Re: Idle musings

It's possible - my own orientation has been all over the place as I've learned new vocabulary. When I was thirteen, I came out as bisexual because I thought both girls and boys were pretty. When I was sixteen, I said I was a lesbian because the idea of being in a romantic relationship with a boy was disgusting. When I was eighteen, I said I was bisexual again because I found a man attractive, but was terribly confused because I thought he was nice to look at but wouldn't have wanted to be with him sexually.

It wasn't until my twenties (I'm in my late twenties now) that I was able to put it into words - pan/biaesthetic (in terms of who I think is visually attractive, leaning more towards feminine and androgynous people than masculine), grey homoromantic (romantically attracted to women, but it takes me an extremely long time to develop those romantic relationships - it probably is leaning a bit towards aro), and asexual. Queer, for short. This is how I would identify at this moment - there could be someone that would change that.

So I do think that age and inexperience is a part for the skew, but the opposite is also true - a lot of people will slowly learn new vocabulary and concepts, and I'd rather use phrasing like that instead of how I'd usually refer to myself - 'freak'.

But...don't most people have the ability to see that both sexes are attractive? The lack of sexual urge/attraction just means it's not part of your sexual identity. So I don't really understand the biaestetic part. Like, I find so many people nice to look at. All sorts of gender and types are attractive, but I'm only sexually attracted to women. Doesn't mean I can't find men attractive. Not trying to bash, just honestly don't get it.

It is borderline unnecessary, yeah. It can be a good counter to, "Wait, but I thought you liked women, why are you saying that he's attractive?" It's basically the, "Wow, they're hot -" response without also adding, "- I want to spend my life with them" / "- I want to have sex with them."

But yeah, if I was being succinct, that'd be the first part I'd drop, and just say that I'm romantically but not sexually attracted to women without adding that there's some very nice-looking masculine and androgynous people out there.
