If you mean gay as in homosexual: I'm not

If you mean gay as in happy: I'm not

[–] SteveXVII@lemmy.blahaj.zone 14 points 1 year ago (1 children)

As a bisexual, I often use the word gay to describe myself, so it isn't exclusively meant for homosexuals.

[–] Linuxduck@lemmy.blahaj.zone 4 points 1 year ago

Same. I'm non binary, pan sexual... But I'm also gay af

same if we assume the people that moved over here from the sub are even demographics and no group was more likely to move then it'll be about 50% bi guys

your heteromantic orientation is queer imo

[–] thefloatingpoint@feddit.de 5 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Excuse me, you are what? Hetero asexual but what is grey?

[–] AdaleiM@lemmy.world 6 points 1 year ago

grey is like I'm unsure, I think? Used to be just plain ace but it's been changing the older I get.

(gray? idk)aroace agender, so a lot of people would consider me to be "gay", even if I'm not really homosexual. Definitely queer, though

[–] Devonian@lemmy.blahaj.zone 6 points 1 year ago (1 children)

hello there other ace/grayace peep! nice to see ya :)

[–] GingerHobbit@beehaw.org 5 points 1 year ago

Hey, found the aces what's up? I'm ace / pan romantic? (don't quote me on the second part)

I am so gay i like men, women and enbies.

[–] Gormadt@beehaw.org 8 points 1 year ago

I'm not gay

I'm a polyamorous biromantic demisexual.

Or just Bi when the normies ask.

[–] Dver@lemmy.world 8 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I don't really figured it out yet, but I'm (cis male) in a happy relationship with trans man, if it counts!

[–] merryGoose@lemmy.blahaj.zone 4 points 1 year ago

I don't think you neccesarily have to have a label, as long as you're happy with yourself and your partner!

Cis straight but everybody should be themselves

[–] vinceman@lemmy.blahaj.zone 7 points 1 year ago

I'm not gay, just deeply closeted.

[–] RayeRei@lemmy.blahaj.zone 6 points 1 year ago

Bi i guess. But maybe not anymore idk i loose intrest in relationships after a couple weeks so I've stopped looking

[–] arp@lemmy.studio 6 points 1 year ago

I have no idea, frankly

[–] Devonian@lemmy.blahaj.zone 6 points 1 year ago

I'm ace/grayace, so definitely queer at least! But I haven't been in a relationship with anyone of the same gender, and I don't feel random sexual attraction to them or anyone, so... maybe? I'll see I guess!

[–] danakongur@lemmy.blahaj.zone 6 points 1 year ago

mostly at least

[–] Lexica@sh.itjust.works 5 points 1 year ago

Cis White dude becoming middle aged soon:X.. But this community shares my values, humor and has always made me feel welcome on Reddit so it was natural to join here. Confused about 195 though?

Closeted transbian, so: very gay, but currently in a straight-passing relationship. My girlfriend is bi, so maybe one day we can be gay instead of pretending to be straight.

[–] bownage@beehaw.org 4 points 1 year ago

Queer ❤️‍🔥

[–] Lux@lemmy.blahaj.zone 3 points 1 year ago

Im panoramic and nonbiny

[–] henry@lemmy.blahaj.zone 3 points 1 year ago

It's interesting how most of the answers are not just "gay" or "straight" but more complex, because it definitely is for me. I'm pansexual but definitely more into girls. And cis male but wishing I could be a femboy lol

I’m trans and queer, but not exactly gay.

[–] sergio@lemmy.blahaj.zone 3 points 1 year ago

Actually gay, as opposed to...?
