    This is true, it sounds like you're putting a lot of pressure on yourself to fit into a specific 'label'. It's okay if you don't fit a specific sexuality! :slight_smile:

    However, "Pansexual with a preference for males" sounds like a perfectly fine description to me.

    We all understand how important labels can be when you do want one, and want to feel like you belong somewhere. But sexuality and labels can change. I would say go with whatever you prefer for now. Almost everyone has some kind of preference, so pansexual with a pref for boys is totally valid. :slight_smile:

    If you are worried that coming out as gay, then finding a girl you like and maybe even date, would have negative consequences (people questioning your "gayness" etc), then you may have to just explain your situation a bit more in depth. Hope that helps.
