Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
Oh, I can be very specific.

But that's not what he said--he said they're with men. He didn't say they were women.
Well, he said they were with men, which makes people assume they are straight. So I am assuming he is talking specifically about women, unless I am totally misreading his post.
edit: OK, now I'm going back and looking at Gud's post again, and I don't actually see him saying that people are assuming they're straight, just that they're not bi. So I am fighting a slightly different fight here. Oops! Carry on...

Pansexual?
mmmMaybe. Except for the "not liking anything" times.
Well, I think there are times that most, if not all, people fall under "not liking anything," but I don't think it makes them cease to be straight/bi/gay, unless it becomes a permanent thing.
But I got NO idea of what to even call myself, so don't take my addlepated advice.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
he said they were with men, which makes people assume they are straight
No, he said they were with men which makes people assume there's no such thing as bisexual.

My male dataset is one. I think from reading the bits leading up that there was a discussion of the perception that bi means have-experimented-but-am-actually-straight for women, and actually-I'm-gay for men. I'm just saying I can see how that perception can be formed if my dataset is prevalent.

You're right, ita. I was misreading and conflating with another argument that nobody here is actually making. Sorry, Gud!

Averse to labelling?

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.
Caprisexual just makes it sound like you have a very narrow preference among the thirteen colonies.
It's interesting, because while I fully embrace and support people choosing their own label or none at all, it further complicates trying to quantify what segment of the population does not identify as heterosexual. I mean, can you imagine that census question? LGBTQI, for starters.

Clean-up on Route 66?
And perhaps for some "bi" means limiting themself by quality rather than gender. But what do I know?
