How do you describe each of these?

I know what the first three are, but what about the others?

Pansexual-attraction is based on the person, not how they identify

Autosexual- prefers solo sexy time

Asexual- no sexual attraction or need for sex

Queer-blanket term for anyone not hetero or cis

Intersex- biologically have characteristics of both male and female.

@ProdigalSummer best answer. This one accurately identifies all the terms.

@YoungPoet345 Best answer, indeed!

Pansexual - everybody in the photo
Autosexual - I take only selfies
Asexual - landscapes only
I'll leave the last two alone

@Mamapolo2016 That was beautiful.

I'm just garden variety hetero. I have had experience with women but at the end of the day, I just want...
CoffeeFirst · 56-60, F
@CoffeeFirst I didn't even freakin' read the question correctly. I don't know what some of those are. 😊

Pan- all
Auto-self
A -non
Queer -reclaimed slur used by all not heterosexual or cisgender.
Inter - between (to answer your question, it’s not a sexual orientation. It’s a biological gender where someone is born with both male and female genitalia. Some have reconstructive surgery to resemble one gender and often doctors will choose a gender to label the baby, male or female, though in some states babies are labeled simply as intersex)

Either bisexual or homosexual
ChildOfTheWasteland · 31-35, M
@MrBrownstone What are all the other ones?
MrBrownstone · 46-50, M
@ChildOfTheWasteland Bisexual or homosexual

All humans, same blood same same
People!
ChildOfTheWasteland · 31-35, M
@Asianpersuasion Where do you draw the line with labels, if there is one?
Asianpersuasion · 36-40, C
@ChildOfTheWasteland if whatever is you're rightful thing you like, impedes what I do? Locker room fine, reach and grab nooooo

No idea after the first 3, this modern need for a sexual label has just gone barking mad. At the end of the day who cares we are all human so just try and get along adding more label just divides and separates i think.
SAandME · 56-60, M
@ChildOfTheWasteland But then they buy Nike, BMW, Apple etc all the most popular fashionable branded products like the large groups.
ChildOfTheWasteland · 31-35, M
@SAandME I think their brand choices are similar to anyone else's.
SAandME · 56-60, M
@ChildOfTheWasteland But not to everyone, i don't follow brands hence i am closer to being unique without needing a label 🙂
Queer is more a social idea that rejects normal gender roles.
Asexual are people that aren't attracted to people sexually. I don't hear autosexual much but without looking it up I would think it means sexual attraction to yourself.
ChildOfTheWasteland · 31-35, M
@canusernamebemyusername That sounds a lot like narcissism.

😆

Pan is loving everything and everyone from robots to trees, auto is maybe loving cars, asexual is having no to low sex interest, queer, is like being flamboyant, and intersection is where you are technically both genders
ChildOfTheWasteland · 31-35, M
@DiegoWolfe So intersex really has nothing to do with sexual orientation?

@MalteseFalconPunch That was my thought on intersex. That's not an orientation.

Straight, homosexual and bisexual are all pretty self explanatory.
Pansexuals are basically bisexuals, I think.
Asexual is someone not interested in sex.
The others I have no clue.
ChildOfTheWasteland · 31-35, M
@Imsleepy I knew what asexual was. I didn't see it there. Some of them, however, I'm not sure about.
Imsleepy · 31-35
Yeah, I thought queer was a slur. Not a clue what autosexual is and I’m not sure intersex is even an orientation. @ChildOfTheWasteland
ChildOfTheWasteland · 31-35, M
@Imsleepy I never use the word "queer." I, too, thought it was a slur. Even if it's not, I don't feel right using it.
Paliglass · 41-45, F
Pansexual is love of the person whatever they are.

Asexual is loving yourself, you only fuck yourself.

I'd have to Google the others.
I know asexual as well but couldn't explain it, ask google :)
Ooh no I can explain Asexual.

If bisexual is both, asexual is neither. They have no sexual desires towards men or women
The last one is someone that is born having both sets of genitalia.
Nika2002 · 22-25, F
Only intersex confuses me.
Per my understanding (admittedly limited):
Pansexual means can be attracted regardless of gender, based more on personality, etc.
Autosexual, aside from jokes about cars, someone who prefers “self-love” in that regard. Master of his (or her) own domain.
Asexual, not sexually interested at all.
Queer (here’s where I’m unclear) I’ve heard the term used casually by gays and lesbians to self-identify for the last 45 years or so. If someone has since redefined it, I need to catch up.
Intersex...androgynous, I think.
