My name is Matt and I'm gay as heck.
Androromantic demisexual, if you want to get really technical about it.

woops long quote
but bro when i read about this the VERY FIRST THING i thought of was aromantic and i wanted to tell you about it// so many times aromantic people didn't know what they were and learning about it being a real orientation was incredibly helpful
Anyway I'll introduce myself... Sexuality wise I'm pansexual, which wasn't too difficult for me to figure out... When I was a bit younger I thought I was bi, but after thinking about it more, pan seemed to fit better.
As for gender, I've spent a long time thinking about it, and I'm definitely some sort of non-binary, but I don't really know if I can ever pin down my exact feelings or if they're even real... Sometimes I wonder if I only think I'm nonbinary because of Tumblr and doing a lot of RP// In the process of doing RP I have to do a lot of research on stuff, and learning how to accurately portray certain traits leads me to temporarily gain things that aren't me... It's awfully confusing. I would probably be unhappy if I had to just forget about all of it and go back to being 100% feminine.. for the sake of convenience, I just let everyone think I'm a girl anyway.
I've been thinking about my gender for long enough that my first vocaloid original happens to be just about that. woop/
So, I haven't really looked in here in a while, lol. I'm glad that this thread has really taken off!
So, in personal news, I realized something about my gender. For the longest time, I was pretty sure that I was genderfluid. Lately, however, I've sort of been having doubts. I realized that I never really felt that "switch" that a lot of genderfluid people feel. I mean, the "switch" isn't immediate, but it would still be noticible, right? Well, yesterday, while I was scrolling on Tumblr, I saw a song by Shania Twain called "Man, I Feel Like a Woman", and I realized something: I think I'm bi-gendered. Evene though I had never really felt the "switch", I knew for a fact that there were definitely male and female instincts calling out to me. Or, rather, that's the only way I can explain it, lol. So yeah, that happened.
Also, in public news, I might be writing an EP involving a gay couple! I mean, the story doesn't center around them being gay, but that's sort of the point??? I'll explain more after I've gotten more work on it~

I can relate, sort of. Most of my life I would have said, "Yeah I'm a girl go binary woo" and then I learned about nonbinary identities a year or so ago (woop Tumblr for expanding my horizons) and one of my friends came out as trans, and I started thinking more about it. I liked the label "demigirl," but I felt (and still do tbh) like I'm just a cis girl reaching for a nonbinary identity. The main reason I feel like a fraud, I think, is because the side of me that isn't feminine is agender, and part of my brain doesn't see the difference between that and being cisgender. I don't know if the difference is big enough to objectively "justify" a demigirl label, but I've tried to stop worrying about it.
Sexuality wise I've kind of given up on labelling myself heheh. I'm kind of demisexual, but I feel like I swing back and forth along the spectrum in that area. I'm mostly attracted to men physically, but I can imagine myself having an intimate relationship with someone of any gender, so IDEK what to call myself.

Thanks, I've actually heard about that! I considered it a while back, but occasionally I'm like "damn, I want to be in a relationship with you" when I talk to some people, so maybe I'm a gray aromantic? (not sure if I'm using that right) Thanks for telling me about it though :D Also I really like your song!! What program did you use to make the instrumental? I love the chords :D :D

I'm Jamie (aka VeRTiGo) and I'm genderfluid and pansexual.
I've had a girlfriend and a boyfriend before, but really can feel attraction to anyone. I like who I like.
Sadly, my parents are homophobic and transphobic, and disapprove of me. When I was dating my girlfriend, they did everything in their power to keep me away from her.
In my house they censor everything relatively LGBTQIA+, and my 12 year old brother didn't know what bisexuality was until this year. When I explained it, I got yelled at. He still is so much under a rock that he thinks it's okay to call people "he-she's" (I know he doesn't mean it badly, he just doesn't know because of my mom's censorship) and still doesn't understand why it's not really okay to say that.
My mom also knows that I'm genderfluid and pan, and blatantly disrespects the fact that I like to use all pronouns by saying stuff like "You look like a boy, what are you, trans-whatty?" Honestly, I'm not sure if I should be angrier that she doesn't know what transgender is, or that she's blatantly disrespecting me.
Ugh. Parents.
Anyway, sorry for being a ranty little bitch, but there's my story.

Whelp... here I go. (though excuse me that I'll be using some "weeaboo speak" since that's how I feel they're a better word to use)
I'm kimchi-tan, and my real name is the first and last three letters of my username with a space in between. I recently turned 16 and I simply identify myself as a female (not that I'm not, but you know what I mean).
I'd consider myself as either demi-biromantic or aromantic-biromantic (I'm not sure how to use that properly but you know what I mean). Since I can get turned out by femaleshalf-naked and can (though more occassionally) get the "dokidokis" from guys, simply put I'm biromantic.
When I first told anyone about my sexuality, it was with a kohai who said she was pansexual (though we already knew that XD). Though gladly it was a light-hearted (but short) conversation. My other friends kinda didn't give a damn, but to be honest it was kinda like they didn't understand what we were talking about (the more innocent, the better I guess).

