn't listed as a 'thing,' really. It is more of a problematic term than anything else. But anyway, I digress. I'm not here to start arguments.

I consider myself a number of things; aromantic, some form of asexual with a pan preference? Sexuality is weird. I guess I could just sum it up and say my orientation is "shrug, that's cool."

I always thought bisexual included trans people. I've been a bit questioning of whether i'm Pan or Bi recently but i've settled on Bi with a heavy preference for femboys x3
I'm perfectly fine with transgender and genderqueer people too if Bi doesn't actually encompass that.

From my (limited) understanding, bisexuals feel both an attraction to their own gender and other gender(s), which means trans people would be included in this as long as they identify with a specific gender. Pansexuality includes non-traditional identities, such as genderfluid, androgynous, etc. Since pansexuality involves attraction to anyone, bisexuality can be considered a branch of pansexuality; and yes, you can be both  ^_^

The two official genders male and female are what bisexuals attract to (of course with minor exceptions, but those are rare). Therefore (as far as I have learned during my studies), trans and other identities would not be covered by bisexuality. I for one fancy both official genders, but not every "identity"

You can get the meaning from the words themselves

Bi = 2, so Bisexual is attracted to TWO sexes, which are male and female

Pan = Omni = All, so Pansexual is attracted to ALL sexes

Seems like the gay team is winning this time, despite bisexuals winning last time.

I blame the extra Demisexual criteria, which separates more people who probably voted "bisexual" or "pansexual" in the other thread (due to them being the closest to demisexual)

I'm effectively asexual, there's very few people I actually find sexually appealing and honestly I don't really have a desire to act upon such thoughts.
I just don't find doing 'stuff' very fun, there's plenty of other things I enjoy far more to do with people (like cuddling!).

All the people I do find attractive are guys though, and I am homoromantic. I'm pretty weird with relationships though, I probably fall under something like relationship anarchy (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Relationship_anarchy).


These conclusions were drawn after limited IRL experience with my bf.

Greetings fellow purple!! ^_^



I've always been very hetero, but lately I've been losing interest almost completely... Too much dwelling over girls in the past has probably made me callous.
Being asexual is so much better anyway - I have so much more free time and happiness  ^_^

Voted gay. I'm technically bisexual, but the only female I've ever been with was extremely masculine. Basically, while gender identity means close to nothing for me in terms of a partner, I only find myself sexually attracted to those with a masculine appearance of some sort. Emotionally, I've got a hard time bonding with females in general, which has added a lot to me identifying as gay rather than bisexual.

On the Kinsey scale, I'd place myself as a 5. :3

Putting my vote down for straight. I am into women, though I could kinda see myself dating guys if that makes sense. But I have a higher sex drive then most, and I just dont find guys sexually appealing, so I highly doubt  I would ever act upon a gay relationship.

You shouldn't restrict who you are on the inside just because of something an old book tells you.

I attribute my bisexuality to having an unusually high sex drive. Plus come on, both sexes can be pretty damn cute!

Yes, Mr. Green Text ^-^

So how many of you guys and gals have been certain of your sexuality for years, and how many have just recently discovered themselves? I became certain of my sexual interests at the age of sixteen, but I classified myself as "bicurious" until last year, cause I wasn't entirely sure if I would ever consider a relationship with a guy.
Title: Re: Sexual Orientation Poll 2015
Post by: Azeliah on February 16, 2015, 12:33:39 AM
I was certain I was gay from the age of 12. Later I realized, that I was technically bisexual with a strong preference for the male gender and/or masculine appearance. Some would call me homoflexible, but I don't see myself in that category, as I don't feel attraction toward feminine looking females.
Title: Re: Sexual Orientation Poll 2015

I think Regular Expressions would be useful in defining sexuality XD

sexuality* = attracted to none or many sexualities (including all)
sexuality+ = attracted to one or many sexualities (including all)
(male) | (female) = Attracted to male OR female
[^cismale] = Attracted to everything BUT CIS-male

You could add sub categories, for example
male* would mean "attracted to none or many male identifying people", so might be transgender male for example

We could use a current local variable $GENDER = your identified gender and $SEX equals your identified sex and $ALL = the set of all pronouns for gender and sex

Thus heterosexual on a cis person would be
/[^$SEX]/
Homosexual would be
/$SEX/
Bisexual would be
/(Male) | (Female)/
Poly sexual would be
/(gender+)/
Asexual would be
//
Pansexual would be
/$ALL/
Etc XD

Any chance of a visual representation with colours?

I'm mostly physically attracted to women, every mate I've had on here has been male.  My partner IRL is female.

Whether someone is trans-anything doesn't bother me, but I still process them in binary terms.

Anyone who'd like to tell me which box I fit in and that's how I'll answer the poll.

I don't mind being pigeon-holed, I am whatever I am regardless of the label, but when I use a term I like to use it correctly.

These are Regular Expressions (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Regular_expression) used for pattern matching and so forth in various scripting languages like Perl, Python and Bash. They are extremely helpful.

  The point about I'm making is to try and make sexuality based on property rather than label, similar to *-codes and so forth

I don't like being labeled or categorized, and I don't even know what I'd label myself if I did. Recently I found this cute little comic that I totally relate with:

Yeah, so I'm not gay or bi or anything. But I just like girls in my own way.

