Let's play the label game

[Wheatley]

Hey,

So the easiest way to put it is that I'm not straight. I don't personally identify as anything because I don't want stereotypes being applied to me (and from what I've experienced, I'm fat from normal). But in the case where I need to identify as something I need to have a name to hand in those situations where I can't explain myself.

I'm a boy and I'm mostly attracted to other boys, however, I don't rule out the possibility of getting with a girl (even though I've been with boys but not girls). For the past year or so I've been having very null feelings for the sexuals. The idea of being with someone for the emotional connection far outweighs the idea of being with someone for their genitals (making me think I'm pansexual), however, I prefer the idea of a feminine guy's body than a girl's (and a dick is the preferred genital set).

I'm also planning to come out to my parents this Christmas, and for outsiders, I need a label I can use to most accurately sum me up.

Thanks, if this is too confusing, let me know xD

I think bisexual might be the label you're looking for. If you find pansexual as more fitting, that's fine too but if you're planning to come out as pan then you might want to note that a lot of people don't understand pan. As I've noticed, bi is an easier label to both understand and explain.

I agree with Hudor, but why set a time frame for coming out, you shouldn't rush into things you don't fully understand yourself even, let alone tell others and hope they understand too, labels help figure yourself out, but there's no rush to be putting a label on your head for everyone to see and/or manipulate or whatever if they don't understand you, figure yourself out first

Yeh, don't rush labeling yourself. There are different degrees of bisexuality, I'm bi but I'm more into girls than guys. As you're more into guys then you'd probably be more towards the gay side but if you are in to girls then you are still bisexual. Don't rush giving yourself a label, figure yourself out.

Don't rush to label yourself. How'd it go?

Sound like pansexual, but there are many other "labels" that you might associate better with
