It sounds so exhausting to live like that ngl

it is, i was like that (except not a dick about it) for a long time until i managed to become comfortable with the idea of being ostensibly bi. And i don't even live in a place where most people give a shit, i'd just grown up thinking i'm straight therefore i'm straight, duhhhhh

Streight defaultism and cis normalism are both problems that if eliminated would prevent so many problems.

honestly i'm a proponent of just not talking about gender and sexuality anymore, let the concepts be a part of a bygone era.

People are people and people are varying amounts of attracted to different people, there's little point in making it any more precise than that unless you're looking for porn or a date. Why have 7 billion neopronouns when we can just stop giving a fuck what random people find attractive?

Preach! Don’t understand why it’s so hard to live and let live when it comes to gender and sexuality.
