[Don Rumata]

I'm starting to think that bi and pan are actually the same thing, and individual people have individual threshold on what they find attractive.
What does "everything in between" even mean, in this context? Between what? So a man finding a tomboy attractive, is not straight? A gay man finding a more effeminate cool young dude attractive, is not gay? Please explain, because that image they posted in the thread only reinforces this idea.

Reminds me of those morons obsessing over videogame genres, when you're at a point that you need so many classifications, that they lost all meaning.
All this talk about gender and sexual fluidity, really goes against having 60 different labels for every little variation.

[Transhuman]

There's a chance I might be non-binary, since no-one has been able to explain to me what that means yet

Agreed. Reminds me of heavy metal subgenres. They only matter to people who are really into heavy metal. Everyone else who hears people discussing the differences between death metal, tech death, slam, nwosdm, melodeath, grind, symphonic, goregrind and other assorted subgenres of death metal thinks you're an idiot because it all sounds the same to them. And in reality, there isn't much difference between any of them, even for the discerning listener.

Yeah that thread highlights what is wrong with era, but the forum is compartmentalized and self aware because bisexuals aren't something to be outrage defended yet. I do think the show gets the definition wrong, but so trivially so who cares. It also is out of context, they're dumb kids that are figuring stuff out. It's like when they quote mr garrison or cartman and get enraged.

"Attracted to multiple genders but not all"

Once you get past male/female/nb though, what gender a person is is entirely individual and self declared. There arent exactly large numbers of people declaring themselves 4th gender. If you aren't attracted to those genders, it just means you aren't attracted to individual people.  I also don't really understand how a 4th gender could even work, as it seems like everything that isn't one of the binary genders is just...nonbinary.

These distinctions seem like they are only useful as food for thought.

The “bladeoftheimmortals” interlude in this thread is HILARIOUS

Dude is like “i designed videogames! I graduated in marketing and managements, i taught in mandatin and i cant get a job!”

Turns out the dude made A Flappy bird clone in unity, graduated 10 years ago in marketing “and only followed a few management classes” and then fucked off to China for to teach english. Now he cant get a marketing job back in the states with his outdated degree with no experience and he’s blaming the world.

Come on, man...

[NekoFever]

Yeah that was the image i was referring to.

What I've taken from that image is that it's basically impossible to define those two sexualities relative to each other without making unfortunate implications about some combination of trans people, non-binary people and/or whichever one of bi or pan you're not talking about at that moment.

[james]

[Tiops]

There's no difference anymore with apparent today's definition. Pan and bi are the same thing if bi is more than two genders. Gender thingies basically erased bisexuals, but that's a terrible thing to say, so they have to come up with those weird explanations.

Especially since a lot of the norms being "challenged", are really just relatively recent cultural norms that keep shifting around.
In the 17 hundreds men wore make up, wigs and walked on heels, but they weren't necessarily "non-binary".

So i don't see why you'd need a specific gender definition, if you like to dress and carry yourself slightly outside of the cultural norm. 
Again, it just seems incredibly pointless labeling taking away individuality from what is supposed to be a celebration of diversity and individuality.
The answer to restricting labels, can't be "more labels".

[Straight Edge]

I love the disclaimer in that chart. “Yeah ‘bi’ means 2 but don’t tell that to bisexuals.”

[james]

If someone has a mullet, does that make them non-binary?

On the plus side, heterosexual now means “attracted to all genders except my own”. I was an ally all along.

Gays are the real bigots now what with only being attracted to one gender, their own.

What if you actually are only attracted to two genders (men and women, as it were), does that make you a problematic bi?

[Coffee Dog]

What if you actually are only attracted to two genders (men and women, as it were), does that make you a problematic bi?

Basically yeah. It makes you a transphobic or nonbinaryphobic bisexual.

Not treating everyone equally as potential sexual partners is problematic. Remember that when you bump into a cute distant cousin this thanksgiving.

[marrec]

What if you actually are only attracted to two genders (men and women, as it were), does that make you a problematic bi?

Alright, and I'm asking seriously here so pls be kind:

If a trans person's gender doesn't depend on their biology, why is there a distinction for trans-men and trans-women when it comes to attraction? If a bi dude likes men and women doesn't that necessarily include trans-men and trans-women? Like, if you don't like a trans-woman because she looks a bit manish isn't that just normal beauty preferences rather than being transphobic?

[marrec]

Oh right, attraction preference is problematic because it's based on outdated societal beauty standards so we as a society have to work really hard to make sure we want to fuck ugly people of any gender.

I understand that it can be hard for a trans-woman without passing privileges to find a partner, but... like... this isn't the fault of your potential partners.

[Straight Edge]

Basically if you are shown a group photo of past and present Resetera moderators and you would decline sex with any of them you are phobic as hell.

[marrec]

Also, who makes the rules? Up there is says "It is possibly they recognize nonbinary people and just aren't attracted to them, but that usually isn't the case", isn't that a form of erasure? Did they do a statistical, blinded survey of 5000 bi people and this was the result? Or was this put together by a small group of bi/pan people who let their insular views affect this seemingly codified definition?

If I were a bi dude I'd be afraid to correct them because they'd label me problematic lol

If they're trying to codify all this as an effort to show this isn't some passing fad they are really fucking up because the more archaic rules and definitions are presented to more it seems like a bloated revision of D&D.

This is the post that prevents me from holding office huh?

[Cauliflower Of Love]

No, I think your racists posts do that.

[marrec]

What racist posts?

EDIT: THATS WHAT I THOUGHT BIATCH

[tiesto]

What's an alt-right movie, Zero Dark Thirty?

Anything by Dinesh D'Souza

[Straight Edge]

I thought alt-right initially meant young conservatives who didn’t espouse the evangelical fundamentalism associated with Republicans. Every definition I see now refers to white nationalism exclusively.

can anyone really describe themselves as being attracted to gender

people are visually attracted to sexual features, and as era will tell you repeatedly sexuality is different from gender

if you buy into their crisis on infinite genders theory then being attracted to "genders" would result in scintillating conversations like

"lately I've been really attracted to magigenders, I don't know what it is about them, their smile...I'm also on pretty good terms with horogender.  Recently got out of a bad relationship with an egogender and I don't know if I can look at them the same way anymore, so I don't know that I can identify as pan anymore.  I mean as if writing off condigenders wasn't enough already, but there aren't that many of them living in this city so it was easy to ignore them."

[Straight Edge]

If you’re a guy attracted to a hot biologically sexed female who feels like a man inside would that make you gay?

[thetylerrob]

Maybe we should be basing our sexuality on sex and not gender?

Like, if you don't like a trans-woman because she looks a bit manish isn't that just normal beauty preferences rather than being transphobic?

the serious answer to this is that trans people who think concretely I Am A Man Transitioning Into A Woman, with the hard M and the hard W, are considered truscum

the ones with actual diagnosed dysphoria who feel strongly they are the opposite of two genders are essentially marginalized and handwaved, trans women are women, they're just reinforcing the binary, instead we should focus our support on those who transition into non-binary alternatives

they're the ones who are REALLY struggling with the way society isn't ready for them and those are the ones the distinction supposedly would apply to

[marrec]

It would be very hard to transition into nb

But for real though... the more convoluted these internal rules become the harder and harder it becomes to self-identify as anything concrete and instead you just end up feeling rather non-specific, hence the rise in public nb and pansexuality I guess?

It's hard for me to understand since I have pretty concrete feelings about sexual attraction and I really am trying to understand but threads like this (the Big Mouth problematic tweet thread) make it clear that it's easier to just not engage.
