the oop’s comments on ‘wanting the presentation to match the genitals’ is weird enough bc ur bi and ur attracted to both? who tf gaf. but even so, there are plenty of trans ppl who have had bottom surgery. like they just need to accept they’re transphobic and move on. nobody is a bigot for not accepting ur transphobia 😭😭

please read the excerpt from the bi manifesto, which was published in the 90s, that was posted today.

If you just don't want to do one thing because of your boundaries, it’s different if you didn't want to be with or do anything with a trans person at all

Cis is Latin for “on this side of” and trans is “across from.” Cis and trans are adjectives to describe the gender the person identifies as…

the difference between bi and pan is individual personal preference.

what you’re suggesting is a distinction between the two that doesn’t exist.

11

and shouldn’t exist. your suggestion erases the historical inclusivity of bisexuality.

12

Pan don’t have preferences and don’t see gender binary as a problem. Bi MIGHT have preferences and can prefer certain gender binaries over another.

can i ask something? are you bi, pan, nonbinary, or trans? or is this all theoretical for you?

11

the manifesto explicitly does *not* create a definition. anyway, it’s not my reference for the historical inclusivity of bisexuality—this is extremely and repeatedly well documented. it’s just the easiest one to cite for people who are completely unfamiliar with queer history.

Okay? That does not mean cis and trans are genders (Which they are not). Cis and trans are descriptors used to describe your gender. They themselves are not genders. A gender is man, woman, nonbinary, genderfluid, etc. As a trans man, my gender would be man, and “trans” is the descriptor of the type of man I am

40

Ok so how I describe bi vs pan to my mom vs people questioning the difference is this: imagine you’re at a vending machine. Straight people buy a Pepsi. Gay people buy a coke. Bi people might buy a Pepsi, or a coke; depends on the mood. Pan people just put money in and press a button with their eyes closed.

Transgender is the label for somebody who does not identify with their assigned gender at birth. It cannot, by definition, be a gender itself

27

i’m explicitly not defining your sexuality, your label is up to you. the distinction/choice between bi and pan is up to personal preference, like i said. what you’re doing as a non-bisexual is trying to define bisexuality in an exclusive way. which is what the manifesto directs non-bisexuals to do, and is clearly hypocritical in your part as you object to me defining your sexuality (something i am not doing), but clearly feel comfortable doing for others.

just like others don’t get to define pansexuality for you, you don’t get to define bisexuality for others.

So you’re saying that intersex is a third gender?

-10

you completely misunderstand the fundamentals of what it means to be bisexual or pansexual. the ‘bi’ and ‘pan’ prefixes are misleading and often what ppl (such as urself) get hung up on. bisexuality has always included nonbinary people. their inclusion has never dictated a person being bi or pan. #1’s vending machine analogy is actually really clever. bisexuality means u have a gender preference (ex. i am bi but prefer men usually, tho sometimes its changes for me). pansexuality means u—

2

—experience no gender preference. aka gender plays NO sort of role in attraction. if this changes your sexuality in that u find u have a gender preference, congrats, welcome to bisexuality!! but also it’s not that deep. if you are just uncomfortable labeling yourself as bi bc you’ve used the pan label for so long, then be pan!! no one is gonna force u to call urself anything. all these labels are social constructs meant to give people peace/comfort anyways. embrace the beauty of queerness!!

Bi means two OR more genders (the “or” specifies the preferences) while pan means two AND more genders (the “and” means no preferences).

Preference is not a *universally agreed upon* distinction. I know many “genderblind” bisexuals and a few pansexuals with preferences. If that distinction is important to you that’s cool, but like #4 said, it’s personal preference. I’m honestly not sure when the language of “preference” entered the popular definitions, probably about the time we (as a community) finally started to get people to move away from the old (and wrong) “bi means two, pan means all” schtick.

So if someone is gay and they prefer to only have sex with cisgender men, are they transphobic?

And no it’s not that it’s uncomfortable or gross, it’s because I like cum and that pussies get naturally wet, and after bottom surgery it’s not the same as a cis gender persons. Your dick after ftm bottom surgery doesn’t have the same sexual appeal to me due to not having semen compared to my boyfriends because his does.

yeah fair enough, honestly it’s the only clear distinction i can make between the two that’s not rooted in transphobia in some way. tbh in my opinion the two are more synonymous then they are separate and the label ppl choose is mostly based on comfort/preference. semantical arguments are so stupid

It’s purely just a “if I’m going down on/getting penetrated by someone, I just have the cisgender preference.” But idc who goes down on me. And I’ll use a dildo on someone, I just don’t want one to be used on ME since I like the feeling of how cum feels and the pulsing and stuff.

this post is not about the semantics on bisexuality vs pansexuality. it is addressing the transphobia of the quoted post/comments by that oop. this debate is a dead horse bc it has been beat to death already. trans people are not their own gender, there’s no redefining of bisexuality happening because being trans has never factored into that. u are comfortable with the pan label, congrats. people are TIRED of having this semantics conversation tho. make ur own post about that if u care so bad—

Yes, you've said you don't like when someone has anatomy that does not match their gender. That is a preference you have, and it's still a preference that's rooted in transphobia. If you are attracted to the parts, but not who their attached to because of their transness, that is a preference rooted in transphobia

Because with how my mind works, if I’m going down on someone with a female figure, I’m gonna be expecting female genitalia. If I’m going down on someone with a male figure, I’m gonna expect male genitalia. Going down on someone who is masc looking but then seeing a pussy, which is typically on women, would just throw me off. Same as going down on someone who is feminine looking and seeing a dick.

you are not some victim here. you posted something, people informed u of ur unconscious transphobia. it’s not a crime to have, we all have some deep rooted biases in us. what matters is how we react to them. to acknowledge it is the first step, and it takes time and work to undo them. no one will force u to ever change, but u have to acknowledge it; it’s the bare minimum. if i were u, i’d remove myself from these convos and do some introspection.

So because I prefer to not go down on trans people because I prefer cis gender genitalia, even though they can go down on me and I’ll date them, I’m transphobic? But if a gay or straight person has the same boundary, it’s fine?

this is the last time i will entertain your leap in logic. those who have single attraction sexualities often have a genital preference—ie the one typically associated with the gender they prefer. this is not exclusive to trans ppl, it also applies to cis ppl not in their gender attraction. u do not have a genital preference. u r not attracted to trans genitals bc they are attached to trans ppl. this doesn’t make u blatantly transphobic, just that u have some unconscious transphobic biases

The difference between bisexual and pansexual is technically just bisexual people are attracted to multiple genders. Pansexual people are more-so like, they find everyone pretty, and don’t really use a gendered label to describe why they think that person is pretty, if that makes sense.

It is normalized for people to be in a sub/Dom relationship where one person basically uses the other for their own pleasure.

My bf knows that sucking dick is something I only want to be in the mood for, while pussy is something I’d do 24/7 if I was dating a woman). The thing is, I am sexually aroused by cum/wetness from sexual arousal. MTF bottom surgery does provide wetness, but it’s normally not from arousal. I like knowing that she’s wet because IM making her wet.

I have a few kinks I think but it’s not a lot. But it’s mainly an example because you can’t say it’s offensive for me to say I want to “have them use me” when it’s normalized in many relationships for one partner to be used by the other. I was also in a relationship before where she didn’t like eating pussy and I did, so I was okay letting her use me for her pleasure. If a trans person liked to know they were pleasing me by eating me out, then I’d be down for that. I could be in a lesbian (1)
