RULES:


I am looking for mods!


1. The "good" part of our community means we are pro-empathy and anti-harassment. However, we don't intend to make this a "safe space" where everyone has to be a saint. Sh*t happens, and life is messy. That's why we get things off our chests.

2. Bigotry is not allowed. That includes racism, sexism, ableism, homophobia, transphobia, xenophobia, and religiophobia. (If you want to vent about religion, that's fine; but religion is not inherently evil.)

3. Frustrated, venting, or angry posts are still welcome.

4. Posts and comments that bait, threaten, or incite harassment are not allowed.

5. If anyone offers mental, medical, or professional advice here, please remember to take it with a grain of salt. Seek out real professionals if needed.

6. Please put NSFW behind NSFW tags.

My family would typically expect me to be into women. Some people, maybe men. But I really feel nothing for any gender at all. I like the idea of being in love and having a love interest, but the closest I could feel is what I thought was “love” due to feeling pressure around me. Or maybe to concepts or non-gendered people/entities, I don’t know how to describe it.

Yep, it's the flag on my profile picture! Demiboy and asexual.

That's unfortunate, profile avatars are not displayed on my app - Voyager for Lemmy.

Aww, I'm sorry. It's half demiboy on the left and half asexual on the right

I'm glad you've found the words to describe how you feel.

What does it mean to be demiboy? That's a new term for me.

It's like when you feel partially like a boy, but not quite. For me, I feel partially like I know I'm a guy, but a part of me feels like it has no gender at all.
