identity game

[unasombraentrecolores]

El individuo no es más que la suma de las muchas identidades que él arbitra. Esa impresión de unidad que mostramos se la debemos únicamente a nuestras inhibiciones. Lo que los demás llaman nuestro carácter no es más que el escudo que protege lo que somos en realidad: una envoltura social destinada a los intercambios, pero eficaz solo en los tiempos de paz, porque es en caso de agresión y solo en ese caso cuando nos volvemos lo que somos. Cuando estamos en peligro revelamos, en un instante, lo que nos ocupamos tanto en esconder. El "no" miente mucho peor que el "sí"

hi, curious anon here hoping not to come off as rude because i really am trying to learn! If bisexuality is defined as the attraction to two or more genders and not just two, then what is the difference between bisexuality and pansexuality? Thanks for your time

tbh this is more about language than about how the lgbtq community aligns itself. It’s more about connotations given to certain words and how the bi label has been given a derogative connotation in the last decade. Not only that, but each person feels more comfortable with different labels, so even if the difference between bi and pansexuality is strictly in technicalities, it can feel different to a person that is choosing their label because your identity is a very tricky thing.

Remember: pansexuality is also known as attraction regardless of your partner’s gender. Bisexuality is known as attraction to 2 genders or more. Those two sexualities can include your own gender or not! 

To you these definitions might sound like the same thing in different words, but for a confused teen in the search for their identity, a couple of words with certain connotations can be very powerful.

ALSO: Bi can be used as an umbrella term that includes pansexuality. What this means is that some consider pansexuality to be a subcategory in bisexuality, and if that floats your boat, you can identify as both labels! :o)

Sorry for rambling!! But it’s so cool that you’re trying to learn!!! Stay curious and & polite buddy :~)

WHAT'S YOUR IDENTIFIER?

I haven't given my 'identifier' much thought, what am I known as? Isn't it the same as the question, who you want to be? Who you are? Well, I don't think I like the idea of being identified as one thing. Back in college if people were to ask someone about me, to verify that 'I' am the same person they were talking about they'd use identifiers (now I get), The 'Swimmer'? The 'Communications' Minor? But now, that I'm out of college, it came to me that as much as I am uncomfortable of having branded to be something, I have to conform right? The girl in the red dress? The girl with the wing liner? The doctor? The writer? The pouter? Crazy- but yeaaaa. What's your identifier?
