    When talking with people who are less versed in the community: Bisexual.

    When talking with people more versed in the community: polyamorous biromantic demisexual.

    Of course I was identifying as bisexual way before even I was more versed in the specifics of the queer community.

    Hell I knew I was bi before I knew what the words for it were. I grew up in a VERY conservative area with VERY conservative family so learning about queerness was mostly just “it’s bad, and they’ll get [redacted] in time”

    So yeah, kinda shite.
