I'm omnisexual and I'm really tired of people saying "that doesn't exist or microlables aren't valid". Like buddy it's not hurting anyone and I don't like how they use the straw point argument of "it's biphobic" even though most bisexuals actually don't care or/and do accept it. I'm just really tired of how this is just normalized can we just live our lives without people shouting at us.
First I started off as the straightest woman you have ever seen, then I found out that females were actually allowed to like people other than just males, so I started identifying as bi, then changed to pan, then back to bi again, then I found out about Omni and I'm up at 3am questioning 😭
Hi I just joined and wana ask a question , a friend of mine came out as omnisexual but I didn't realy understand what is so if anyone can explain it in simple term i would appreciate it
I’m Anna I’m female and omnisexual
What does being omnisexual feel like? How did you know you were omni and not bi, pan, or poly? /genq
I think I might be omni... but I'm not 100% sure, so I want to see if my experiences somewhat relate to other omni people's experiences.
I mostly use Reddit to scroll for memes and stuff so don't write posts very often so let me know if I need to tag anything differently, but I've got this on my mind and wouldn't mind some opinions.
(TW for a bit of homophobia)
I'll keep this vague but for most of my life I've grew up in two very opposite households after a divorce, with my dad's side being very religious and homophobic and mom's side being very open and accepting no matter what. In my early years I learned love is love no matter what and had a couple romantic crushes on girl friends. A little later on my dad's teachings got to me and I had some internalized phobia myself. As I grow into an adult I'm growing out of it, but I can't help but have the opinion of "everyone else can be gay and that's fine but it's bad for me to be", which is making finding my own sexuality very difficult.
I've been questioning things for a while, and recently found out my gender is demigirl since I get euphoria from both she and they, as well as feminine and androgynous styles. It goes beyond that but it's not really important here. I also found I'm demiromantic and demisexual, which also makes finding my sexuality very difficult to figure out since I'm an introvert that rarely talks to people but I don't become attracted unless there's an emotional bond. As such I've had very few crushes in my life, so I'm going off what I do have.
Like I said, I've had crushes on girl friends, but I also have a current relationship with a boy as well and I love him very much for who he is. He was questioning his own gender for a bit, which I didn't mind because I love him for him, not his gender, but he's landed on just being a feminine boy. Even if he realizes he's something else down the line I don't mind, since I don't really care for gender.
As for my sexuality, I know I'm multisexual in some way since I've been attracted to both boys and girls in my time, but not sure what label fits best. I've gone down the bi to pan to omni rabbit hole, but even then I'm not quite sure. I've discussed my questioning with my boyfriend and after hearing me out he basically said I'm "personality sexual but dick is a plus" which is true, because sexually I like the idea of dick better, but I'm still capable to be attracted to anyone because for me personality is the one thing that matters to me. I know I can be attracted to any and all genders (cis male/female, trans, enby, agender etc.), so I figure I'm either pan or omni, but not quite sure which. I'm leaning towards omni only for the dick preference, but if that's the only thing then would that make me more panromantic omnisexual? I'm really not quite sure where I fit and I'm still fairly new to how lgbt labels work due to my upbringing so please excuse any misunderstanding on my part, I'd just like to understand myself better and find people I can relate to so I no longer just feel broken.
I don't expect strangers on the internet to be able to label me 100% correctly or anything, just want some outside opinions from people who have gone through the questioning process themselves and know the labels better than I do. I also have a bit of imposter syndrome since no matter what label I go with I feel like I'm too gay for fully straight spaces but being an AFAB demigirl dating a AMAB I'm still very straight passing so feel I'm not gay enough to really call myself part of the lgbt community if that makes sense? Logically I know I am but emotionally feel like because I'm straight passing right now I'm not quite valid enough.
Again, just really looking for any opinions for any of this. I know I likely will get told to go with whatever label I want and feel comfortable with, but I've always been weary with that because I'm autistic and so I take labels at face value a lot of times and don't want to incorrectly label myself in case I offend others.
