POMOSEXUAL
Pomosexual is a portmanteau of the terms pomo - an abbreviation of postmodernism - and sexual; it is a neologism used to describe a person who avoids sexual orientation labels such as heterosexual and homosexual.It is not to be confused with asexuality, which is a sexual orientation used to describe an individual who does not experience sexual attraction.
Pomosexuality refers to a nonorientation in which people disregard sexual labels altogether. In the world of pomosexuality, the superficial orientation identifications (a.k.a. gay, straight, etc.) are insignificant and not what people should accord to. Stems from postmodern sexuality.
“Gay/Straight Alliances were the first step toward unification, but they weren’t enough. What if neither gays nor straights existed, and were all simply called people? With pomosexuality, there is less reason for division in the world.”
this word basically stands for the fact that sexuality is fluid, and everybody has their own- no one word, or dozens of words is enough to classify that. i identify completely with that concept, but i usually cannot be bothered to explain it to people, when the majority of even the queer community is still responding to pansexual as “what, you’d jump anything that moves?” or something along those lines. i do feel however, that tumblr should now, because so many of us around here are struggling with our sexuality and can’t seem to put our finger on it, well tumblr, i think we’re pansexual.
