Reblog if you had a Tumblr for 5+ years
Hi! I would like to ask a question! I am a woman who is attracted to boys, so I'm straight. however, I am attracted to straight, pansexual, bisexual, cisgender, demiboy, agender and non-binary boys. But I have gender preferences, I'm not attracted to ALL of them. and I saw that polyisexuality is like that. soon then, am i poly?
well technically the sexuality of someone youre attracted to doesnt rlly factor into it but as long as your being respectful to the nonbinary boys then sure you can use the ply label if it feels right for you
Hey so this is gonna sound weird but I’m questioning if I am Polysexual or Bisexual! The definition for Bisexual is to be attracted to at least two or more genders but not all genders. And for Polysexual it is to be attracted to more than two genders but not all genders. I’m attracted to more than two genders but not all genders but that still falls under the category of being bisexual. So please help me what am I!? 😭
this blog is a bit dormant but i just wanted to say, dont worry too much about the details and just go with wich one feels better :3
oh also just throwing my hat in the ring for the flag thing i prefer either the origional the way it is or that orchid one that ones really pretty and i like how the meanings are kinda cleaned up a little
hey everyone, im really happy to see alot of polysexual blogs popping up and stuff, sadly this blog is a little dead, i think im the only mod left around here, if yall want me to make this an active blog again tho just like or reblog this, if it gets a solid handfull of reblogs ill do my best :3
Hi! So, I've heard polysexual defined in different ways. The most common definition I've heard is that polysexual people are attracted to multiple genders, but not all of them I've also heard that polysexuals are attracted to more than one person? Like to describe a relationship with three people in it would make them all poly? Am I mixing something up or have I heard the wrong definition? I'm sorry if this comes off as offensive, I'm just curious and want to be able to define it properly
dont worry no offense taken, polysexual is the first part you describe but the ability to date more then one person is poly’amory’ :3 generally if you see something abbreviated as poly its polyamory and if its abreviated as ply (aka without the o) its polysexual

A note on labels
As I am sure any cat owner will be able to tell you, someone else putting you in a box is entirely different from getting into a box yourself.
This is the most brilliant, concise, cute, and disarming response to the “but laaaaaaaabels are baaaaaaad” argument that gets used against people trying to self-identify as something as a way of making sure their boundaries are understood and respected.
