Part 1: Sexuality

I thought I should make a list of words tumblrfags/ use. This will by

no means be a complete list, but I' ll try to cover the most common ones.

This first post is sexuality and gender. Enjoy!

Trans*

The for when written with an

asterisk. Without the asterisk (*) the word simply refers

to "classic" transsexuals, Male to Female or opposite.

Cis

Scum of the earth. If you are on Funn/ Junk this is probably

you. A cisgender is a person who is comfortable with the

sex/ gender they were born with. . a man in a mans body.

Other words: Cachet, Cissy.

Sexual/* Romantic

These are wry simple. [Anything] sexual means you are

sexually attracted to someone/ something.

Anything] romantic means you are "romanticly" attracted to

someone/ something, . would want to be together with.

These doesn' t necessarily go together. They often do, but

it' s net a given.

I' ll just use "sexual" for the rest of this, but you can almost

always substitute "romantic" if you want to.

Pansexual

pansexual actually is gaining some mainstream (-

sphere) use, but it' s still mainly used on timblr. A pansexual

is someone who are attracted to "all genders", while a

bisexual is only attracted to males and females.

Asexual

Now, normally, asexual means that a person isn' t sexually

attracted to anyone, and beery low or no interest in sexual

activity. Not on timblr. On timblr an asexual just "doesn' t

experience sexual attraction to anyone", sounds reasonable

enough, until you hear them saying stuff like:

you can have sex and still be asexual, you can be

horny all the time and still be asexual, we can like sex and

still be asexual, as long as we don' t like the person we' re

doing it with sexually. However that would work.

You also have "", which means

almost asexual, but net quite. These people can

get sexually attracted to someone, but it' s rare.

Which of course sounds like:

Demisexual

Now, I said that "" sounds a lot like

demisexual, but that' s a truth with modifications. Because

technically, a demisexual person only gets sexually

attracted to people they have formed a deep bond with.

I don' t like dick, I like guys" is something a demisexual

person could say. Homoromantic of course means that we

only fall in love with people we have formed a deep bond

with, so that would mean "friendship first".

Personal pronouns

Personal pronouns is pronouns for people who are too

special for "he/ she". These are most often used by

under) people. They can be things like

xir/ herself", or anything really, which is supposed to

represent "she/ her/ herself". You can often (but not

always!) use "they,»' them,»' themseleves" if you don' t want

to insult the ()

are simply all people who fall outside the strict

male/ female" spectrum. This is a "catchalls" term, like

trans*". I have listed four of the most common ""

types here.

Agendar

Simply: "Nonbender", A person who identifies

identify with any gender, binary as neither, or both (or

in not. more) genders.

Genderfluid Genderfuck

means "fluctuating This We is Petite

between genders". They don' t unusual, but not

have a single gender. These are extremely GO.

normally the people who change "" is simply

their personal pronouns eatery to deliberately break

other week and gets offended if ""

you don' t keep up. It should go (like Wearing a skirt and

without saying that they can a manly beard).

fluctuate between more than male

and female.

Thumb up if you want to see more

Thumb down if you

Also, if you want to see a specific topic (I was thinking "Mental

illnesses" if this gets well recieved), then say so in the comments,

and I' ll see if I know enough.
