I've been thinking about this for a while, and here is my issues with 'demisexuality'. To be 'Demisexual' means that you are putting 'normal' sexuality into a box. I think that's where a lot of the 'slut shaming' stuff comes from. When you say "No, this is what a sexual does, and I am the other, and so I am my own sexuality' when their experiences match exactly what most other "normal sexuals' experience, well...you're basically saying to be a non-demisexual, you'd have to be hypersexual. And sexuality doesn't work that way. It's fluid, and comes and goes, and is never exactly the same.

It's pretty asinine to say "Well, I only have sexual attraction to people I love so, I am different!". It'd be if, say, a bunch of red heads said they wear hats, and so they aren't exactly the same as other redheads, so they need a different name for their hair color. But, tons of other redheads wear hats, too. So it makes zero sense to differentiate between the two.

Not really, no.
