The difference between Sexuality and Identity is something very simple yet something alot of people dont understand. I remember my mom being very very confused that if your nonbinary how could someone be bisexual. Or the difference between Bisexual and Bigender. So really, pay attention to the word "sexual" and "gender" at the end of every lgbtq+ labels.
@@vioblion2053 I'm pretty sure transgender doesn't automatically entail surgery but transsexual means that you had surgery to match your sex and your gender but transgender doesn't mean that they didn't have surgery only that you don't identify with the sex you've been assigned at birth
I'm graysexual, I experience only mild sexual attraction. I've had to explain graysexuality to many people but I'm true to myself so I don't really care about having to explain myself whenever I tell someone I'm graysexual.
I’m not homosexual, I’m not bisexual, I’m not heterosexual, I’m not asexual, I’m not pan sexual, I’m not questioning, and I’m definitely not a label! I like whoever I like, and I support whoever you are! ❤️🧡💛💚💙💜
@@rsky812 it's because people want to describe their sexuality in a word without needing to explain the whole concept to the person. And if you figure out you (for example) like boys, girls, etc. then just find the term for your sexuality. It's easy and that is why most people like it.
@@rsky812Because it's useful for clarifying to & interacting with others. And bc human beings love naming common things. We aren't islands. If I existed on my own, I'd have no need to have a name for myself, but friends, family and people who crush on me are going to ask why I'm not interested in anyone, or when I'm getting married & why, to which I'll have to clarify my asexuality. Which is important information since I live among them and want them to stop asking in a way that satiates their curiosity. Or if you're in a setting where mating is the goal, clarifying who you like (e.x. "bisexual") helps categorize/narrow down options more neatly to find & be found. And finally, it gives a sense of relief and self-realization after years of confusion when you figure out what you are. There's an element of expression to it, the same reason why cavemen invented writing & singing. I don't like when people, straight or queer, say there's no reason to label your sexuality. There is. You can not prefer it yourself while acknowledging it's valid for others.
Reminder: its fine to be gay, lesbian, bi, pan, straight, trans, cis, ace, allo, poly, NB, objectum, demi, grey, ficto, or anything else except harmful or insincere. You are valid and great as you are. And if you ever change then thats valid and fine too.
@@erwinrommel6987 I suspect you are not being sincere. I have only two criteria in accepting someone's self-identification: they must be sincere (so no doing a Lauren Southern or Piers Morgan), and they must have a 'followable' reason for their identification (even if I disagree with their reasoning, so long as it has some justification and isn't babbling).
@@breadsalmon you can sexually attracted to people, but not romantically attracted to them. being aro bi means you don’t feel romantic attraction but you’re sexually attracted to people
That’s really sad. I’m sorry😕 I hope things go well for you, don’t give up! You are perfect just the way you are! I’m a straight, cis girl (well more specifically demi, but still just attracted to men.) so I can’t give the best advice. But I’m routing for you!
to clarify I'm not someone who won't accept you, I'm just sayin I seen a lot of people come out and then get kicked out. then again I grew up a while ago, shit changes.
I’m not sure if I’m ace or not. I definitely feel attraction and I’d like to cuddle maybe, but I just don’t feel sexual attraction. So far I’ve been “the only straight child in my family” (Bi, pan, aromantic, and me). I want a relationship, but I’ve always classified things like hugging as romantic and don’t hug family members because hugs are about as special as I can be with a person. My family thinks it’s some weird PTSD, which is why I’ve been so skeptical of if I’m actually ace or not. I mean, I was young when the incident they’re referencing happened (11-ish), it was long before a person would feel sexual attraction. I’ve never been able to convince my family and friends that I’m actually ace because they know about “the issue.”
Ok this is me I’m not sexually attached to people i just prefer a big hug, cuddles, short kiss(no bad stuff) and someone who actually cares about my pronouns.
I'm very sorry that happened to you. Take your time, nobody's forcing you to come up with a label. Although what you're describing sounds very ace to me.
I'm not sure. I think I may have had feelings for one person once (or at least was interested in dating them) though I'm pretty sure I don't feel romantic attraction anymore. There was also another girl I seem to be on the fence of weather or not I liked her.
I figured out that Im Bi and that I am falling hard for my best friend (girl). Im scared that if i told her i have feelings for her, she might be straight and that would end up ruining our friendship-
Well, I hope things go well for you! If you wanted to try at all you could always ask her what her preferences are. It wouldn’t have to come across as romantic. I feel like that is a pretty normal question to anyone who isn’t homophobic.
Probably ask her if she's straight and if she asks why just say i just wanna know or it's just a joke but I want a honest answer and say I support you just in case (I'm late just noticed)
Ok I'm going to guess something because I'm a bit confused and correct me if I am wrong. So, I know asexual is when you feel no sexual attraction to anyone, so I'm going to guess aromantic is when you feel no romantic feelings toward anybody? If so then I think I've found what I identify as, even if I'm only on step 2 at the moment. I'm gonna finish the video. lol Edit: Now I'm a little confused.. so, you can be romantically attracted to someone and sexually attracted to someone. But in my situation I really feel neither of these things toward anyone.. so now I don't know anymore... Please help p-q Edit 2: Read a comment. No longer confused. I identify as asexual and aromantic :>
Eyy join the confused club! Always awkward when friends start talking about crushes? Yes sire! Most of the time people don't remember I don't wanna bang people? Yes sire!
I am round about the same age and I'm lesbian. There isn't a wrong time to feel that way. If you are sure about your sexuality, then you probably are and that's fine!
same girl except she put her head on my shoulder, and I got butterflies. That's when I first started questioning my sexuality, bc before I kinda assumed that the default was straight even tho it's not.
