I realized I was gay when I turned twelve when a boy kissed me on the cheek and my heart jumped out of my chest.

    Me personally, when I had a crush on a boy and a girl. THEN.... I started watching MCYT, discovered Antfrost, Eret, Captain Puffy, and all of the other members! I've seen someone on BP say this about MCYT " Why only like one gender when you can like both?! " AND THEY WERE RIGHT!!!!

    I hate being separated because of my gender, so I won't reject someone because of their gender.

    I had a crush on a few people, but I didn’t actually know what gender one of them ever was. I guess I just realised one day ‘Oh, I like people regardless of gender!’ After hours of googling I discovered pansexuality

    When Hela from Thor Ragnorok walked out of the portal and it was a pan up from her hips to her face, and I kept pausing when it got to her hips just to stare.

    For me I always knew I liked girls and guys and theys but I never knew that was different from others. In 4th grade my friend asked me what my sexuality was and I said idk everyone but it depends on how the persons like and she explained what pansexual is. I was like YUP that's me. Recently when I was on discord some ppl kept on calling me they or he and some days I'd like it and some days I hated it. I asked friends and they helped me find out I'm demi-flux

    Mine was when I was playing truth or dare and I was dared to kiss my best friend, she looked really pretty and I got really nervous. So then I realized that while I could crush on anyone I wasn't sexually attracted to them until I got to know about them, a couple google searches and ta-da! Demisexual!

    And then I realized I was a demigirl when I thought to myself "I want to be a girl but sometimes I don't, sometimes I want to be another gender" So I found out I was a demigirl!

    I'm like that with gay movies/shows. I'm waiting for a hero who's a main character who goes home to his boyfriend. Batwoman's a lesbian, so give me a homo.
