09.26.16 | Okay fuck no, want to know why I'm so mad about this? My bike accident when I was a child literally left me with a multitude of brain conditions, including an almost psychotic obsession with wanting to become a woman. I dealt with it throughout most of my teen / early adult life until I finally managed to get a curb on it four years ago. It took everything I had, nothing worked, not therapy, medication, anything, I had to learn to deal with it on my own. These entitled fucks got butthurt because some people challenged their opinion in regards to being trans? They have no right to represent what I went through struggling with trans issues, when they can't even handle a few opinions. They're melodramatic, spoiled fucking children. When faced with opposition and public attention you don't back down, you keep striving for what you believe in. This isn't about fucking mental health, this is about people who had a wonderful opportunity taking the easy way out because they can't handle the fucking pressure. Fuck this band and everything they claimed to fucking stand for.

09.26.16 | Pansexuality has always been a bit of an odd concept to me, having openly identified as bisexual for 15 years.
To me it seems to be bisexuality with the caveat of openly acknowledging trans and genderqueer, which I always thought was covered by bisexuality anyway, and the necessity for a new term seems to label bisexuality as less inclusive, which in turn heightens the anti-bi stigma. But then that's just me.
As for the list, Jay Brannan's 'Housewife' is sickeningly cute. |

MercuryToHell
09.26.16 | Oh no, I don't think there was any malicious intent but I also don't think bisexuality needs any more negative publicity.

BallsDeep
09.26.16 | I always thought bisexuality referred to ones sexual orientation whereas the other terms refer to ones sexual self-identity. Could be wrong though, im no expert in the field |
ArsMoriendi
09.26.16 | @Mercury: well the bi in bisexual refers to 2, so Pansexuality tries to be the all inclusive one. I think it's a fair dichotomy, though I do see your point. |
Storm In A Teacup
09.26.16 | I'm so confused about these definitions. So I think I get bi and pan, although pan does seem to make bi inclusive, which I'm sure people didn't originally think it was at all. But what if you're a guy and you're attracted to women and transgender women? Or girl attracted to men and transgender men? What is that called and is there two different names for that? |
Asdfp277
09.26.16 | gotta get the IUPAC to do some nomenclature work up this bitch |
ArsMoriendi
09.26.16 | @Storm:
Homosexual - attracted to the same sex
Heterosexual - attracted to the opposite sex (male and female being opposites of course)
Bisexual - attracted to 2 sexes (usually male and female)
Pansexual - attracted to all sexes including non-binary ones like agender/bigender etc.
Asexual - attracted to no one (Although this can get more complicated if you count demisexual)

ArsMoriendi
09.26.16 | Seven, correct me if I'm wrong, but:
transvestite - crossdresser who isn't actually trans at all (or maybe is trans under some weird circumstances like a transman who's biological sex is female cross dressing as a woman...)
transgender - feeling that you're not the sex you were assigned at birth, and choosing to identify as the sex you actually feel like
transexual - a kind of outdated term that refers to people who actually got a sex change operation
transman - a transgender man who is biologically female
transwoman - a transgender woman is biologically male
transperson - a good neutral term for someone who is transgender |
ArsMoriendi
09.26.16 | @Balls: I know people personally who identify as asexual, so in the terms of human sexuality it just means you're not attracted to people (except in the came of emotional connection like demisexuals) |
Asdfp277

@Storm / Ars the definition of identities can also vary depending on who you ask. With the inclusion of Demi/gray/omni sexual (and everything with a "romantic" root instead of "sexual"). I try not to think about the specifics too much but rather accept and address them in a manner that they're comfortable with. |

09.26.16 | i don't know how to feel about the demi/pan labels, as i feel like sexual orientations ain't meant to be that specific tbh. they're supposed to give you a very general overview, and not dwell on specific circumstances but idk, they can be useful too as long as people use them right, like using pan to specify u don't mind trans people (whereas with bi people "u don't know", even though the label itself doesn't exclude trans people by itself) |
Sevengill
09.26.16 | I've got friends who get so caught up in labels that it's just infuriating. it's like inventing a term for yourself entitles you to thumb your nose at anyone who isn't 100% up to date on the latest trendy identities. |