If you felt something then more than likely you are. I know what you mean by that and it really does suck to not be able to tell them. I had to stick with the feelings for 3 or 2 years. I later told my sister who didn’t believe me. But trust me you more than likely are. No matter the age. I recommend looking back at your childhood friends. Girl or boy. You might even figure out you had a crush on a girl without even knowing what different sexuality’s were
Haha, same. I mean, I "dated" a boy and thought I had a crush on the other but now I'm just not really sure. I need a bit more time to fivure out, so right now I'm delaing with my mess of a gender.
To be bisexual you don't have to like 50 50 to boys and girls like me I'm a bit more sexually and romaticly attracted to boys but for woman I have to have a bit of a bond first and I'm more romantically but still sexually also take your time don't rush things
same lol - im still exploring to see if i actually am attracted to boys or not. edit: i did some digging on the sexuality wiki, and i now believe that I am either finsexual or femmesexual. I am attracted to women, along with more feminine-looking men and enbys.
@@raedotnet4534 hi there! heads up: don’t group people into trans and cis when talking about sexualities and what genders you’re attracted to, just label them as what they are, without the add ons! i’ve found that it can actually be harmful in some cases and is a way of invalidating someone’s gender c:
me: Finally a Pan buddyyyyyyy!! It took so long to find youuuu! also me: *sees your comment saying you didn't need help* howwwwwww (i literally just found out im pan a few minuets ago bc of a random sexuality test on TH-cam)
1:59 thanks for this! This is the thing my mom was most confused about when I came out as bi. I’m romantically attracted not sexually. I’m to young for that.
I've been exploring my sexuality a lot recently and for now I've "declared" myself as Demisexual and Biromantic because it's the most fitting for me. This video really helped me understand sexualities and almost confirm mine!
so far I only know I am not hetero. I still in confusion and unable to get appropriate labels on me about these. I feel complicated about myself and not fit in typical cases on web. When searching in web for info, the more I read I more is feel stressful and dizzy. I know what I want and feel, but describe it need lots of words. My parents not much care and simply reply 'labeling is bad, no one is always fit. person are unique. just live happily' And I went dial to LGBT+ support hotline, the guy on other side said, "labels will not make your life easier and happier. and your parents are right. since you have no issue with ppl around you, just live whatever you want" So, I am not exactly coming out, also not really in closet. But I feel a bit insecure about these. Idk what I am. I fear I will hurt my future potential partner if I meet someone good. I feel so hard to explain. I worry that maybe all my issue is just me having too much fantasy. Or, I just sub consciously want to be special? I just mess up. my mind mangled.
I liked my friend because she’s quite beautiful in my vision, we are both artistic. We stick around each other most in school (because idk her address) we help each other when hurt, I’m pretty sure she has a crush on me to, but I’m still not sure. She does call me traitor when I play with someone else at school. Please tell me if that would be a sign of love in the comments.
@@SomeoneYouDontKnow014 of course! Genderfluid means your gender changes over time, and aroace means you have no romantic or sexual attraction to anyone
Depending on ur age, u will be at different stages on this journey. Really. *me figuring out I was lesbian at ten years of age and already having 3 exes at 12:*
Me: *when you're 18 and questioning your sexuality because you're parent(s) taught you "Guys date girls, girls date guys, and everyone is born with their gender. There is no changing any of this." and you were too scared to question them* Um. . .
@@lordfreeza_ Sorry, I know I was probably confusing. I was too coward to stand up to my scary parent. And she was most strict about the old fashion rules she believed in. Now, I'm questioning my sexuality, because I don't know if I just like guys. But I had never thought about girls that way, because well, it was "against my parent's personal set of rules" to think dating other girl or anything else. My parent has their opinions of the LGBTQ+ community, but I never had such opinions. In fact, most of the people I know are LGBTQ+. But I'm just wondering if I'm not just straight. Does that make more sense? I hope it does. I just tried to sum it up.
This is a great video! I'm panromantic and asexual; I first identified as asexual when I was around 13, and at the time I had trouble differentiating between romantic and sexual attraction (which can obviously be explained by the fact that to this day I still have never felt sexual attraction), so I identified as aromantic as well for a short while. Most of the people around me would generally dismiss me when I came out (gotta love ace erasure), and around the age of 15 I had convinced myself that I was a panromantic pansexual as a result of both my internal difficulty differentiating between orientations as well as others' expectations of me. I only recently embraced my asexuality again in late 2019, and it's been quite liberating to allow myself to use labels I'm comfortable with rather than debate with myself like I have been for several years now. Everyone, please remember that romantic and sexual orientations are completely fluid; if you don't feel comfortable with a label for yourself, that's entirely valid. Don't force yourself to be someone you're not, and please stay safe in the process. :)
I’m personally ace and biro I’ve questioned my sexuality throughout my life but I eventually realized that I was just trying to fit in. I love your view on gender orientation & sexuality with children every time I see one of your videos or TH-cam shorts I usually agree with your perspective and it’s interesting to learn how other people think on controversial topics
I know you commented this a long time ago, but for me i was very confused on where i am specifically on the asexual spectrum, but i still identified as asexual panromantic. That was until i found the term 'omniacepomo' on lgbta wiki. I hope you look into it :D
I’m a girl (at the moment- I’m struggling to figure out if I’m non-binary or not), and in-between sapiosexual and pansexual, because sapiosexual is liking people based on their intelligence, and pansexual is liking girls, boys, non-binarys, etc., but I like people more on their personality than their intelligence, so I’m not 100% sure what I am.
