You know what are much more fucking sensible sexual orientations than homosexual & heterosexual? Androsexual and gynosexual. Among others.
@DeerOccultism Oh no. *hiding eyes* The terfs did some goddamn thing with it didn't they.

@chaosprime idk if it was terfs specifically, but yea. That's what I thought you were saying at first. -
@chaosprime I think hetero/homo doesn't req an inherent category of definition bc the subjects attraction is defned by their explicit gender -
@chaosprime not to mention, straight men and gay women are both attracted to women, but their attractions aren't rly that similar ime. -
@chaosprime so a catch all "gynosexuality" would be inaccurate here. -
@DeerOccultism Fair enough, but gay men and lesbians' attractions aren't really any more similar. Barely even in social placement.
-
@chaosprime true but I think that distinction is also why ppl regularly say "gay men and lesbians," opposed to "gay men and women." -
@DeerOccultism Legit. Still, I was struck by how the categories are drawn in a fashion determined by whether society approves or persecutes…
-
@DeerOccultism …your attraction, rather than by what characteristics one is actually attracted to. Oppression defining the whole schema.