Something about that seems too... clinical to me. Personally, I don't think code like that is adequate to describe me.

I'm actually a little uncertain. I identify as Bisexual but since I don't really care if you're male, female, trans (etc) I guess pansexual would fit more. Still not really sure, plus I already came out as Bi and got called disgusting by my grandmother, not sure how adding "i like trans people too" to that list would really go down with her. *sigh*  :S

Been openly homosexual for a long, long time now. It's pretty good that I've had such a supporting friend group for it, because I'm.. Well, I'm hardly subtle about it. Fortunately, my friends don't seem to mind my overly-flirty nature with them, so I've been pretty happy.


It really is rather interesting to see the diversity on this forum. If I'm honest, I expected a lot more of an unbalanced ratio, but it seems there's quite a bit of variety amongst us.

Too be honest I really like the diversity of the group too. It just goes too prove that the furry fandom is a mix of tons of different people and not just one group that the media likes to put it out as. I even get upset to hear and read that certain people make it out to be a fetish which I come to grasp isn't.

Strictly asexual. I don't really seem to have an interest in anybody. I've tried to have a girlfriend and a boyfriend, but I never felt any attraction to either. Which in retrospect is why I'm still a virgin but, either way... It's just not for everyone. :3

My school had one gay person (that I knew of) and he was bullied till he transferred. He was an alright guy but we just weren't similar enough to be friends. We ran cross country together so we were casual friends but didn't really associate outside of that.

Well it started as doing...stuff to see if he was into guys. Then it got a little more serious, at least on my end but he said sure to dating so we went for it. He ended up making jokes about me in a sorta "covering his tracks" kinda way. I kinda couldn't deal with that and broke it off, albeit gently.

Never had the time, about the time he started making them he had moved further away, causing us to meet less outside of school. We drifted apart and I was sat there hating myself for being dumb enough to let the whole thing happen. I felt used. Even now I feel the relationship was a little one-sided.

As far as I'm aware, Sapiosexuality is the attraction to a being with intelligence, regardless of gender. You find their mind attractive, and that's what brings you to want to be with them.

I am hetero. My girlfriend is not a furry however... she does not fully understand, but she accepts, and that works for me! I am, however, extremely open minded. Many of my friends have been of varying sexual orientations (my free spirited nature must attract that type of soul) and had assumed I was also of varying sexual orientation, due to how ambiguously I express my own sexuality. I do get flattered by compliments (and propositions) regardless of what gender / orientation they come from. We are all souls in this world.

I'm Pan/Bi, not sure...

I'm, well, I dunno! ^~^ on the pan vs bi thing, it makes my blood boil. Pan in respect to finding TranSEXUALS (there's a difference between transgender, which is used more as an umbrella term, and transsexual) is a cop out in stigma. I mean really?!? I'm a girl. I was cheated out of ther "right body." When I undergo my procedures, I'll be a girl like any other with. Now, I know what you're thinkin'. "But youre sti-" QUIET. Let's say a Natal Female has her uterus removed and had her breasts removed. Is she any less a woman? Why treat her different from a girl like me? And THAT is my whole Pan/bi argument. Now, the scenario described is also for transsexuals (like myself), and does not not include non binary gender concepts whithin the argument. Even then, if they have no gender, what then? THAT is where pan should be a subset of bisexual, I guess the moral of my little story is that it's disseespectul (at least to me) that one would have to be pan in order to love a transSEXUAL like me.Transsexuals are an individual that are a subset of Transgenderism, and the difference between traditional Transgenderism and transsexualism is that transsexuals feel the desire to make the outside match the gender on the inside.




It bothers me for some odd reason, and I hope no one takes it the wrong way! TT~TT. Anyways, I don't really have one. I'm asexual one second, then bisexual, then I don't even know!

So it's wrong to be to attracted to or not be attracted a certain gender? Nobody can choose their preferences, and even if one looks like, acts like, and believes they are a certain gender, there's certain things you just can't change yet. In the future this won't be such a problem, but right now it's something we have to deal with. For example, if someone likes girls, they can't just change their attraction if the girl they like doesn't have properly female anatomy. Don't get angry at someone for something that isn't their fault.

My brain is melting.
Bi = 2, so bisexuals like girls & boys.
Polysexuals like girls & boys & "other" (such as gender-queer).

I thought that was Pan :S @.@

Poly is some genders, pan is all genders.
Or at least that's how I've understood it xP

Meanwhile here I am identifying as bi but meaning "all is fair game to me" (sounds douchey) but bi is just the label I prefer I guess

I think you're correct. Honestly it gets pretty confusing, part of the reason I prefer not to label myself.

Just to put in my two cents;

Pansexuals can also prefer to completely ignore gender entirely, focusing on personality and etc. Essentially being "gender blind."

That's when it kills me that people say "I'm pan with a ... preference." But to each their own I guess.

As far as I'm aware, pansexual means that you are "gender blind" as you only care about the other persons personality.

Oui, you are correct Cheza! Poly means many, but not all. I like guys, gals, and some in between. The rainbow is a lie, it's not the whole spectrum!

I'm not sure if i count as asexual anymore. I'm a woman trapped in a man's body so i don't consider that gay, but i don't think its straight either. I'm pretty confused right now.