Try to identify ur symptoms when u're attracted, google sexual arousal signs. Try to imagine sexual activity with ppl, how do u feel? Do u feel the same when u're looking at generally (not sexual) beautiful pictures u find pleasing compared to when u feel attracted to those ppl? What aspect makes u attracted to them? I hope this helps :)
I suppose I could give an update. For the time being, I identify as being on the aroace spectrum. The spectrum being romantic attraction, since I don't really know how to identify that
@@139G20 I was wondering the same thing. I think I maybe aromantic but there was at least one girl I was interested in dating. She lived far away so I didn't get to see her very often. It was such a long time ago that I can't remember how it felt. I was like 11 and I don't think I've had a crush since then. I'm 20 now. I'm a bit confused is it possible I don't feel romantic attraction anymore? Can sexual and romantic orientation change over time? Because some sources claim it's genetic.
my sexuality changes all the time where even i am suspiscious of myself now. it went from straight - pan - bi leaning to girls - bi leaning to boys - suddenly not feeling any attraction. it also doesnt help that i am very young. it makes me wonder whether im really a part of the community of just "following the trend" (which should not even be a trend AT ALL)
Honestly i have the same problem. I just can't figure out what it is first straight then bi then pan and now I'm just a confused mess! And the thought that I'm maybe just following "the trend" (even if its not a trend) is killing me! I'm feeling so guilty! Oof kinda happy to see that I'm not the only one.
hi you two! okay, so you both should be getting notifications for this there’s nothing wrong with having different attractions all the time- that’s actually called abrosexuality (i think)! you should probably look into that, but also, there’s nothing wrong with exploring! you could either be that or be trying to figure yourself out, and that’s perfectly fine.
This helped, I have always had the idea that as a cisgender female most words were labels, and they box you in. Reading the comments and watching this video kind of relieved some of that tension. Still not sure about identifying my sexual orientation yet though. I really HATE labels. But, as a friend of a lot of people in the LGBTQ+ community, this video is amazing. I think I'm for now just identifying as a bicurious lesbian, and see where I go from there.
I want to come out to my family and friends, but I just don’t know what I am. I’m still very young, and I’ve never really given myself a label for my sexuality. The only thing my friends know is that I’m not heterosexual. Should I just go with that for the rest of my life? “Not heterosexual”?
if you don’t know what you are, you don’t really have to! labels aren’t important (ironically, there’s a label for not wanting a label), so you could just say you’re attracted to [gender] and thats it. of course, if you want to do some digging, google’s a fabulous place to start!
I am still trying to figure out, but I am sure that I am pansexual!!! I don't care about the gender :) but the fact is, in my opinion girls are more attractive but I DONT CARE ABOUT THE GENDER‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️
I’m so confused. I’m trying to find my sexuality. I know I’m the aromantic and asexual spectrum, but I’m trying to find out what label fits me because I am attracted to most feminine people, but there’s some cases where I’m not
I'm aromantic and demisexual, I tried to come out to my parents, by they said "you just DiDnT FiNd tHe RighT PerSon".. Also, my mother always says that I will have beautiful husband and 3 kids, and it's making me REALLY uncomfortable.. I also tried to stop it, but, they shut me again.
Honestly I can’t tell if I am asexual or not. I never had any feelings towards anyone at all. Most of the time I feel like writing music, drawing, animating, or creating things more than thinking of someone else. But sometimes I feel a little jealous when other people can feel love.
I have the same thing! I'm a romantic and asexual and sometimes it can be lonely thinking about the future, but I hope one day to find a platonic partner, and I hope you find whatever you're looking for. : )
I just turned 12 and I started middle school this year and this has definitely been a question for me. I am obviously still experimenting. But this is something to come back to for me in a while.
I get it! I'm young and started sixth grade this year and middle school is usually when hormones bubble. I found out I was Bisexual and Non-Bianary in 3RD grade I was depressed and decided to try something new. My mom don't support me but that's fine I don't care. From one Bisexual to another it's easier to just experiment and try until you feel comfortable with the best Sexuality that fits you. If none do and you wanna support LGBTQIA+ That's what's called straight ally. Your straight but support the lgbtqia. So the point is experiment and get comfortable. I support you no matter what ✌️
I don’t know exactly what I am. It was about 6 months ago that I learned I can feel attracted to those of my assigned gender. But because I am heavily introverted, I don’t know for certain where my orientation begins or ends.
I'm a bicurious ace. I've only been romantically attracted to men up until now but I might've had a crush on a girl before. I definitely want to try experimenting but societal norms in my country do not allow people to be open about their sexuality or gender identity which makes it difficult even to figure out whom to be with.
I’ve been stuck at the “attraction” thing. I don’t know if i feel that or not (=if I think that the person is aesthetically good looking or I feel attracted to them)🤷♀️
It is very difficult when you have no romantic or sexual experience. That's why I often ask myself whether I'm straight or bi. I think most people at 23 already know their orientation(
I am Non binary and asexual. I only discovered the term non binary about 2 years ago, but I always knew I was it, just didn’t know there was a word for it. I found out when I was looking online, as we do, I was trying to figure out my sexuality, as I assumed I was just a tomboy. I was about 21 and had been thinking I was a lesbian, and that was only because I hadn’t felt any attraction to any guys and I was a tomboy so people assumed I was a lesbian and I started to think that must be it. But after a while of trying things out, I hadn’t felt anything towards girls either. And then I googled it and went down a rabbit hole. But after about 2 years of figuring stuff out, I’m pretty sure I’m just ace. People still tell me I’m just a late bloomer, but I know I’m not. And I am okay with that,it took me a while, but I learned to accept me as me. I’m still learning every day and decided not to hide me anymore. I know that if someone had told me that being non binary existed when I was a kid, I woud be over the moon, to know that I’m not alone, so I hope to be that person to someone else.