TLDR; I know I'm under the multisexual label, likely pan or omni, but not quite sure where I fit due to complicated upbringing and feelings
I've been questioning my sexual orientation for quite a bit. I'm a trans man (he/they) but I don't know if I'm bi, omni, or just gay. I've dated girls, I have a crush on a girl, but I also like guys but think I have a preference for men? Can you be omni but also act particularly "gay"? I don't even know ahhh.
Hi, I know this isn't the right sub for this, but I just don't feel as comfortable in any other subs, and I guess some of you have also struggled with Gender stuff, so maybe someone can help me figure this out.
I don't know what my gender is. I mean, I know I'm not a guy, and officially I identify as as cis girl, but I'm just not sure. When I still thought I was straight, and someone described me as straight I always felt kinda offended, and when I realised I wasn't straight I realised why. And I kinda feel the same about my gender? When someone describes me as a girl it's like, well you're not wrong, but also it doesn't feel like you're very right either. I mean, I do feel feminine sometimes, and I know as a girl you do not have to feel feminine always, but it's just like- that's not all, you know? I always loved to break gender rolls and though I know you don't have to be enby to have your hair short and prefer shirt over blouse, or trousers over skirt, if anything at all thinking that would be a requirement to be enby would probably reinforce gender rolls rather than break them, but still I feel like it has something to do with my gender. Fuck it, I don't know. It’s just that, when I think of myself not as she but as they it gives me so much joy and I can't explain why!
The most fucked up part is, even if I say I am enby, and I'm not even sure I am, I guess the pronouns that would feel most like me would be she/they. But my native language isn’t english and we don’t have any gender neutral pronouns apart from it and those neopronouns like Xier, and I don’t really feel comfortable with those. So even if I weren't cis, there is no way I could express that in my native language to my own satisfaction. This whole stuff is so fcking confusing.
Any thoughts?
I consider myself both omni and bi; for me omni feels like a sub-classification of bisexual. But I see some people on here who used to consider themselves bi and now consider themselves omni and not bi, so it made me curious.
Of course there are soooo many additional possible options/combinations; I figured these might be most commonly related but I’d love to hear how people incorporate others (and any others) as well!
Omniaesthetic is a term for people that they gender plays a role in there aesthetic attraction. For some people they have a preference or individuality of beauty. I made this for aroace people or anyone really I hoped I worded this well met me know if you have any questions!?
As an omnisexual I just wanted to announce that I love women, I love thicc women, buff women, skinny women, tight women, loose women, hung women, hairy women, shaved women, dark women, light women, tall women, short women, cute women, fierce women, older women, younger women, pregnant women, intelligent women, ditzy women, angry women, sad women, stoic women, giddy women, feminine men that look like women, women that go boy-mode, women with kids, trans or cis I just love women. Anybody else agree?
I was thinking I was bi or pan or even just a lesbian for a while, but I saw the definition of Omni and I was just like "Oh, that's me!" Reading posts on this subreddit also really helped me understand, so thanks!
I think this is my first time ever being scared like this. I need help or comfort or something. I tried posting this on my TikTok but that just turned into a bunch of Republicans trying to gaslight me. Trump won, and I've been thinking about it constantly and I want to cry in someone's arms but I don't know where to go. I'm in Kansas, the middle of the US and one of the states that voted for him. I'm a closeted Omnisexual in a very Christian family. I don't really know anyone outside of the country or have any way to leave. I also don't want to leave my friends and family behind that will be affected. I just need any amount of comfort. Also I'm not a Republican or Democrat but I did vote for Kamala. And if your gonna try to convince me that Trump is actually good, then fuck off. I'm scared for one of my best friend's who's Lesbian. I'm scared for any and all trans people in this country. I'm Scared for wemon's rights. I scared for immigrants who have a home in the US. I'm scared for Trumps screwed up dictatorship plan. I'm scared for everyone who's gonna be affected by this shit. I don't know who to talk to because I don't know what to do. I wanna let it all out and cry but I can't, and I don't know why. I just can't watch people get hurt once again because of people's fucked up ideals. Please stay safe, everyone. And just be there for people who need it.
