Rigid definitions don't really fully work for non rigid concepts. Sexual attraction, gender, expression and identity all work differently based on the individual. I know definitions are helpful and help us categorize and understand things as humans but human sexuality and gender might be the most complex social behaviours in the entire animal kingdom.
I for instance identify as bisexual even though I am a trans woman who almost exclusively dates other trans women. I just kinda find some guys cute enough but I very rarely act on it.
I could be described as a lesbian a bisexual a pansexual or even just gay.
I also choose to identify as a bisexual because I don't really see the point of separating trans people in a separate category aside from that. It almost feels like the term "pansexual" was made for some people to say "I like girls and boys but not those ones id like to other specifically for some reason" (also mini rant there's no word for specific trans attraction but there is one to umbrella them in with everyone and god damn is it fucking annoying the closest thing we have is "trans attracted or T4T" and nobody really knows this shit outside the trans community)
But another trans girl who exclusively dates trans girls might heavily identify as a pansexual lesbian because it just speaks to her more and she doesn't share the same views on it as I do.
You know I actually turned the notifications off on that app and I regularly keep my phone on silent... So even though I have used the app I don't actually know what noise it makes.
It's actually a little sadder than that. Most flying insects sense the light above them as the sun (or moon) and orient themselves based on the suns position. Our artificial light tricks them into thinking that the sun is out and they end up orbiting the lights helplessly as their internal gyroscopes are constantly confusing them.
Doesn't get headlines or move momentum forward though. The fire is more visceral. Who cares about money right now. The world is burning might as well burn theirs.
I've been transitioning for 10 years and these thoughts still haunt me sometimes 🙃