Same. I just learned the word non-binary relatively recently and have only been out for 2 weeks now to some close friends. However I have always felt like I’m neither fully a woman or a man, now I just know what this term is. I feel like a fraud since I didn’t come to terms with being non-binary until I was 19 which was recently for me. I’m also asexual and I’ve kinda known all along. Originally I thought I was bisexual since I thought that boys, girls and enbies are cute but I recently realized that I’m only experiencing romantic attraction to people, not any sexual attraction.
I’ve been thinking I’m aro or ace But at the same time I think women are pretty so I might be lesbian But then there is a very specific type of men that I find pretty so I might be bi Ugh I have no idea 😖
How I found about mine was kinda difficult. I never really had a crush on anyone. My friends would ship me with other boys due to me not liking any boy. So then I figured out that I’m ase but I have catholic parents so I won’t come out for a very long time..
Okay, so I don't completely know, but I know that I am more romantically attracted to non-binary people and people who don't follow typical gender roles (femboys, tomboys, etc.) but I am sexually attracted to more dominant people, does anyone know the proper term for this??
heyyy I keep scrolling through videos because I’m struggling with finding out my sexuality. I’m a Christian cis female and have kept switching between bi, straight and ace. A big part of my attractions are that I’m not sure whether it’s platonic or romantic. I say that because I’m a shy person and whenever anyone gives me attention, I automatically go to thinking I have a crush on them.
I'm still trying to work out where I am on the asexuality spectrum (Imma call it that cause that's kinda what it is) and I'm still unsure of it how its due to trauma or because I genuinely don't feel sexually attracted to people but it's getting there slowly.
Ik this is completely off topic but how should I come out to my mom that I’m lesbian she always talks about me with guys and I get worried she won’t support
So, I go to full time online school and we have this group my teacher made. One of them is named (let’s just say her name is Maya). Maya is a very sweet girl (my bestie we were getting to know each other at the time)and she needed support bc she has gon through a lot. One time in our friend groups chat idk why but I just said “LGBTQ+ RIGHTSSSSS!!!!!” And they were like yassss and my other friend told me she is LGBTQ+ (I’m still getting to know her) and me and Maya told each other we are questioning...XD
I'm at an age where pretty much everyone knows who their romantically attracted to, but I have mild philophobia (the fear of being in a romantic relationship), so I'm not sure if I'm aro or my brain just rejects all crushes and stuff. Any advice for this situation? Thanks!
personally, i cant decide whether im straight OR asexual ik im not Gay cause im not a boy ik im not lesbian because i dont show so much attaction to ladies ik im not bi because i only like to be attracted to a certain type of gender i might be asexual because idk...i love people but im not thinking of dating anytime soon...plus asexual is not just showing no attraction, you can show a little, which i do :) straight because i find some people attractive, so when i become a teen, maybe i can! But time will tell what do you guys think?
I say to my friends that im pan but in reality I'm not really sure, When I see a guy I get attracted but sometimes I don't and its the same with girls, But I'm very sure I like femboys or tomboys, I also more like romantic attraction first before sexuality attraction, I don't talk about this with my mother for my mom's not homo but my sister went the wrong path and more chosen her gf than family so my mom doesn't want me to go the same path, I'm still young and trying to find out my own flag so I think this was a bit of a help, Thank you
I first suspected that I'm ace when I was 16. Five years on that label hasn't changed at all, but I still haven't quite figured out my romantic orientation! Probably leaning towards arospec, but haven't found the one label that resonates yet.
I’m 21 and I just started questioning cause I’m a straight woman who has dated many guys but I think I have a crush on a girl. Her smile makes me feel butterflies but I’ve never felt this way towards a woman until now. I’m not sure I’m bi but idk
I'm 11 and I'm lesbian + ceterosexual. I have not told my mom because she hates the lgbtqia community but idk about my dad. Also I identify as a girl but one time I wanted to be a boy but then I wanted to be a girl again. Idk if I should stay girl or become genderfluid.....
I’m also demisexual! I always felt it hard to feel sexually attracted to someone just by looking at them. Some of my friends feel sexually attracted to someone just by one look but I don’t I always found that strange.
@@lordfreeza_ kinda but not really. for pan you are attracted to people due to personality but for bi you are attracted to both by any reason (eg: looks)
@@lordfreeza_ actually it isn’t! Pansexual is you are attracted to mostly personality, race, or features! You don’t care about gender or even sexual orientation! But bisexual is attracted to only girls and boys. Some people say non binary people are included in bisexual but I think that just makes you omi.
@@luckysmarie7524 if someones only attracted to blondes is that a sexuality? No A man who only likes blonde women and a man who only likes brunette women aren't two different sexualitys... they are the same sexuality with different preferences...
I thought I was greysexual and only felt any sort of romantic feelings for guys, but I've always have a profound love for women. Like, I've been told I "give off" lesbian or bi vibes, and I've been kinda exploring to see where i lie. I've only dated guys, and never had feelings for a female. Even so, I end up didpising the thought of having a relationship with any guy and get sickened by it. I'm still a maturing female, so I hopefully have time to figure myself out.
i am pretty sure i am pansexual i was confused for a bit thinking i was bisexual now all i have to do is come out to my parents. i also have a story about how i told my best friend who is a girl me being also a girl that i had feelings for her she then avoided me for a day then came up to me after and asked if we were still friends. to that i said yes just in case but also because were friends.