09.26.16 | @snake
nah not at all. I'm saying that people who affiliate themselves with these movements for insincere reasons (i.e simply to appear open minded, to garner attention or because they're some social pariah who seeks acceptance and belonging with any group) dilute the legitimacy of these groups and sort of facilitate all the cynicism that the general public holds towards them. Kind of a long winded way of putting it but you get the idea. |

MercuryToHell
09.26.16 | When people say there's too many labels, I very much doubt it's to invalidate the experience of those that identify under those specifics.
However, it is nigh-on impossible to keep track of every single one, which is a minefield considering the very strict lists of dos and don'ts that seem to come with each one.
But I really do feel a lot of people in the 'alternative sexuality spectrum' do themselves no favours by demanding respect and recognition for (if you'll forgive my bluntness) something that makes zero difference whatsoever unless we're fucking.
CAN'T WE ALL JUST GET ALONG? |
ArsMoriendi
09.26.16 | @Seven: I mean they could always have updated versions... I guess the problem is that even gays and lesbians haven't been truly accepted until recently (which is debatably based on blood donation laws and non-universal adoption laws)
Speaking of which, you know what I find weird? Both gay and lesbian refer to homosexual, but have different terms that even extend to the community title. I know a lot of people want to change it from the "LGBT Community" to the "Queer Community" so that it's all inclusive in nature without having to add a ton of letters. What do you guys think? |
MercuryToHell
09.26.16 | I was at a NUS LGBT conference around the time the addition of Q was being debated (showing my age a little bit) - and while I acknowledge the need for everyone to feel included, maybe the acronym system doesn't work amazingly well when there's about 5 different valid terms for each letter of the alphabet. |

09.26.16 | "I know a lot of people want to change it from the "LGBT Community" to the "Queer Community" so that it's all inclusive in nature without having to add a ton of letters."
Its a good idea in principle, though where I live the term 'Queer' is still used as a derogatory term, so not sure its appropriate. Alternatively it could be a case of claiming the word as the LGBT-etc. community's own, so could be a good thing |

Asdfp277
09.26.16 | of course, because we haven't decided what should constitute a reason to include someone to the "lgbt community"
i'd say yes sure, why not. they probably encounter some problems due to their condition and/or need to find more people they can share experiences with. now, u gotta realise that the lgbt community is separated by factions too, like, i'm gay so i'm lgbt+ but i'm not part of the lesbian community in particular, y'know? |

09.26.16 | also about the kissing in public thing it's pretty strange because my city is known for it's huge lgbt culture and yet i can instantly remember a case about a year ago where were two lesbian partners just had a quick kiss in a supermarket and then some woman reported them for indecency and they got kicked out the store. Like that's just one instance i can think of there are plenty of incidents like this. |
AmericanFlagAsh
09.26.16 | There are a lot of incidents like that, yeah. It's sad. |
BallsDeep
09.26.16 | yeah fair point asdfp and everyone for that matter, and sinternet its a sad fact that people like that woman exist in this world. I think religion is certainly a culprit here but that's another kettle of fish probably not worth diverging into |
AsleepInTheBack
09.26.16 | yeah that could jeopardise the wonderful civility of thread |
Asdfp277
09.26.16 | society absorbs social norms from popular cultures, then inculcate those rules onto all people, making those rules a separate entity from the culture that originated them. religion had a huge part in inculcating homophobia onto society, but now homophobia is a separate entity, able to persist even within secular groups.
idk where i'm going with that, but yeah religion just happened to be the ones who instigated it, but now it's its own issue tbh |

11.13.18 | I've always felt the vocalist was a hit or miss but yeah, that's one of my favorite they've put out.
@Sowing: Gay is a great track. Never bothered listening to the rest of their debut though. Would you recommend it to someone who's not super into grunge?
@Alamo: I love cupcakke. She's a joy to listen to. |
Sowing
11.13.18 | It's more indie-rock than grunge tbh, so you might enjoy their other songs. Band in general is pretty outspoken in favor of gay rights, so you might find more songs with the kind of message you're looking for. |