I guess I could say I'm pansexual but I don't really like to label myself. For me, I personally don't care about gender. I like people for the person they are, not for whether they are male/female/other/ect.
ooh, this is a thing
i'm asexual, aromantic and.....something gender. its either agender, bigender or genderfluid, honestly i dont know myself ;; dfab but in the process of transitioning. gender is weird, who needs it, amirite? ᕕ(ᐛ)ᕗ

This is gonna be tough for me, but I'm gonna try. *breaths*
I'm fmccaddy12, but my real name is Todd. I'm a cis male, 17, and bisexual; though I'm closet for many reasons. Only a few people really know that I'm bisexual, and for the moment I just wanna wait for the right time to come out (I mean I've tried before, but that didn't go well....). A lot of my friends, though, think I'm straight. Romantically, I'm just easy going , but I'm a bit clingy; And while I've had my share of break ups and make ups, deep down I just wanna wait for the right person; and for where I live, it's tough, but I'm patient. I'm also extremely shy, which is why I barely go into Chatbox; but I'm forcing myself to become more social. Yea....I'm kind of a mess.

I'm Scary (I would put my real name but it's pretty unusual so I feel uncomfortable sharing it online). I'm a bisexual biromantic (I think I'm closer to pan though, but I'm not sure). I'm also a demigirl (it's the most accurate label I've found for myself) and I use either she/her or they/them pronouns. I accidentally outed myself during school one day, so its not unusual for me to be bombarded with questions. The thing is though, I have never "gone out" with somebody. Not a boy or a girl or anything else. I guess I'm just waiting for the right person at the moment (hell, and there's plenty of time for that since I'm just about to turn 14)
...then again it doesn't help that I'm a weeb and everybody in my year thinks that it's weird to take an interest in languages that aren't from europe... also I'm not really interested in dating atm because I'm still a fetus.
But yeah. I'm not sure if demigirl is considered a real gender. I feel like I'm a mix of cis girl and agender, but I don't experience any kind of "switch". Demigirl seems to be that you feel like one gender but are pretty detached from it and you also feel like another gender at the same time? I don't mind identifying as cis female but I've experienced less dyphoria when I found out and started identifying as a demigirl.
god I'm rambling a bit here heh

I'm Hyong and I am ~98% girl, but I like to use male pronouns to refer to myself. I'm asexual and biromantic(?), but I have more attraction to people in images. Seeing other people having trouble with their family not accepting who they are disappoints me, because my mum is freaking awesome about it (except when it's an idol sometimes) and I feel a bit bad not experiencing what everyone else is experiencing.
Hello! I'm Zoku and I'm cismale and a identify as a bisexual with a male preference! I'm still questioning, but at the moment I'm saying I'm bi. c:
When I (subtly) came out to my mom during this year's State of the Union, she was like "why can't you just be straight/gay" and I was mortified until she said "just kidding!"

As for my gender I can't tell too much. Normally I feel I am a guy. 80% I am a man. But still I sometimes want to be a girl. I feel good when they call me as a girl. I think I can say I'm a genderfluid? Well, I don't know. XD
Well, I like men. Then homosexual I guess. Hahah ^^

well... people needs to be honest right? to be true to everyone... well, I'm... I dont know... gay maybe? I'm into guys more than girls, so yeah.
Niji Yuniko existed right after I noticed that I'm into guys.
Niji Yuniko is what the people and my friends see me as, a feminine boy who might be gay something like that, but hides the truth by being something he's not: a girl who's dream to date guys. I eventually developed it in real life... I then created characters that resembles my emotions and personality.
oh and speaking of which, I'm not a transgendered guy, nor I have intentions (no offence, really)

MOI OR HI EVERYBODY! In url I'm being called as 'Pastelli-kiwi' , 'Hellkity112' or 'jasmin00'. In irl you could call me as Jasmin or Jasu and I'm closet bisexual in real life and pretty open in here Internet. So ye I haven't told about this to my parents nor any relatives.
And in the same time I like to cross dress sometimes! I guess I could call it as a hobby of mine, ehh?
But ye I have little bit problems to come out ;; haha

Eyo~ I like posting in these kinds of threads so I can just throw my identity out there so! I'm Cdra, I go by Cdra (or Lou) IRL, I'm nonbinary gender (and they/them suits me fine). I don't feel terribly comfortable with any label more specific than that -- my personal definition for it is "a stable and distinct gender that is neither male nor female, nor anywhere in between", hence the closest term I've found is "neutrois" but people tend to associate this that and the other with the neutrois label so, I prefer to simply call myself "nonbinary" and be done with it. Plus, "enby" is a cute term!
I am a RAGING aromantic. The idea of romance involving me personally makes me uncomfortable, I don't wanna be anywhere near it, even the hint that someone has romantic feelings for me makes me be like "no thanks friend" and back away slowly. My sexual orientation on the other hand is a big ball of ??? -- I'm attracted to all genders, but whether it's just aesthetic/sensual attraction or actual sexual attraction confuses me greatly (I just know for sure it's not romantic at this point!). I tend to just say I'm graysexual for simplicity's sake; I'm not interested in sexual relationships (largely due to trust issues and the fear of the other party becoming romantically involved) so it hardly matters to anyone but me.
I'm lucky enough to be at a school where I'm pretty comfortable telling people about my gender and orientation. I sometimes don't bother with explaining my gender to classmates and professors because it's a pain, but I will make it clear if it comes up in conversation that I am not female. I am 100% okay with shouting my aromanticism to the heavens, on the other hand, though I tend to phrase it as "I am in no way interested in a relationship" or something similar.
It's taken me a very long time to get comfortable with my identity. and yet I still don't even actually know what my sexual orientation is! Good luck to all of you still questioning and trying to figure it out, and remember, identity is fluid, you don't have to be one thing your whole life! Use what terms make you comfortable and drop the ones that don't, and take your time with it. Self-discovery is a lifelong learning process. But, if you need someone to talk to about whatever you're questioning, I'm here -- not that I can provide too much, but I can at least explain my own experiences if that'll help you!