Panromantic and Pansexual Woman, and I wish that resources and understanding like this were available when I was figuring myself out originally! Thank you!
That was one of the most perplexing videos I've ever come across. A lot of TV media has broadened my horizons on different sexual orientations, but I prefer dating men. Besides, I've never been in a serious relationship with one, because I can be slightly timid around people I don't know well.
I am like straight mix with genderfluid and I’m in the closest, I usually have to lie to some peolpe and say that I’m straight because I am scared I will be made fun of, I want to move to a new school so bad!
I count myself as bisexual...but unable to do anything below the waist because of my current position in my transition...mixed with my own debilitating dysphoria and squeamishness...
The difference between Sexuality and Identity is something very simple yet something alot of people dont understand. I remember my mom being very very confused that if your nonbinary how could someone be bisexual. Or the difference between Bisexual and Bigender.

@@breadsalmon you can sexually attracted to people, but not romantically attracted to them. being aro bi means you don’t feel romantic attraction but you’re sexually attracted to people
@@prod4kay ohh ok. ty!
@@breadsalmon and to correct myself even more, bisexual means being attracted to 2 or more genders, so not all "people", that would be pansexual
@@prod4kay so they are sexually attracted but not romantically?? How?

That’s really sad. I’m sorry😕 I hope things go well for you, don’t give up! You are perfect just the way you are! I’m a straight, cis girl (well more specifically demi, but still just attracted to men.) so I can’t give the best advice. But I’m routing for you!
Lol
I hope you’re doing well it it may be tough but the community supports you! 🏳️🌈

Nvm update y'all haha guess who is bi
I’m 15 year old guy, and I’m pretty confident that I’m straight, but I think I might be bi. This video definitely helped.
tusk act 4 pfp?
to clarify I'm not someone who won't accept you, I'm just sayin I seen a lot of people come out and then get kicked out. then again I grew up a while ago, shit changes.
Same
I used to confuse wanting male attention with being attracted to them, the lesbian masterdoc really helped me.
I’m not sure if I’m ace or not. I definitely feel attraction and I’d like to cuddle maybe, but I just don’t feel sexual attraction. So far I’ve been “the only straight child in my family” (Bi, pan, aromantic, and me). I want a relationship, but I’ve always classified things like hugging as romantic and don’t hug family members because hugs are about as special as I can be with a person. My family thinks it’s some weird PTSD, which is why I’ve been so skeptical of if I’m actually ace or not. I mean, I was young when the incident they’re referencing happened (11-ish), it was long before a person would feel sexual attraction. I’ve never been able to convince my family and friends that I’m actually ace because they know about “the issue.”
Ok this is me I’m not sexually attached to people i just prefer a big hug, cuddles, short kiss(no bad stuff) and someone who actually cares about my pronouns.
I'm very sorry that happened to you. Take your time, nobody's forcing you to come up with a label. Although what you're describing sounds very ace to me.
I'm not sure. I think I may have had feelings for one person once (or at least was interested in dating them) though I'm pretty sure I don't feel romantic attraction anymore. There was also another girl I seem to be on the fence of weather or not I liked her.
I figured out that Im Bi and that I am falling hard for my best friend (girl). Im scared that if i told her i have feelings for her, she might be straight and that would end up ruining our friendship-
Well, I hope things go well for you! If you wanted to try at all you could always ask her what her preferences are. It wouldn’t have to come across as romantic. I feel like that is a pretty normal question to anyone who isn’t homophobic.
That's the same with me but my bestie is lesbian
ty for the support ^^ Funny thing is that she confessed to me. I'm rlly happy ^^
@@mbeatshoney6152 Oh wow, congrats!
Probably ask her if she's straight and if she asks why just say i just wanna know or it's just a joke but I want a honest answer and say I support you just in case (I'm late just noticed)
Ok I'm going to guess something because I'm a bit confused and correct me if I am wrong.
So, I know asexual is when you feel no sexual attraction to anyone, so I'm going to guess aromantic is when you feel no romantic feelings toward anybody?
If so then I think I've found what I identify as, even if I'm only on step 2 at the moment.
I'm gonna finish the video. lol
Edit: Now I'm a little confused.. so, you can be romantically attracted to someone and sexually attracted to someone. But in my situation I really feel neither of these things toward anyone.. so now I don't know anymore... Please help p-q
Edit 2: Read a comment. No longer confused. I identify as asexual and aromantic :>

Um i don't know if. Im bi or not and i 11 pretty young when i saw this girl something felt like i liked her or something tingled in my stomach.
I am round about the same age and I'm lesbian. There isn't a wrong time to feel that way. If you are sure about your sexuality, then you probably are and that's fine!
same girl except she put her head on my shoulder, and I got butterflies. That's when I first started questioning my sexuality, bc before I kinda assumed that the default was straight even tho it's not.
maybe you should grow up and see what happens
If you felt something then more than likely you are. I know what you mean by that and it really does suck to not be able to tell them. I had to stick with the feelings for 3 or 2 years. I later told my sister who didn’t believe me. But trust me you more than likely are. No matter the age. I recommend looking back at your childhood friends. Girl or boy. You might even figure out you had a crush on a girl without even knowing what different sexuality’s were
idk if im bisexual and have a strong preference for women, or im just a lesbian lmao
Haha, same. I mean, I "dated" a boy and thought I had a crush on the other but now I'm just not really sure. I need a bit more time to fivure out, so right now I'm delaing with my mess of a gender.
