Re: why is pansexuality ok and demisexuality not?

And...therefore their identity label is offensive?

Stop trying to relabel people. Please. If I suddenly told queer people to stop calling themselves that and call themselves anomalous instead, I'd get run out of town. If I told trans (or trans*, whichever you please) people to call themselves adjusts the same would happen.

I'm bi. The love of my life is MTF. She has no issue with me calling myself that.

And gender roles are so utterly engrained into our heads that most of the population isn't entirely comfortable around trans folks. The US makes cabaret shows in which its showcased as weird and wonderful. The UK has panto, where a man in drag is one of the main stock characters. Western society as a whole considers queer people to be a goddamn spectacle. But that doesn't mean that everyone who calls themselves bi is adhering to that and certainly doesn't mean their label should be erased except to be used ONLY by folks who are attracted to cis-gender people of either sex. -_-

No one in this thread is saying to change anything, only pointing out the misconceptions that exist and the people that help them to exist by buying into them. Everybody is getting offended all over for no reason y'all give me a headache

No. There are a LOT of people in these threads saying "bisexuality is a bad term and needs to be regulated to only people who are attracted to cisgender folks of both sexes".

A lot of what saku has been saying seems to be this.
