How desperate are people to assign a label?

I'm not sure if this is about sexuality or mental health.

In mental health professionals and the public would give different
diagnoses. In sexuality I would have the same problem.

If the question if of love then, in the main, I love women. In the not
so main I can love men too. My definition of "love" is complex as complex as anyone's.

Sex? I'm autosexual with 100% heterosexual (biologically) material.

The "(biological)" is about an alternative view of gender, a psychological one.

At some point I may get over my prejudices and kiss or have sex with a guy. At the moment I have enough problems to get over with heterosexual sex.

A lot of people assume I'm gay because of how I am. I'm comfortable around gay men and women. I've got no problem with flirting with members of either sex. I'm not too worried about people thinking I'm a bit girly.

So it's understable why someone might be confused.

There's a concept in medicine called hermenuetics. It's one I'm coming across. It's about how people make a correct diagnosis.

If it's got four legs, hooves and a tail is it a horse? 66% of four legged animals with hooves and tails are horses in my experience.

I am not I because of this force or entity. I am "we"