To be bisexual you don't have to like 50 50 to boys and girls like me I'm a bit more sexually and romaticly attracted to boys but for woman I have to have a bit of a bond first and I'm more romantically but still sexually also take your time don't rush things
same lol - im still exploring to see if i actually am attracted to boys or not.
edit: i did some digging on the sexuality wiki, and i now believe that I am either finsexual or femmesexual. I am attracted to women, along with more feminine-looking men and enbys.

1:59 thanks for this! This is the thing my mom was most confused about when I came out as bi. I’m romantically attracted not sexually. I’m to young for that.
I've been exploring my sexuality a lot recently and for now I've "declared" myself as Demisexual and Biromantic because it's the most fitting for me. This video really helped me understand sexualities and almost confirm mine!
so far I only know I am not hetero. I still in confusion and unable to get appropriate labels on me about these. I feel complicated about myself and not fit in typical cases on web.
When searching in web for info, the more I read I more is feel stressful and dizzy. I know what I want and feel, but describe it need lots of words.
My parents not much care and simply reply 'labeling is bad, no one is always fit. person are unique. just live happily'
And I went dial to LGBT+ support hotline, the guy on other side said, "labels will not make your life easier and happier. and your parents are right. since you have no issue with ppl around you, just live whatever you want"
So, I am not exactly coming out, also not really in closet. But I feel a bit insecure about these. Idk what I am. I fear I will hurt my future potential partner if I meet someone good. I feel so hard to explain. I worry that maybe all my issue is just me having too much fantasy. Or, I just sub consciously want to be special? I just mess up. my mind mangled.

@@lordfreeza_ Sorry, I know I was probably confusing. I was too coward to stand up to my scary parent. And she was most strict about the old fashion rules she believed in. Now, I'm questioning my sexuality, because I don't know if I just like guys. But I had never thought about girls that way, because well, it was "against my parent's personal set of rules" to think dating other girl or anything else. My parent has their opinions of the LGBTQ+ community, but I never had such opinions. In fact, most of the people I know are LGBTQ+. But I'm just wondering if I'm not just straight. Does that make more sense? I hope it does. I just tried to sum it up.

@@tronontouch9925 Thanks. . .
This is a great video! I'm panromantic and asexual; I first identified as asexual when I was around 13, and at the time I had trouble differentiating between romantic and sexual attraction (which can obviously be explained by the fact that to this day I still have never felt sexual attraction), so I identified as aromantic as well for a short while. Most of the people around me would generally dismiss me when I came out (gotta love ace erasure), and around the age of 15 I had convinced myself that I was a panromantic pansexual as a result of both my internal difficulty differentiating between orientations as well as others' expectations of me. I only recently embraced my asexuality again in late 2019, and it's been quite liberating to allow myself to use labels I'm comfortable with rather than debate with myself like I have been for several years now. Everyone, please remember that romantic and sexual orientations are completely fluid; if you don't feel comfortable with a label for yourself, that's entirely valid. Don't force yourself to be someone you're not, and please stay safe in the process. :)
I literally just woke up with the tiniest seed of doubt and now I’m just watching every video
it sure took me long ass time to realize i'm asexual and aromantic. it was hard but i'm glad that i love no one 😩
I am and the same way
I’m personally ace and biro I’ve questioned my sexuality throughout my life but I eventually realized that I was just trying to fit in. I love your view on gender orientation & sexuality with children every time I see one of your videos or TH-cam shorts I usually agree with your perspective and it’s interesting to learn how other people think on controversial topics
after watching this, i'm not sure whether i'm pansexual or panromantic + asexual. but thanks anyway :')
I know you commented this a long time ago, but for me i was very confused on where i am specifically on the asexual spectrum, but i still identified as asexual panromantic. That was until i found the term 'omniacepomo' on lgbta wiki. I hope you look into it :D
I like that there are a variety of people here in the comments
It makes me feel welcomed
I’m a girl (at the moment- I’m struggling to figure out if I’m non-binary or not), and in-between sapiosexual and pansexual, because sapiosexual is liking people based on their intelligence, and pansexual is liking girls, boys, non-binarys, etc., but I like people more on their personality than their intelligence, so I’m not 100% sure what I am.
HELP I GOT THE “GAY TEST” AD UNDER THE VIDEO ITS PERFECT-💀✋
Pride is not the opposite of shame, but it's source. True humility is the only antidote to shame.
How do you know if you're attracted to someone (romantically or sexually) or whether you just find them nice or aesthetically pleasing?
(I'm 14)
Try to identify ur symptoms when u're attracted, google sexual arousal signs. Try to imagine sexual activity with ppl, how do u feel? Do u feel the same when u're looking at generally (not sexual) beautiful pictures u find pleasing compared to when u feel attracted to those ppl? What aspect makes u attracted to them? I hope this helps :)
I suppose I could give an update. For the time being, I identify as being on the aroace spectrum. The spectrum being romantic attraction, since I don't really know how to identify that
@@139G20 I was wondering the same thing. I think I maybe aromantic but there was at least one girl I was interested in dating. She lived far away so I didn't get to see her very often. It was such a long time ago that I can't remember how it felt. I was like 11 and I don't think I've had a crush since then. I'm 20 now. I'm a bit confused is it possible I don't feel romantic attraction anymore? Can sexual and romantic orientation change over time? Because some sources claim it's genetic.