I'm sorry I don't have a better formatted list but please reach out for help if you need it. Whatever you're going through.

I thought I was bi for two years but I’m actually omni👋🎉 hope yall welcome me into the wonderful world of being omni (I didn’t even know Omni was a thing before like last month 🥲)
I like to read. Lately I love especially coming of age novels. Some months ago I happened to find "dance on my grave" on the street and was more or less surprised by it's queerness. I'd love to read more queer stories, not just coming of age but anything with a hint of queerness. Something that breaks out of the cisgender, heteronormative average Novel. Don't get me wrong, some of my favourite Novels fall into this category, but I would love to read something I can relate to on this queer kind of level. Also everytime I read novels with a gay romance, it's always about the guys. I'd love to read some wlw sidestory romance. I don’t know, I'm just craving for some thing like this, so if you could help me out I'd be very grateful
So I thought I was bi, but I really don't care if they're male, female, trans, non binary, you get the point. Does this make me Omni? Or something else?
I love people for who they are, regardless of labels and gender.
If I could get some help I'd appreciate it :)
I started crushing on my friend a while ago, but before that I made a joke about making out with girl. He brought something up so I just made that remark, and now he thinks I’m gay. Like gay gay. How am I supposed to bring up in a conversation that I’m actually omni?
Hi, I just reread some of the comments my younger very much confused self made under some Pan and Omni flag Pinterest Posts, and it really gave me a flashback because I don't know but I really get sentimental when I think about the way I had to go until I realised I was Omni.
Soooo, if you're willing to share, where did it all start for you? What way did you have to go? How many other sexualitys did you thought you were, until you found out about Omni? Did you do any "am I pan, bi, or omni?" Quiz? Obviously this entire adventure isn't over yet, but I'd like to know how you are so far.
It's just a random lying awake in bed though, but I'd genuinely like to know
I was just scrolling in Instagram, minding my own business, wasting away my life, as I happen to come upon a video of a very pretty lady wearing a sports bra. The very much not so straight part of my brain is like- instantly stunned. I watch the video once or twice or twenty times until I realise I'm staring and hide in the comment section a bit ashamed. I scroll through some of the rather Queer and flirty comments and realise she reacts quite actively to them. I think- when I comment now- maybe I'll get a reaction from her. So I write, truthfully, "I just lost my train of thought, help". I'm not a native speaker, so my stupid brain start wondering: is "train of thought" something people actually say? I think about it and somehow my brain comes up with that memory from that movie I saw some years ago, that definitely deserves a rewatch. And I think- in the movie Inside Out (the first one), there was a train, transporting thoughts, wasn't there? And I realise- Oh my god- that was supposed to be the train of thought! My one braincell realised that NOW literally years after I first watched the movie. Satisfied in my question and amazed by the movie and how it manages to surprises me still years after, I send the comment, and leave the comment section, immediately greeted by the very pretty lady and her sports bra and AGAIN, it stunnes me so much that my phone slips out of my hand and, since I'm laying in bed and on my back, it lands directly in my face.
So what do I take from this?
I don't know what this post is, but I wanted to share this stupid story so I hope you enjoyed. I'm gonna go te sleep now. Good night!
The title is kinda funny, but it’s an honest question. I mean, yeah, women can look good, but shouldn’t I have had a crush on one, or at least be able to see myself in a relationship with a woman? Is it weird that I can find women in fiction attractive but not really in real life? And why does it feel wrong to think about women in a romantic or sexual way? Help please; I’m 19, and this just turns my stomach every few days.
....what do you masturbate and fantasize about while you're still with your partner?
