This poll is inspired by jessi2's post asking about what you consider yourself. I am equally curious to find out how we all identify from a gender and sexuality standpoint here on this site. I left everything anonymous so that everyone feels comfortable answering but feel free to elaborate below!

Feel free to select more than one answer, the first four options have to do with gender identity, then the rest with sexuality.

Go!

For me, I identify as trans, generally consider myself to be hetero or a little queer but I've really only had female partners.

Bi Female Here! I have had both female and male partners. I have hard more male partners. And I am currently married, but still consider myself Bi. I am allowed to have a girl friend who wants to be shared!

When I have to put a word to myself for gender identity I use trigender, because my identity seems to be on a continuum, and is based on current emotions or interactions with others.

I probably fit pretty well, for the most part, into "pansexual" as an orientation, but when people ask me my orientation, I just tell them that I'm sexual. Sometimes I'm attracted to people for their masculinity or femininity. Sometimes for their gender-queeriness. Sometimes their sex has nothing to do with it. I'm attracted to myself. My sexuality is more of me than what happens in the bedroom.

I voted "other" because I'm still learning myself. I wonder if someone could come over here and discuss with me?

First I want to thank Boink for the discussion and Beck for responding so I saw it on my wall. I've just been tipped over top dead center, self-reflection wise.

Okay, so I came to this site "knowing" I was bisexual. The more I learn, the more I realize I was really only "admitting" I was bisexual, because I am really even more open than that. So, I voted pansexual for the first time and will update my profile accordingly.

I'm still very much monogamous, in a quarter century hetero marriage. In my lifetime I have only had female partners. I have been hit on by men, but the attraction wasn't mutual, or I was already in a monogamous hetero relationship.

Having made the initial "admission" of having attractions to men, I now see no barrier, other than societal "norm", to admitting attractions to any physical orientation.

Hooray for multiple choice options! \o/ Demisex-Lesbian. (-poked the homo/ace options, and then I realized there was a 'something else' option. Oh dear. Oh well! It works out all the same anyshoe.) and I'm very much female.

I identify as a homosexual female, but I am married to a bi man, and we have what could only be called a unique situation. Works for us, though...

I'm pretty much straight.
I sometimes have sexual thoughts about women, but I don't think I'd ever actually want to be with one. So I suppose I'm a little bisexual...

I consider myself a hetero female who sometimes finds some women attractive. But not enough to actually pursue them.

I'm a straight female. But I've thought about girls too. I've just never met a girl that makes me wanna try anything sexual with them.
