    Everybody switched over to Pansexuality when it released in 2010.

    I’ve been working on the open source LGBTQ+ality since they added the + back in 2012 and never looked back. It’s a bit more maintenance, but I’ve always been a so it yourselfer.

    I remember applying for jobs in 2015 that were asking for 5+years experience with LGBTQ+ality for an entry level position! Fucking bonkers.

    I’m learning LGBTQ++, but I might wait for LGBTQ#.

    As long as you've got access to the bootloader you can install whatever sexuality you like. You can even distro hop if you feel like it. Try different ones on for size.

    There's this thing called LGBTR, if you want the speed of LGBTQ++ with the modern features of LGBTQ#. Let's hope its lead developer isn't a dead beat community manager, who will inevitably destroy it through mismanagement and embracing AI after he manages to make some slop images for his presentations.

    Everybody most certainly did not switch over! They hard forked it and sure some people moved to the new fork because they liked the maintainers more and it has the community they vibe with, but a lot of people stayed with the old one and are still using it. The trademark stayed with the original fork, which means the new fork had to develop a new flag which not everyone in the community is stoked about...

    There's a couple side-forks with small communities, like Omni, but most people consider them pretty niche.

    And honestly bisexual is just such a stable fork overall. It functions well with mainstream architectures but also makes a great entry point into sexualities that aren't expressed in binary format. AND if you actually do the work of reading into the docs you find out that it's not even just limited to the traditional two-gender dichotomy. So if you really really need some super specific fork of a fork of a fork for some super specifically narrow use-case that's fine, but honestly in 90% of the cases bisexual actually covers most of the features you need and is widely recognized / compatible with the other stuff you're using with half the effort.

    Edit: just wanna give a shoutout to my hubs. I grew up as a tumblr pan girl and honestly he's super based as a bi dude. First of all it's way harder to be bi as a dude and also he introduced me to the actual bi manifesto and how the bi's have always been super inclusive to begin with by not assuming there are two genders to begin with but also that trans girls & boys are just girls & boys so that aspect doesn't count as an extra gender to be attracted to anyway soooo. Mans has always been super based and I love him a lot.

    Only because terfs stole the bi label, and now not many people use pan either, since terfs claim pansexual means "will fuck children, dogs, and the kitchen sink"

    It's a good thing they included a picture, so you'd know what bisexuals look like.

    This is not enough.

    I need a bisexual identification book, just like those ones for mushrooms.

    Unlike mushrooms though, I won't eat the bisexuals. I promise.

    True, but we weren't allowed to talk about it & didn't have a word for it until 1995.

    I very much remember AC/DC being the term used in personal ads by bi- folk

    A tribute to the Australian rock band, of course.

    Interesting. Please explain how AC/DC can be correlated with bisexuality? I'm trying to picture the physical attributes/mechanics of alternating current & direct current plugs 🤔 Or do you mean the band AC/DC was literally bisexual 🤣

    I think I speak for the heterosexuals and gender binary when i say that the image is the 1995 and Western version of "why are u gae?" moment. It's the heteronormative society not comprehending the world outside of their own view. It's usually one likes either a man or a woman but can't be both. It reminds me of the debate whether or not Alexander the Great is gay. But as someone pointed, why argue if he liked either men or women, but never considered if both? Now i can see why bi-erasure is a thing.

    This was 1995; sexuality was a "new" topic. Identifying as anything other than straight could literally cost you your life. It was 2 years before Ellen would come out publicly on TV because she feared losing her show and 3 years before Matthew Shepard was tortured and dragged to death for being gay.

    A lot of boomers believed and probably still believe that being bisexual was the lazy way of not making a choice. The 90s are pretty romanticized now but it was a scary time for a lot of LGBTIA+ folks.

    At least they made it open source. Someone forked it after the bisexuality devs said they will not include non binary people. Migrating all my sexual fantasies to pansexuality already

    I thought that the T, Q, I and A updates were rolled in over the following years, with later updates all bundled under "+".

    Be interesting to see how many in the article from 1995 are still living that lifestyle today.. Must look like that old lemon party shock pic today.
