      If you ever manage to get one please remember the following:
      - don't wear a binder if its been over 8-12hrs
      - take breaks when wearing a binder
      - never do any physical activity with a binder
      - never sleep in an binder
      - try not to immediately put it on when you get out of a shower, since it'll make it more difficult for you to put it on
      - always measure your chest size, to know which binder is the right one for you. Also try to find one wear they have great reviews and such!
      - never try and get a binder in a smaller size, you could possibly damage your lungs or your breathing in take

      @@raindog3075 You're right, I don't disagree. Binding has its risks if done improperly, gender is a social construct, and misogyny is a real problem, even today.
      However, I find it interesting that you're taking someone choosing to bind, and comparing it to women being shamed for their bodies and being forced to correct them, as you put it.
      Edit: One thing I missed is that while you say they're being forced to choose binding because of misogyny, I don't see any reason to think they're being told to do anything one way or the other, aside from some advice on how to bind safely if they really want to do it.

      Even though so many queerphobic argument do, in fact, center super heavily around the ability to procreate (nevermind how there are plenty cishet people that also invalidates), I agree. I can understand someone using it while venting or potentially to call out someone making those sorts of arguments, but I don't like it.

    One thing I wanna bring up is the hate specifically to demiromantic and demisexual people saying they aren't valid, that they're just the norm and that they never needed to be given a special title since they aren't a minority. I've seen a lot of this in videos mentioning the identity and not many fight against it due to it being less common to see spread around but rather lots of it in small places. As someone who supports this identity and identifies as demiromantic it's pretty sad to see.

    • @SomeOnlinePerson
      @SomeOnlinePerson 2 роки тому +5

      I've somehow managed to avoid seeing anyone actually seriously make that claim about demi orientations just being "the norm" or anything, but I've definitely heard about plenty instances secondhand. I admit that I'd actually be surprised if there weren't any people IDing as demi who actually did fall within some sort of undefined "standard" range, but those individuals will be the only ones who can actually determine that and the only ones the slightest bit affected by it, and there definitely IS something there.
      One of the callouts/counters I've seen puts demi side-by-side with fray; functionally opposite ways of experiencing attraction. Both get accused of being "just the norm," but that is logically inconsistent. If you're not familiar with those already, should be able to look up some relevant memes easy enough to throw out when you see people making those kinds of bs arguments.

    I don't know how widely used it is (I could have made it myself for all I know) but I have an alternative to 'partner' and that is 'snugglefriend', basically a snugglefriend is someone with a close and intimate relationship with someone else but without the societal image of a boyfriend/girlfriend or to a less extent partner (an image which often has a sexual dimension).
    It's a bit different for me as my natural answer to the question 'do you have a partner?' is 'no, I'm self-employed', which might go into explaining how I find partner to be a more business like term which feels out of place in a relationship setting, since while going into business to make a profit is fine having a relationship on that basis feels wrong, like the relationship is more akin to a stock option, something to be jettisoned when its no longer profitable.

Come to think of it I remember reading about the term Joyfriend as a common term for the closest companion back in the medieval era (boy and girl meant different things in the middle ages and were not firmly affixed to biological sex until around 1600, they were more used to describe temperaments in the middle ages, a boy would describe someone who was loud and outgoing and rambunctious (there's even a remnants of this in the root of the word boisterous) and girl was more for a calm, meek and emotional temperament with children being gendered much later than we do today (although given that might be at birth or in the womb its not much of a contest) and while biological sex would be noted it was normally not til puberty that a medieval person would receive their gender role (although there was some degree of flexibility (as there was still the medieval world of 'Those who work', 'Those who fight' and 'Those who Pray') and peasants would farm the land no matter what)). Sorry for the ramble, but still nice that Joyfriend is making a comeback.

      have a friend or family member you can stay with be with you so things won't go ugly when you tell them.
      have a bag packed of clothes and stuff you might need in case you need to flee a hostile environment.
      sit down with your parents and tell them you're pansexual.
      explain your sexuality like you would to an 8th grade health class.
      use terms they are familiar with while teaching them new terms.
      give them an choice love you for who you are or you walk out that day with that family member/friend and only contact you when they're ready to accept you.
      now i should admit that this advice was given to someone in their early 20's who had a gay uncle they could crash with but...
      my advice did help.
      she went to go stay with her uncle for a few weeks and she got a phone call telling to come home she did and her mom embraced telling her she loved her for who she was.

