There wasn't anything on deviantART that you could use to state your sexual orientation/romantic orientation/gender identity that was straight-forward so I decided to create my own!Sexuality Flags:
Romantic Orientation Symbols:
Gender/Sex Symbols:
Gender Flags:
You have my permission to use this on and off deviantART, no need to ask! Credit isn't needed but highly appreciated!

Would maybe adding "Omnisexual" be an issue? ;u; It's sad I don't really see it anywhere ever.
I ask because I really love these and want to use them.

No problem! uwu
"Considered to go hand-in-hand with beingΒ pansexual , being omnisexual is a bit different. Pansexuals don't tend to view gender in the same ways that we do, whereas omnisexuals view gender normally, they just don't care.
Omnisexuals are attracted equally to all human beings (men, women, transexuals, etc.) They tend to go through phases of gender attraction that switch frequently and will eventually settle down with whoever wins their heart, regardless of said person's gender."

Another thing Omnisexual is the same thing as Pansexual therefore they have the same symbols, please correct me if I am wrong.

Omnisexuality and Pansexuality are one in the same.
Omnisexual is referred to a person who can see attraction to all sexual orientations/genders.
Pansexual seeing no gender at all.
I tried looking up a flag for omnisexuality and only got the flag for pansexuality so, I don't know how the person could make one for basically the same thing. xD;

Not to start a flame war but, demi/grey____ is kinda bullshit.
As the only animals on earth with as much intellegence as we have, we of course only feel a sexual (though not all relationships are sexual obviously) connection after a strong bond.
Demi/Grey___ can't exist because it implies that humans are like other animals in that we mate because we can.

ClT-Courtney In reply to SterileRitalin [2015-10-25 01:50:09 +0000 UTC]
How is it bullshit?
Gray-asexual/romantic is just implying that you rarely ever feel sexual(or romantic) attraction.
Demisexual/romantic is that you only ever feel sexual(or romantic) attraction unless you form a strong bond with someone.
It is in no way implying that humans mate just because they can. People who are homosexual/heterosexual/romantic regularly feel sexual attraction to whatever gender they prefer. Though, that doesn't mean they have sex all the time to the gender that they prefer.Β
Demi and gray people are on the asexual spectrum, so they're very similar to asexuals. So if you say that demi/gray doesn't exist, it's basically saying that asexuals don't exist, but they do.Β
Plus, they're just orientations, they're not supposed to exist. Orientations are just something you identify with.

There is no ace spectrum
Asexual: A lack of sexual attraction.
How can there be a spectrum on something that is set in stone as no attraction.

That's pretty funny, the definition you put says, "a lack of sexual attraction."
I don't think lacking something is the same as not having it.
You also pretty much ignored everything else I said. Gold star for you.

SterileRitalin In reply to ClT-Courtney [2015-10-25 03:20:51 +0000 UTC]
A lack of and not having it are the same thing
Like how saying 'I lack a computor' is the same as "I do not have a computor"
I ignored it because it was just "But its real because [contradictory or flimsy reason here]" and i'd hate to be redundant.

ClT-Courtney In reply to SterileRitalin [2015-10-25 03:27:02 +0000 UTC]
lack: noun- "the state of being without or not having enough of something."
verb- "be without or deficient in."
It can be not having something, but it can also be a scarcity of something. So no, it's not always the same thing.
I thought your reasoning was pretty flimsy, and I still replied to it.Β

If I was ace (i'm the exact opposite by being pan) I would be very insulted that a bunch of special snowflakes were using my sexuality, perverting it, and then have the balls to say that theres this magical 'ace spectrum'.
Probably because both demi/grey sexuality and the ace spectrum don't exist, infact i'd go so far and say its something Tumblr made up because Tumblr loves to be super fucking special all the goddamn time, and what better than saying you're demi-sexual.
Its both 'special snowflake' and 'ignorance of reality'

Because any sexuality can feel a lack of sexual emotions, its called being human.
Good thing I don't care, also autism and being retarded are two different things, also the word retarded is not just for describing people such as the term 'flame retardant'

I guess you're kinda wrong. Because hetero/homo/bi/pan/omni/poly people feel sexual attraction often without knowing the person they're attracted to. Demisexuals are asexual until they make an emotional bond with someone. Then they can start to feel the sexual attraction.Β

Why would you be sorry? Because of me using all the terminology so I wouldn't miss anyone? Polysexual is just anyone who is attracted to more than one gender. Omnisexual is almost same as pansexual. The only difference is that pansexuals in theory can have gender/sex preferences while omni have none.Β
And I guess if it's a reply to you, they won't see it in their feedback in anyway

"Polysexual is just anyone who is attracted to more than one gender"
Just because Gender Fluid and Bigender exist doesn't warrant a whole new sexuality
"Β Omnisexual is almost same as pansexual. The only difference is that pansexuals in theory can have gender/sex preferences while omni have none."
Just read my first comment and replace "Gender Fluid" and "Bigender" with whatever the fuck you want
As somebody who is Pansexual, I kinda feel insulted that people are editing a sexuality that I have just to be a special snowflake
The same goes for Asexual people and Demi/Grey sexuality bullshit, there are thousands of people on Tumblr who will debunk Demi/Grey/Poly/Omni till the fucking cows come home.