Rolling Girl
11.14.18 | Gotta keep the positivity rolling then. |
Demon of the Fall
11.14.18 | Definitely, I'm just worried someone will come along & ruin all the good work... one thing I noticed is that this part of Storm's comment was never answered, unless I'm being really dense here. I understand all the other terminology, although admittedly this thread helped me brush up a little on a couple of mistakes I was making....
'But what if you're a guy and you're attracted to women and transgender women? Or girl attracted to men and transgender men? What is that called and is there two different names for that?' |
JayEnder
11.14.18 | I’m not on the LGBT spectrum or transgender or whatever, but Life In Drag by The Hotelier is a dope song. Not sure if that counts but yeah it’s good shit. |

Rolling Girl
11.14.18 | On the bright side I haven't seen any major homo/transphobia on this site since that PWR BTTM review got nuked. Not that I've been looking though.
@ Demon: My best answer to that question would be straight. Like a straight man would not be attracted to every woman in existence and vice versa. And a trans woman is still a woman. I've also met some people who identify as heteroflexible, so that could apply as well. The thing with identities is that they are largely up to personal interpretation, so really that would be up to the person in question. Idk if that helps.
@Lucca: as much as I love Halford metal is always something I've been very picky with. Still need to check out Firepower though. |
Demon of the Fall
11.14.18 | @dfevil:
Wouldn't it be different dependant on the sexual organs of said trans person whether that made someone attracted to them 'straight' or not? Like, if a transgender person went through the 'full transition' or not? That's probably the wrong terminology, but of course you do have people who don't identify as either male or female & also people that transitioned between the two 'born' genders. I'm struggling to find the right descriptors here if that wasn't already obvious, haha.
I don't necessarily agree with labelling people as having a rigid sexuality anyway, just a thought. |
Rolling Girl
11.14.18 | @ Demon
Nah, you're actually doing fine. But not necessarily: Hypothetically if you pass by a pretty girl on the street, do you find her pretty because you're thinking of her genitals or her general appearance? And in some cultures sexuality is more centered around "who fucks" vs "who is fucked" rather than attraction. Like if two men sex, the man who is fucked is considered gay, but not the one who did the fucking. If that makes sense. |
Demon of the Fall
11.14.18 | Oh I get that first part totally, of course you wouldn't know, but what if you did? I'm presuming this is known, otherwise the 'initial attraction is straight' & then presumably a straight person wouldn't actually want to get romantically involved with that person if they knew... if that makes sense.
Yes I've heard that last bit before which strikes me as a slightly odd way of interpreting sexuality because the 'fucker' is still having sex with a man, so what gives? Sounds gay to me, haha. Odd. |
Rolling Girl
11.14.18 | Really this is where it all gets into semantics again. If a straight man is attracted to a woman (Cis or trans), that woman is still a woman. Not being attracted to this woman would not make the man not straight. But really a man can be attracted to a pre-operation trans woman and still be considered straight. At least that's how I see it.
I know that was how it was perceived in ancient Greece and Rome. They weren't concerned with attraction as much as power dynamics. Whoever was top was considered superior. |
Demon of the Fall
11.14.18 | Fair enough, it’s simple for me at least, if I have that initial attraction to this hypothetical woman in the street there would be no grey area, in fact it might be a nice surprise. Yes if I wasn’t already obvious enough my initial enquires were of a somewhat personal nature. |
StrikeOfTheBeast
11.14.18 | Anything Judas Priest related technically belongs here too, not in a bad way of course. |
Rolling Girl
11.14.18 | No judgement here Demon. I hope this was at least somewhat helpful. |

05.27.19 | "I don't understand why so much queer media is pushing so much Troye Sivan but not Perfume Genius."
"No offense to Sivan but PG offers such a more unique and dynamic sound in modern pop music and they deserve so much more attention."
The 2nd half answers the first half. PG isn't pushed as much because he's a unique and dynamic artist, so he has integrity and can't be as easily bought. |
