    So, as a person who is a huge fan of John Green, I watch him and his brother on their collab channel called vlogbrothers. Hank made a video last year about human sexuality that I really think hit the nail on the head. For anyone who hasn't seen it, or wants to see it:

    If I had to put myself into one of the 7 billion little shiny boxes of sexuality, as he puts it, it would probably go like this.

    Biological Sex: Male
    Gender Identity: I would say more strongly male than female, but there are a few feminine traits about me.
    Sexual Orientation: Gay
    Romantic Orientation: Mostly gay, with a few sprinkles of panromanticism
    Sexual Behavior: Gay

    Just thought this video was interesting, hope you all thought so too. :slight_smile:

    Saw this video before too and is pretty good. I watch Hank's SciShow channel. (Also really like his dorkiness, if that's a trait one can be attracted to :icon_redf.)

    This really hit me like a ton of bricks. I guess I never truly realized why I can get so angry and sad with myself...I've always been accepting, but once I was placed in the position I broke down. Well, anyway:

    biological sex: female
    gender identity: tomboy female
    sexual orientation: bisexual/asexual, haven't really figured it out yet.
    romantic orientation: biromantic/homoromantic, also haven't really figured that out yet.
    sexual behavior: lol. Good one.

    Biological Sex: Male
    Gender Identity: Male
    Sexual Orientation: Gay (attracted primarily to men at this time)
    Romantic Orientation: Gay (but unable to follow up on it)
    Sexual Behavior: Heterosexual, due to being married

    This probably seems logically inconsistent, which it is, since I am a gay-oriented man married to a straight woman; welcome to my irrational world; there are a few million of us on my planet, where all the houses have live-in closets.

    That is the single greatest thing I've ever seen posted here on these forums. Anyway:

    Biological Sex: Male
    Gender Identity: Androgyne. It's really scary how much I even relate more to androgynous characters (BMO, Haruhi Fujioka, several other androgynous anime characters)
    Sexual Orientation: Gay is the most accurate term.
    Romantic Orientation: Pan, actually.
    Sexual Behavior: Bi if you count masturbation, otherwise gay.
