      Yes, and labels suck. Don’t limit your yourself involuntarily just to fit into one.

          Nobody? That was a general statement, sorry if that was unclear formulated. I just see many people that first set a label for themselves and then try to fit into it, instead of just doing what ever they want and just use them as a short hand to explain themselves.

            setting aside the fact that you replied to my comment using “yourself”, if you are referring to all people who use labels, then you are still referring to me. I use labels. it’s not involuntary or limiting.

      Look, at some point, you gotta stop prefacing everything you say with a disclaimer which appeals to .01% of the population.

      If you’re a biological female attracted to men and feminine breasts, the common shorthand is “bisexual”.

      Sorry, not sorry

        I have no idea what disclaimer you’re talking about. you don’t get to define other people’s sexuality
