You're bisexual.

You can call yourself a chicken sandwich. But the rest of us will consider you a human being.

    I can't agree with you:

    Saying she's a lesbian because she enjoys sex with a man although not being attracted to the man or men altogether is similar to telling a trans woman she's a man because she has a penis or an X and Y chromosome or whatever.

    I think it's wrong to use your criteria to determine if someone identified themselves "correctly" or not and we should be more supportive to the labels people feel fitting for themselves.

    Your chicken sandwich example obviously is a hyperbole that doesn't help this discussion. Practically nobody would honestly identify as a chicken sandwich but there's a valid point in saying "I feel attracted to women and although I can get off by having sex with a man I identify as lesbian" as well as saying "I am a man feeling attracted to women, identifying as heterosexual and still I think a blowjob by a man would get me off"...

    if you have sex with people of both sexes, you are bisexual.

    it's really that simple. it's not hyperbole, you can call yourself whatever you want. but you real world behavior is what you actually are. you can make up whatever elaborate fictions you want in your own head, and argue with people about them, fine.

    I have met plenty of people who claimed they were x, but they were not x in the real world. their claim was a fiction in their head they convinced themselves of, and they ignored the evidence of their own real world behaviors.

    there are also a million 'sexualities' now that all basically mean the same friggin' thing.

    I could call myself straight, or call myself a allosexual graysexual demisexual allromantic automongamous semifictionsexual cisdemigender individual...

    defined experimented. because it's one thing if it's making out, it's another if it was a prolonged sexual relationship.

    OP is objectively pursuing sex with both men and women. she's bi. claiming she is a lesbian while engaging in sex with men and enjoying it is simply just silly. she is not claiming she was forced to have sex with men.

    rape has nothing to do with any of this.

    If you say you are bi then I would assume you will fall in love and be attracted to men and women not just have mechanical sex with men like it is a flesh dildo. So op would lie if she said she were bi. It would deceive men into thinking they had a chance and that she would be horny for them and fall for them.

    She said she only falls for women, feel sexual attracted to women and if she could she would be with a woman. But she is fine with using her partner who she was forced to marry (sorry for this wording op) as a sex toy.

    So I would call her a closet lesbian that is pragmatic.

    Nonsense, your definitions of these trait label categories is entirely black and white, when in reality close to no one fits 100% into a category completely

    yeah, you're right! I'm secretly gay, even though I have no attraction or sexual desire towards men.

    And also not straight, even though I have only had sex with women and only pursue women sexually.