Szczurzyslawa In reply to SterileRitalin [2015-03-06 22:18:37 +0000 UTC]
I have to agree with you that there are created more and more names and labels, often annoying and also misleading, making people more and more confused instead of just letting them being freely who they are, make them love who they love and feel sexual attraction to whoever they want. But if we try to get rid of our anger, and try to embrace what all those people created... because it is created to better describe their mindsets and what they feel about themselves. Many people want or need for their dang comfort to have more defined labels. If they make or doesn't make sense to me, it's my own problem/ opinion/ whatever, but I tried to at least learn what it all mean and try to explain it when others don't know or have some wrong information or misconceptions (happens a lot while talking about asexuals).
I personally don't fully get the idea of grays, especially when it comes to grey-romantic people... it seems to be same as aromantics. But I totally agree on demisexuality, that it is a real thing. While girls around me ramble about hot boys/men/characters from games/ books Β (witcher) I just see that they're sexually attracted to those, not knowing them, just the fuckable body. It doesn't mean they would like to be in relationship with them. I have a friend who wants to fuck one boy so hard, even if he isn't that attractive, but wouldn't ever like to be in relationship with him. That's what being straight means. Kinda... Demisexuals are asexual until they know the person. Personally I'm asexual but I found out that I can't even tell if a person is pretty until I know them. And it's only aesthetic side to this, so when it comes to sexual attraction it also can happen, and it does! I didn't know that demi thing can make anyone angry oh, I mean, it shouldn't...? It just describes that a person is unable to be sexually attracted to anybody until they bond with them TvT if is it sexuality or not, it is a thing that happens and is real and they described it as demisexuality. What's wrong with that?
And yeah, omni is... unnecessary if you ask me, but poly means just "many/multiple" so I guess it's just a term like genderqueer. Everybody who are not cis fall there.Β

Well, good friend of mine who's 19 identifies demi all the way. Another friend of the same age doesn't know her sexuality yet, trying to figure out between being asexual or demisexual. I think that she's just asexual, but the first friend who I said is demi, absolutely is one. Plus maybe she's still teenager, but I can assure you, she's more mature than most "adults" that I know. I even call her mom. And she's happy in actually long lasting relationship yup.Β

And while your friend may be demi now, I bet by the time they're in their late 20s they'll be a sexuality that actually exists.

Szczurzyslawa In reply to SterileRitalin [2015-03-06 22:43:17 +0000 UTC]
I get what you mean and don't worry to seem to be an asshole, actually you're very cultural and educated. Especially in comparison to people who just can't get the idea that asexuals can gain pleasure from sex... because sexuality is about attraction... and so they don't find anyone sexually attractive. But they may have high libido and genitals are really sensitive and stimulation is usually pleasant just like a hug. hugs are pleasant because touch and stuff... And ugh... of course there are many aces who won't ever gain any pleasure from sexual actions, agh... I'm the one who wouldn't ever
I read that sexuality can be fluid during a lifetime, what is bit controversial to me since it is believed/ proved that we are born certain way. Well it can be said that one is born fluid in this matter. But if so, all of mindsets are true. Even if they don't seem to make sense...Β

just your friendly passing person who saw a comment out of the corner of her eye while closing this tab:
as someone dating a pansexual and who knows many more sexual people than nonsexual people, i can fucking confirm that you can god damn feel sexual attraction to fucking strangers you have 0 strong bond with. hell, if tv and book plots are anything to go by, trying to get to know someone you want to fuck is something very common.
so, demi/graysexual isn't bullshit, and you're either an asshole or someone who doesn't know that they're demi/gray. i suggest doing research rather than just having opinions, as the asexual community has pretty much figured out the entire working of sexual orientations since not knowing whether or not you experience sexual attraction is very confusing and leads to a shit-fucking-ton of group introspection. anyway, if you don't want to start flame wars, learn to keep things to yourself or to private conversations instead of public ones for any passing asexual to get very defensive of their community. fuck you and have a nice dayΒ Β

"someone who doesn't know that they're demi/gray."
I'm going to take this is two of each ways
A: You're saying i'm demi/grey which is bullshit because i'm pansexual
or B: You're saying that being demi/grey is this thing that only demi/grey people can feel,which is something i've heard from OTHERKIN
But then again, demi/grey and otherkin are same in that they're both BULLSHIT

I have to agree with you, honestly. I used to identify as grey-ace (it still says it on my profile- I better change that now lmao) but people have come up with so many labels that it made me confused on my sexuality and I no longer put a label on myself, I simply say that I'm panromantic and like people that I just so happen to like.
Grey-asexuality is one thing but demisexuality pisses me off and makes me want to throw my computer across the room honestly. Someone's sexual orientation describes WHO they are attracted to, not HOW.
Regardless of what I think though, I just let people identify as whatever they want. My goal of this submission was to make people happy.
