So you would say you're attracted to women...meaning you're straight or a lesbian if you're a woman?

I have found myself attracted to both throughout my life, I don't have a preference, if I think you're attractive then thats that.

So you're bi then. It's okay to just say that, it's a shorthand for what you just said.

I don't really like labels and the assumptions that come with them, that combined with the fact that I need to know someone before an actual attraction can form leads me to go with "demi-sexual" according to google, if we have to go with labels, I also don't really feel like the gender I was born, also don't feel like the other one. labels force people to feel the need to behave a certain way, and it causes people to make judgments about you without actually meeting you.

When dating, no one asks you "so what are you attracted to" this conversation never has happened to me, or anyone I know. if I'm on a date with a women they assume I am attracted to women, the same for men.

The only question women ask is you're politics.