    Is it possible to be a panromantic demisexual lesbian? I feel like that’s such a long label. But it fits best with what I feel. And using just lesbian doesn’t really fit since I can and have had romantic relationships with guys but I’ve never wanted to sleep with them. Then girls I can become sexually attracted to if I form a close relationship with them.

    ok so idk if u already talked about this at one point but here
    Neptunic or Nomascsexual is the attraction to women, feminine non-binary people, and neutral non-binary people. It can also be described as attraction to all people except men and/or man-aligned/masculine-aligned non-binary people. This orientation is mostly used by non-binary people to describe their attraction without relying on the gender binary but can be used by anyone. The term can be used as an identity on its own or combined with other orientations.

    "Femininity" is a hard word to say. XD And I greatly appreciate your consistent effort to recognize asexual folks, agender folks, and even aromatic folks.
    The rest I typed while viewing, so it might be a bit messy.
    "Enby" might be good to move to the "contextual" list. While most are fine with or even appreciate it, there are also many nonbinary folks who feel it sounds too childish and is infantilizing (especially since it seems to be common for nonbinary folks and transmasc folks to be treated kinda as children or even a beloved pet by others who usually mean well). It can also be an issue when spoken since it does indeed sound like "NB" which nonbinary communities are trying to move away from out of respect to people of color, who have long been using NB as "non-black" (as in NBPOC, describing any person of color who's not specifically a black person). So far, the best/safest shortening seems to be NBi, just to get that slight distinction in there.
    I haven't seen FAAB or MAAB much; I usually see AFAB and AMAB. I'm also merely aware of CAFAB and CAMAB, the C being for "Coercive," and that those versions are supposed to be reserved for Intersex folks.
    An extension to what you said about Sapphic: it's use usually implies both expressing oneself in feminine-leaning ways and especially attraction to femininity, such as with "Lipstick Lesbians." I've seen some reference to the men & masculine version of this being Achillean (though I can't recall seeing someone actually use that, and I'm not sure if it's supposed to be more "idealized" or more generalized compared to Bears). The nonbinary counterpart of these is supposed to be Diamoric (but things can start getting pretty complex around here). I've also heard the term "Bambi Lesbian" which seems to refer to a woman/femme-aligned person who is either something like "bi-curious" or homoromantic asexual.
    Also kinda relating back to Sapphic, there are the terms Toric and Trixic, which respectively (and non-exclusively) refer to attraction to men/masc-aligned people and women/femme-aligned people. It's mostly associated with the experiences of nonbinary people whose attraction isn't as simple as homo/hetero (for those who aren't bi, pan, aroace, etc), but I have seen arguments that the terms can be used by people of any gender as a way to express their orientation without tying it to their gender. In that, they could *potentially* be less loaded versions of androsexual and gynosexual.
    Skoliosexual should maybe be in your "contexual" list. Some may use it to refer to androgynous attraction or something similar, but many take issue with the idea that there's any defining trait of nonbinary people to specify attraction to, and specifying attraction to trans folks is additionally seen as inherently invalidating toward binary trans folks.
    SAGA - Sexuality And Gender Alliance (some take issue with this one for being universally inclusive, including of cis and hetero folks)
    MOGAI - Marginalized Orientations, Gender Alignments, and Intersex (some take issue with this one for having phrasing that is inherently inclusive of cishet women; there are also intersex folks who dislike being "lumped in" with the queer community, especially since they are often reduced to being an example in arguments against transphobes)
    GSRM - Gender, Sexual, and Romantic Minorities
    Since you mentioned tucking - packing is the opposite, using something to create the appearance of a crotch bulge and/or to be a male-typical phallus prosthesis to help a trans man or transmasc person feel more comfortable with their body, either instead of bottom surgery or until bottom surgery can be gotten. Most packers are solid silicone or a similar material and designed to emulate a flaccid state, but some are designed to have additional functions, most commonly just as an STP (Stand To Pee) device. Common alternative packers include soft cups (like sports cups, but not rigid) and DIY options like socks.
    Some additional "common" neopronouns are xe/xem (and many of the ones starting with z or x get those swapped a lot), per/pers (short for "person"), and thon (a contraction of "that one" and apparently a very old "neopronoun"). I've also seen ey/em, just they/them with the th chopped off.
    It might be worth include "it" in reference to a person in either your "bad" list or "contextual" list. Referring to a trans or nonbinary person as "it" is a common way to both refuse to use someone's correct pronouns and additionally dehumanize them. At the same time, there really *are* some nonbinary folks who favor "it" pronoun over any of the more common alternatives.
    "Queer" should be on the "contextual" list. While its reclamation has been fantastic, it still has contextual origins as a slur and there are still people who are deeply bothered by it.
    I already forgot if you included the word "neopronoun..."
    Microlabel - An extra-specific label usually used in the context of a greater identity label, though sometimes it is used because more general labels simply do not fit right. These labels do not often get used outside of relevant communities. For example, the more recognizable terms I might tell someone regarding my own gender are nonbinary, genderfluid, or genderqueer. If I'm sharing in spaces centered around those identities or in more general queer spaces that are openly inclusive of those identities, or if I'm explaining finer details of things, I may go on to specify that I'm "genderfluidflux" (and usually note disliking the awkwardness of the term), a label that specifies having an experience of gender that changes both in what the gender is (fluid) and in how intensely it's felt (flux), but that I wouldn't expect someone unfamiliar with certain terms and naming conventions to immediately understand. Another microlabel (that's more about "how" instead of "what") applicable to me is "gender hoarder," describing someone who finds *so many* labels to be relatable that it's basically outright a collection. (And yes, my gender experiences can be very strange and confusing and even self-invalidating at times, but I've personally mostly relaxed into generally describing it in ways like "amorphous cloud" or "ambiguous shrug." Or "dammit why can't I just be a shapeshifter?")
    A-spec - Identifying somewhere in the spectrum of asexuality, aromanticism, and/or agender; or a term referring to those identities and their associated labels. It's primarily used to be inclusive of those whose experiences deviate in some way from the primary definition - for example, to include gray-aces, who experience very limited/infrequent or highly contextual sexual attraction, in asexual spaces. It also gives more room to those questioning - like I'm not 100% sure whether I'm ace or grey-ace since I'm still not totally sure what actually is sexual attraction. I personally usually see it in the context of asexuality and aromanticism.

