Sometimes it’s too intense to be me. I’m too much for myself. I’m too much for others. Maybe this is just a phase. Or is this how it's going to be until the end? It feels like the things I like about myself don't appeal to others. On top of that, being a genderqueer demiaroace feels like a curse. It’s hard for others to understand that I need a sense of safety for attraction, not a great appearance.

Hi everyone, how are you today?

I’ve come to a point where I would like to share my story. I’m a late bloomer in my early 40s.

Until this February, I identified as a heterosexual cis woman. Today, I’m a queer, genderqueer, omni, and demi woman.

For me, that means the following: My gender is female, but I experience and express my gender in a queer way. I’m omni and attracted to people of all genders. However, I’m gender-conscious: the kind of attraction often feels different depending on the gender. I’m also demi: I need some kind of an emotional connection to a person before I’m able to feel sexual or romantic attraction.

I went through an extremely traumatic four years before my discovery. Even though it was a tough period, it brought a new perspective on what is important to me in my life. Love and affection are important, not the gender of my loved one. When I realized I’m omni, I began to question my gender identity as well. I wasn’t familiar with different genders before. I studied them, and "genderqueer" felt just right.

I also thought about my dating history. I only dated one man in my youth, and after that, I have been single—for 23 years now. I don’t get crushes often. When I feel attraction, it is only aesthetic at first, before I get to know the person. I kind of think: they have a nice vibe and they are my type. I need a view into the person’s soul before I can fall for them. That’s why I identify as demi.

I just wanted to share my story with you. Take care and be happy. Love you all!

Basically I can't be attracted to men without them having elements associated with femininity/womanhood in some way, shape, or form. Even if it's fluid between one gender expression and the other

Have you ever reached a similar realization of your own? I wanna know of your experiences as well and how they may relate to mine

Does Omnisexual have a personality preference like Pansexual but a gender preference (which Pansexual might slightly have, but not usually)?

So like in Pansexual the gender or sex does not determine attraction, it’s mostly personality. That’s like me except I have a gender preference.

A multi-gender attraction the that sits in the middle of pansexuality and omnisexuality. A pamnisexual person notices and recognises someone's gender when experiencing attraction and holds a slight to almost major gender preference, but gender is never a structural barrier to their capacity of love.

They can also identify as pan and omni if they want to !!

I've identified as bisexual for 7ish years since I came out in my teens. I happened to come across omnisexual and it fits me very strongly since im attracted to all genders with a preference for men. Along with gender playing a factor of how a romantic relationship goes about. Plus I like the flag colors lol

The problem is that I have came out to friends/few loved ones as bisexual but I don't want to have to recome out as omnisexual. It seems a little exhausting. To new ppl i meet unless i get the vibe they are deep in the LGBT/Alt(i find them very versed on LGBT things) community i am not sure if ill tell them im omni but rather just say bi since its simple rather than having to explain all the time. I do the same with being genderfluid. I just say she/her than having to explain sometimes I feel like a woman amd other times i feel nonbinary since most people assume genderfluid means switching between female and male.

Low key more of a diary entry than an actual post lol but I also wanted to come out to someone!

My university is hosting a pride parade soon, and I'm not so open about being omnisexual because... not a lot of people know what it means lol. But I want to start being more open about it, and I think the pride parade is a great way to start and represent myself. The problem is, I searched online, and I genuinely can't find any flags, aside from like a really big one (which I don't want to use because I don't want too much attention). I tried looking for custom flags, but theyre all expensive

Going out tonight with the wife. Heading to a bonfire with some super good friends. Yet, I am still down. Don't know why, it's been creeping in. Just wanted to tell someone besides my therapist. Don't want to worry my wife. I hope everyone has a great weekend. Give a hug to someone that needs it.

Recently a friend of mine came out as omni, and as a nonbinary omni person it's felt a lot less lonely since. I want to discuss things like sexuality with them, but i don't know if we're close enough?... Yeah we've known each other for a couple years and talk a lot about the classes we share but i worry if it might be too intimate or something. I also don't want it to be viewed as me pursuing them romantically, since they already have a boyfriend. Do i just ask them casually? Am i overthinking it??

I have identified as omnisexual since early spring. I was relieved when I found out my true self.

However, I feel this subreddit is one of the few ones where I feel safe. The main reason is the gatekeeping on broader sexuality subreddits. I have ended up deleting several comments on other subreddits because of this. As an omnisexual person, I have had to justify my label choice.

I wish that every single subreddit were safe for anyone, without anyone having to be afraid of judging and gatekeeping.

Thank you for this safe space!

Afternoon everyone and hope your weekend is going well. As we omnisexuals we are attracted to people of all sexes and gender identities with those factoring in to the attraction. Also there may or maynot be a preference. My question is what do you identify yourself as being? I identify myself as a person because I am just who I am and am attracted to the feminine side of things (female, crossdressers and trans women). I know this is something unique to everyone. I also know I am not non binary and have male and female outlooks and feelings.
