Straightttttttttttttttttt. Girls only XP  I guess straight is lesser these days...
Maybe in this specific fandom, in this specific community. But in the big wide world, straight is the huge majority.

...Sapiosexual is actually kind of ableist? You can't necessarily tell someone's intelligence by looking at them and any time I've seen it, it's been used in a holier than thou sort of way that implies it is somehow better because said sapiosexuals don't engage in sex, or to discriminate against disabled people. And even so, how does one define intelligence for these standards? Is it good grammar? The ability to do math and understand/rehearse westernized ideas that are considered "intelligent?" Formal education? The latter can also make the idea somewhat classist as well since not everyone can afford a formal education. I feel like these are the reasons why Sapiosexuality isn't listed as a 'thing,' really. It is more of a problematic term than anything else. But anyway, I digress. I'm not here to start arguments.

I consider myself a number of things; aromantic, some form of asexual with a pan preference? Sexuality is weird. I guess I could just sum it up and say my orientation is "shrug, that's cool."

Androromantic demisexual AKA gay as heck for masculine people, but most likely not interested in, well, any physical contact at all. Woohoo.

I always thought bisexual included trans people. I've been a bit questioning of whether i'm Pan or Bi recently but i've settled on Bi with a heavy preference for femboys x3
I'm perfectly fine with transgender and genderqueer people too if Bi doesn't actually encompass that.

From my (limited) understanding, bisexuals feel both an attraction to their own gender and other gender(s), which means trans people would be included in this as long as they identify with a specific gender. Pansexuality includes non-traditional identities, such as genderfluid, androgynous, etc. Since pansexuality involves attraction to anyone, bisexuality can be considered a branch of pansexuality; and yes, you can be both  ^_^

The two official genders male and female are what bisexuals attract to (of course with minor exceptions, but those are rare). Therefore (as far as I have learned during my studies), trans and other identities would not be covered by bisexuality. I for one fancy both official genders, but not every "identity"

I'm not about to give up on myself, as I have never lost hope for anyone, so why give up on the person who never has?

You can get the meaning from the words themselves

Bi = 2, so Bisexual is attracted to TWO sexes, which are male and female

Pan = Omni = All, so Pansexual is attracted to ALL sexes

People tend to over-think things, and have a need to label everything. Don't worry about it and just go with the flow.  B)