Im confused if im gay or bisexual but sometimes i feel straight so its starting to get very confusing
my sexuality changes all the time where even i am suspiscious of myself now. it went from straight - pan - bi leaning to girls - bi leaning to boys - suddenly not feeling any attraction.
it also doesnt help that i am very young. it makes me wonder whether im really a part of the community of just "following the trend" (which should not even be a trend AT ALL)
Honestly i have the same problem. I just can't figure out what it is first straight then bi then pan and now I'm just a confused mess! And the thought that I'm maybe just following "the trend" (even if its not a trend) is killing me! I'm feeling so guilty! Oof kinda happy to see that I'm not the only one.
hi you two! okay, so you both should be getting notifications for this
there’s nothing wrong with having different attractions all the time- that’s actually called abrosexuality (i think)! you should probably look into that, but also, there’s nothing wrong with exploring! you could either be that or be trying to figure yourself out, and that’s perfectly fine.
This helped, I have always had the idea that as a cisgender female most words were labels, and they box you in. Reading the comments and watching this video kind of relieved some of that tension. Still not sure about identifying my sexual orientation yet though. I really HATE labels. But, as a friend of a lot of people in the LGBTQ+ community, this video is amazing. I think I'm for now just identifying as a bicurious lesbian, and see where I go from there.
I want to come out to my family and friends, but I just don’t know what I am. I’m still very young, and I’ve never really given myself a label for my sexuality. The only thing my friends know is that I’m not heterosexual. Should I just go with that for the rest of my life? “Not heterosexual”?
if you don’t know what you are, you don’t really have to! labels aren’t important (ironically, there’s a label for not wanting a label), so you could just say you’re attracted to [gender] and thats it. of course, if you want to do some digging, google’s a fabulous place to start!
Thank god there are people like you online to help 11 year olds figure out their gender and sexual identity!!! So helpful, so educational!
I'm just rocking default settings rn.
Does anybody have any resources for figuring things out? My journey has only been going on 4 years and it's been super confusing!
I am still trying to figure out, but I am sure that I am pansexual!!! I don't care about the gender :) but the fact is, in my opinion girls are more attractive but I DONT CARE ABOUT THE GENDER‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️

I’m so confused. I’m trying to find my sexuality. I know I’m the aromantic and asexual spectrum, but I’m trying to find out what label fits me because I am attracted to most feminine people, but there’s some cases where I’m not
Uhh I can try to help you :)
It took me 2 years to realise that I am abro cause I changed between pan lesbian and bi and straight
Im aromantic and asexual since i didnt have any romantic feelings for anyone for 10 years
I'm aromantic and demisexual, I tried to come out to my parents, by they said "you just DiDnT FiNd tHe RighT PerSon"..
Also, my mother always says that I will have beautiful husband and 3 kids, and it's making me REALLY uncomfortable.. I also tried to stop it, but, they shut me again.
I personally am unsure at the moment i do know I’m bisexual but I might be more than just that so I’m just going with the flow lol. Love ya’ll
Honestly I can’t tell if I am asexual or not. I never had any feelings towards anyone at all. Most of the time I feel like writing music, drawing, animating, or creating things more than thinking of someone else. But sometimes I feel a little jealous when other people can feel love.
I have the same thing! I'm a romantic and asexual and sometimes it can be lonely thinking about the future, but I hope one day to find a platonic partner, and I hope you find whatever you're looking for. : )
I just turned 12 and I started middle school this year and this has definitely been a question for me. I am obviously still experimenting. But this is something to come back to for me in a while.
I get it! I'm young and started sixth grade this year and middle school is usually when hormones bubble. I found out I was Bisexual and Non-Bianary in 3RD grade I was depressed and decided to try something new. My mom don't support me but that's fine I don't care. From one Bisexual to another it's easier to just experiment and try until you feel comfortable with the best Sexuality that fits you. If none do and you wanna support LGBTQIA+ That's what's called straight ally. Your straight but support the lgbtqia. So the point is experiment and get comfortable. I support you no matter what ✌️
I don’t know exactly what I am. It was about 6 months ago that I learned I can feel attracted to those of my assigned gender. But because I am heavily introverted, I don’t know for certain where my orientation begins or ends.
Thank you as person who has been questioning if I'm pan or bi or straight or lesbain or other this really help
I'm a bicurious ace. I've only been romantically attracted to men up until now but I might've had a crush on a girl before. I definitely want to try experimenting but societal norms in my country do not allow people to be open about their sexuality or gender identity which makes it difficult even to figure out whom to be with.
I’ve been stuck at the “attraction” thing. I don’t know if i feel that or not (=if I think that the person is aesthetically good looking or I feel attracted to them)🤷♀️
2:36 I love this actually because it’s really really affirming to the younger people watching!!
I’m demisexual biromantic :> I came out to my 2 best friends and they both came out as bisexual to me :D we call ourselves the bi gang now lol
Congratulations
Omg it happened to me too lol
It is very difficult when you have no romantic or sexual experience. That's why I often ask myself whether I'm straight or bi. I think most people at 23 already know their orientation(
I am Non binary and asexual. I only discovered the term non binary about 2 years ago, but I always knew I was it, just didn’t know there was a word for it. I found out when I was looking online, as we do, I was trying to figure out my sexuality, as I assumed I was just a tomboy.
I was about 21 and had been thinking I was a lesbian, and that was only because I hadn’t felt any attraction to any guys and I was a tomboy so people assumed I was a lesbian and I started to think that must be it. But after a while of trying things out, I hadn’t felt anything towards girls either. And then I googled it and went down a rabbit hole. But after about 2 years of figuring stuff out, I’m pretty sure I’m just ace. People still tell me I’m just a late bloomer, but I know I’m not. And I am okay with that,it took me a while, but I learned to accept me as me. I’m still learning every day and decided not to hide me anymore. I know that if someone had told me that being non binary existed when I was a kid, I woud be over the moon, to know that I’m not alone, so I hope to be that person to someone else.