    Androgynous would have been a good one to include, and can be applied to either appearance or behavior. Androgyny is of course the category, but the adjective may be more useful in everyday conversation about a person. (This seems to be out of favor, but I'm not sure why. Maybe because we now have other, and possibly more precise, terminology, or because it was sometimes used derogatively in the past.)

      It can be tricky to differentiate attraction and desire at times - but it's worth looking into "asexual" and "aromantic."
      Myself, I'm not entirely sure if I'm a "standard" ace or some variety of gray-ace, and I'm aroflux (my capacity to experience romantic attraction seems to vary up and down independently of circumstances). I seem to have a romantic preference towards those I perceive as men, though I have more and more reason to doubt that that is an exclusive preference; at the same time, I seem to have a (more clearly non-exclusive) aesthetic preference towards those I perceive to be women and towards androgyny. But sexually? Iunno, it's confusing, like I'm trying to figure out whether or not I'm colorblind to just one specific color.

    This channel has become so different for me after coming out a bisexual male
    Edit:does any other lgbtq+ people feel a weird sense of reward from coming out

      A lot of people have a huge feeling of reward and like a weight has been lifted from them after coming out. If you watch our episode on what to prepare for after coming out, we mention that feeling a lot.

      It’s because there use to be another video but it was confusing so some clips are from the old video
