I most definitely agree with sexual fluidity and if that’s how someone feels then that’s ok! Going off that, for me it’s been so hard, especially with pride month and it’s making me bitchy which sucks. If someone doesn’t wants labels then that’s ok too, for me personally I LOATHEEEE not feeling compatible with a certain label🥲
i don’t get why so many ppl don’t understand this. especially when bc sexual orientation is such a touchy topic that it can be hard to find the right people to talk to when you’re trying to better understand yourself. i personally don’t use labels anymore for my orientation. i just like who i like! when i’m given a label, it puts all these stereotypes on me
I think the reason people don't want to admit this is true is because they think it reduces sexuality to a "phase". I'm not saying it does, but also I know a lot of us have heard that sentiment from people in our lives. I know I have had people in my life assume I'm straight after being interested in a man (I'm a bi woman). Sexuality is a really personal thing and the idea that it can change can confuse or scare people. But someone's sexuality changing IS NOT a personal attack!!!!!
The last part reads weird af. “You can be gay(/lesbian) all your life” it’s not a can. It’s an is, I AM a lesbian. I think sexuality is fluid for bi/pan people as that’s quite literally part of the definition and history but I do not think it translates to gay/lesbians. I will NEVER love a man that’s not a choice
Again, anyone can find their sexualities over time, but would you call someone who identities as a lesbian and at one point kissed a boy due to social pressure straight at that point in time? No, they were always a lesbian. You can find out things about yourself, like if you once identitied as a lesbian and realized you like men but only enjoy anal from men bc it’s something you never tried before, and now identify as bi but you would’ve always been bi actually
Same, I’m a bi lady that’s always been that way and likely always will be. 🥰 Some people seem to think that when bi folks choose their ‘forever partner’ that their sexuality ‘changed’ and that’s certainly not the case a good chunk of the time. But some folks are fluid and that’s cool, too! 🫶
the post said that “no labels are static” and you called what they said true. forgive me for reading agreement with a dismissive and conversion therapy-esque argument as anything other than agreement lmao. obviously it’s fluid for some people. op said it’s always fluid and you said “so true”