Same. I just learned the word non-binary relatively recently and have only been out for 2 weeks now to some close friends. However I have always felt like I’m neither fully a woman or a man, now I just know what this term is. I feel like a fraud since I didn’t come to terms with being non-binary until I was 19 which was recently for me. I’m also asexual and I’ve kinda known all along. Originally I thought I was bisexual since I thought that boys, girls and enbies are cute but I recently realized that I’m only experiencing romantic attraction to people, not any sexual attraction.
I’ve been thinking I’m aro or ace
But at the same time I think women are pretty so I might be lesbian
But then there is a very specific type of men that I find pretty so I might be bi
Ugh I have no idea 😖
It’s important to note that I don’t have a desire for sex, but I also am not entirely on the idea of romance
I think most of the attraction is aesthetic
Might be the pandemic, but I literally find any romantic gesture really 🤢
But I still want to hug people, just in a platonic way
You can still think people are pretty/attractive even if you are aro/ace
How I found about mine was kinda difficult. I never really had a crush on anyone. My friends would ship me with other boys due to me not liking any boy. So then I figured out that I’m ase but I have catholic parents so I won’t come out for a very long time..
hey! we’re having the same experience, you aren’t alone :)
everybody: talking about the 30+ flags (why is one called bear?)
me: gay, lesbian or straight.
I am also demi I realized that I was because after looking at the definition I realized I was also demi.
Okay, so I don't completely know, but I know that I am more romantically attracted to non-binary people and people who don't follow typical gender roles (femboys, tomboys, etc.) but I am sexually attracted to more dominant people, does anyone know the proper term for this??
No I am sorry :( but I am also trying to figure out what my sexuality is
heyyy I keep scrolling through videos because I’m struggling with finding out my sexuality.
I’m a Christian cis female and have kept switching between bi, straight and ace. A big part of my attractions are that I’m not sure whether it’s platonic or romantic. I say that because I’m a shy person and whenever anyone gives me attention, I automatically go to thinking I have a crush on them.
I'm still trying to work out where I am on the asexuality spectrum (Imma call it that cause that's kinda what it is) and I'm still unsure of it how its due to trauma or because I genuinely don't feel sexually attracted to people but it's getting there slowly.
I'm Aeroase and Non-Binary!
Ik this is completely off topic but how should I come out to my mom that I’m lesbian she always talks about me with guys and I get worried she won’t support

I first suspected that I'm ace when I was 16. Five years on that label hasn't changed at all, but I still haven't quite figured out my romantic orientation! Probably leaning towards arospec, but haven't found the one label that resonates yet.
I’m 21 and I just started questioning cause I’m a straight woman who has dated many guys but I think I have a crush on a girl. Her smile makes me feel butterflies but I’ve never felt this way towards a woman until now. I’m not sure I’m bi but idk
Ok…so… I was born a girl, always liked girls (lesbian) but I recently came out as queer. So what would be my sexual orientation?
I got an ad for praying on my way to watch this video 💀💀
I'm 11 and I'm lesbian + ceterosexual. I have not told my mom because she hates the lgbtqia community but idk about my dad. Also I identify as a girl but one time I wanted to be a boy but then I wanted to be a girl again. Idk if I should stay girl or become genderfluid.....
When i was 11 i thought the same, but i just realised im a straight female of a female birth sex 😂 (this is not hate or something)
I’m also demisexual! I always felt it hard to feel sexually attracted to someone just by looking at them. Some of my friends feel sexually attracted to someone just by one look but I don’t I always found that strange.
bisexuality: * breathes *
me: aye! that’s me!
pansexuality: no it isn’t.

I thought I was greysexual and only felt any sort of romantic feelings for guys, but I've always have a profound love for women. Like, I've been told I "give off" lesbian or bi vibes, and I've been kinda exploring to see where i lie. I've only dated guys, and never had feelings for a female. Even so, I end up didpising the thought of having a relationship with any guy and get sickened by it. I'm still a maturing female, so I hopefully have time to figure myself out.
i am pretty sure i am pansexual i was confused for a bit thinking i was bisexual now all i have to do is come out to my parents. i also have a story about how i told my best friend who is a girl me being also a girl that i had feelings for her she then avoided me for a day then came up to me after and asked if we were still friends. to that i said yes just in case but also because were friends.
Panromantic and Pansexual Woman, and I wish that resources and understanding like this were available when I was figuring myself out originally! Thank you!
That was one of the most perplexing videos I've ever come across. A lot of TV media has broadened my horizons on different sexual orientations, but I prefer dating men. Besides, I've never been in a serious relationship with one, because I can be slightly timid around people I don't know well.
me being 11 and watching 👁🫦👁
Me, who already knows I'm straight: Let's watch!
I am in fact 12 but I do think I have a clear view that I’m polysexual and bigender
I mean I feel straight but some people call me gay when I'm not which has make me question mine I feel straight but it's so confusing
I am like straight mix with genderfluid and I’m in the closest, I usually have to lie to some peolpe and say that I’m straight because I am scared I will be made fun of, I want to move to a new school so bad!

I just came out as bi to my friend today and she was so excited!! Thanks for you previous tips larenzo
I count myself as bisexual...but unable to do anything below the waist because of my current position in my transition...mixed with my own debilitating dysphoria and squeamishness...
can you find your sexuality if you just look at someone from your gender, like have thoughts?
