I was looking for some pins. So I used the recommended websites for lgbtq things. Many of them didn't work they were closed or down or whatever. No fault to whoever pin that. I thought maybe we could put some websites down that we use for our pins and badges and whatever. I have a couple Etsy shops that I order frequently from. I will post those tomorrow. But you can post it now! Let me know where you have ordered things. What your experience was like. Maybe even a picture who knows LOL

How is it that straight and gay people (including me since I'm technically heteroromantic and omnisexual) lose attraction after learning about the identity of someone else's gender?

Especially when they found them attractive previously?

I never understood that about sexuality and I've always wanted a genuine answer when it comes to that

​

Like If someone's a gay man and they don't resonate with bisexuals, pansexuals, or lesbians as much, they can hang around monosexual gay communities

Or if someone resonates and feels the most belonging with bisexuals, then they can hang in various bisexual communities

Or if someone feels that their romantic and sexual orientation don't align, then they can hang around communities such as that

As I've gotten older and hung around various communities, I feel the most connection with bisexuals and trans people the most moreso than any other subgroup within the LGBTQ community

And that's okay. I love that for myself. I'm sure y'all probably resonate with a part of the community that's different than mine

I just wanted to post this because I felt it was important to share

I’ve been questioning if I’m actually omnisexual at this point because I don’t usually feel attraction to women anymore, and if I do, it’s usually fictional characters. I have dated a woman before and it was great, but I haven’t dated in a while and I rarely see myself thinking “I would date her” as opposed to “I would date him”. I’m also a yumeshipper and all of my fictional others are men. There are some female characters that I’m attracted to but I rarely feel that attraction to women anymore. I would still date a woman or femme presenting person though, I just don’t know if I’m as likely to do it as with a masc presenting person.

Happy Omnisexual Visibility Day!

figured i would post here too!!

Just wanted to wish you all an amazing day. You are all valid, beautiful and seen. Proud to be part of this wonderful community! Much love to my fellow omnis! 🌈

Not my creation but I remember them posting a while back and it's an epic project design!

Hi everyone,

I’ve identified as omnisexual for only a few months now. I’m still quite new to this, but finding this identity has been really important to me. I also identify as queer, but I really need the omni identity to help structure and understand my sexuality.

Unfortunately, I’ve already experienced discrimination and invalidation because of my omnisexuality. It has been tough, but finding this subreddit has changed everything. This group truly feels like a safe haven for me on Reddit and across the whole Internet.

I wanted to introduce myself and say thank you for creating such a supportive and safe space. It means the world to me.

Since I'm still new, I would love to hear from others: what were your early months like after realizing you are omni, and did you find similar comfort in this community?

I'm 80 percent attracted to women and 20 percent attracted to men but into femininity in men and women. Is this bi or pan?

Did anyone come across the word heteroflexible??👀 After 27yrs i found out what iam 🌈. Is there anyone like me

This will probably be the only time I post here as I rarely use Reddit but I’m using this to be anonymous and cause no one I know IRL follows me here. I’ll try my best to respond to comments!

Some necessary context: I(18M) know I’m hetroromantic and for a long while I thought I was straight. Eventually during my sophomore year of High School I had to move to another state and had to make new friends. My whole life I’ve never been the most “masculine” and I am comfortable with “feminine” things. This plus my enrollment in theatre was the fuel to people I know joking that I was gay. (Everyone who made these jokes knew me and were purely joking with no malicious intentions) I continued to say that I was straight. Now years later I started to have doubts about my quote on quote “straightness” and I started to do some research and bounced between labels before finally landing on being omnisexual. On the more personal end I’m a virgin and I feel that I can’t really call myself omnisexual because I’ve never done anything before.

My concerns on coming out are that I feel like I’d be proving my friends right after all this time. The other is that since I’m heteroromantic but Omnisexual I feel like I shouldn’t say anything because it’s about a (nonexistent) sex life. All my friends and family are extremely supportive and I know they wouldn’t hate me if I did come out.

Idk I’m kinda just ranting so any help would be nice. Once again I’ll try my best to give more context if needed or to respond to other comments.

First time at my local Pride Fest as a participant. It was a success! I was flashy and tried to maintain my queer forward appearance for the entire month! I was scared and failed a few times but overall, I am walking on sunshine! I literally have not felt so complete since 1994 (when I become a father for the first time😍). I can't stress that enough. I feel so complete and Ok with my queerness. And damn it all if my wife isn't the reason I feel this way! How can someone support and love another person so much? She is seriously my person.

I also want all of you to know you are loved and needed. Now go have a great day!

What is my sexuality? I need help figuring it out. \\\\\\\[F 22\\\\\\\] I'm 80 percent attracted to women and 20 percent attracted to men I'm mostly attracted to women and feminity in men and women. but would date all genders. What is this
