Yup even outside of gender you can be attracted to things like representation I'm bisexual and attracted to femininity a lot more than masculinity, all a spectrum (16)

Not everything has to be fit on a spectrum; for the most part it doesn't even make sense. You're very much allowed to just say you have preferences without subjecting everything to inane North American beliefs (-17)

Bisexuality is the spectrum between gay and straight. You can be 25% attracted to men and 75% to women, 50/50, or 75% men and 25% women. Or you can be 90:10, 35:65, etc etc. Anyone could be considered bisexual as long as they're not 100:0, 0:100, or completely asexual.I consider asexuality to be its own dimension. Like if bisexuality is the spectrum between what genders you like, the asexual spectrum is how and to what degree you feel that attraction, with asexuality being at the very extreme end of that spectrum.

How can you be anything but 50/50 if you're bi? You're making things up if you're suggesting people can be 90:10 or even 75:25 (-7)

Do you like chicken wings? Do you like hamburgers? Do you like them both? Do you like one more than the other? (8)

That's called a mood. (0)

YOU called it a preference. S*x and gender have always been different things, that's why they're different words. Because "non-binary" is a new term for something that's existed forever so they're explaining what the words mean. Literally everything you've said is a right wing talking point. I'm not even left wing, I'm literally an Eisenhower Republican. Nobody "pushed" you to the right, you listened to grifters and believe them. "Gender theory" isn't a thing and it's not taught in schools now Just because new terms like "gender fluid" and "nonbinary" are being used doesn't mean the actual thing is new. Also those are not taught in school lol (0)

I never said sexuality was a preference. I am literally saying sexual identity isnt a preference it's just how you are. I stated that gender is reducing sexuality to a preference which I am against.s*x and gender were interchangeable. forms that asked for your information would ask for s*x sometimes and gender sometimes. gender used to refer to gendered language. 2nd wave feminism pushed the idea of gender roles. gender was always directly correlated to s*x. you can deny it all you want but I'm 40 and this crap started when I was in my mid 20s and it was heavily ridiculed even by liberals back then.non binary is meaningless. nothing makes me a woman except for the fact that I am an adult human female. if "gender identity" was a thing all the "cis" right wingers out there would also "feel" their gender. wearing a skirt doesnt make me a woman. wearing pants or having traditional male hobbies doesnt make me a man. it's just describing femininity and masculinity and there ha...

There was literally a whole recurring SNL skit about it, if you weren't a child you'd remember (1)

I'm 40. I havent watched saturday night live in 20 years because its sucked for even longer than that. I am not calling you a child as an insult it's because I'm frustrated with your lack of time on the planet. your lack of time on the planet makes it difficult to talk to you about this because the world started for you when you remember it and everything else is something you were taught. you are telling me things were taught as true when I lived through them. you are telling me what my world was like when you were obviously not here. if you are a similar age to me and making these claims then you are just a liar and I dont think you're a liar I think you genuinely dont know and it is frustrating.

The current speaker of the House of Representatives was born in 1972. So, yes, the very leader of the current agenda to criminalize homosexuality in the U.S. is, in fact, Gen-X. More and more of Gen-X is supporting that agenda by the day, whether you like it or not. It doesn't matter what they once did if they're the ones heck bent on destroying all that progress now. (-1)

Are you holding out for universal support? I'm in a rural area that is growing a brand new crop of red-neck, right-wing zoomers. Your generation doesn't agree with you unequivocally, let alone any other generation. This is the kind of aggravating shit that lets me know you lack the ability to think critically. 'It doesn't matter what they once did.' Except that absolutely all the rights you're so terrified to lose were bought and paid for by the people you're pooping on. You remind me of new wave feminists pointing out all the ways that Susan B wasn't a REAL feminist. (1)
