Also, hope this doesn't sound unkind, just something I noticed:
Why is there no 'Straight' option without sexual activity? Or just a 'Straight' option without the sexual activity mentions?
Just think that might be worth taking a look at, as you can be straight without being sexually active, just like the other sexualities you mentioned, which also don't state that extra part.
Plus, forgot to add: I feel especially at the end, sexualities are mixed with genders.
You have a sexuality and a gender.
Examples:
1) Say you're a male, identify as a male and in love with the opposite gender.
Your gender is male, your sexuality is heterosexual.
2) You're a male, identify as 'ungendered', in love with the opposite gender (to your physical body).
Your gender is non-binary, sexuality (technically speaking) heterosexual.
Basically what I'm saying is, as an example to your options:
You can be 'straight' or 'homosexual' (lesbian is still homosexual) and still identify gender-wise with the same/opposite body. This has nothing to do with agender.

Seems I missmade it. I didn't mean to ask wether the reader is sexually active, but rather if they have a functioning sex drive.
thanks for mentioning!
I changed it to "sexually driven". I hope that would clarify.
And it's more just a poll to simply determine who is straight, who is (trans) asexual, and who is something else, like gay, lesbian, trans, etc.
But it seems it's been done before.
Silly me should've just googled it before making any polls...
>Implying asexuality is a real thing
It is true that there are many "lgbt"'s in this fandom but there is also an huge influx of made up genders and sexualities which corrupts the demographics and thus making "polls" impossible to do.
However, this could be rather interesting.

EDIT (I've noticed that I've forgotten to include a bigger part )
So to continue: With thisn poll it can be very easy to use causation/corrolation which is dangerous. But as with every poll I'm curious to see the outcome of this one. As it is at this point (14/04/2017 00.11 GMT+1) a rather expected answers seems to be topping. If this poll gets enough votes I might start a more specific poll to see more interesting results.
OP, you've done a great job and I'm curious for the outcome.
Did you know heterosexuals are still more numerous than homosexuals in the fandom? Actually the largest demographic is Bisexuals, followed by heterosexuals and then homosexuals (making up 18% of the fandom).
As Bisexuals make up about 36% of the fandom that means that 54% of the fandom (AT LEAST) is attracted to the same sex.

I used to think i was heterosexual, but I do find that I am attracted to some guys now as well so I am bisexual?If you doubt yourself, you aren't bi.
(I am still a teenager so I am not sure, maybe it's a phase?)

That's an interesting and plausible theory.Well, I guess what I wrote is just a wild theory. I guess there are alternatives, but actually I haven't seen any gay forums or solely gay based communities that much.
But, just to get it right, you're saying, that in this case, the subject gets involved in the furry community, because it seeks a place to be it's LGTB-self, rather than for the core aspect. You don't think there are alternatives, on the internet, for a LGTB-person, that don't involve animals walking upright?
What also concerns me, is that you're suggesting that there's a repancy between the numbers of LGTB'ers and their place-of-origin, being that, in the furry community, the numbers of LGTB'ers are higher in countries where it is considered "wrong" to be LGTB, because these people would be seeking "refuge" in the community.
I'm not saying it's implausible, but in my (limited) personal experience, I've actually seen staggeringly higher numbers of straight, non-trans furries from countries where being LGTB is a "problem", possibly because these people are imprinted by their envirement, in believing that being LGTB is a problem, and are thus less likely to admit being it, or admit to being it.
