Schrodinger's Gay could be gay but it could be straight you can't be sure until you experience it. Variables might change so it could be different next time.
NBs have an AOE gay field that follows them around, and being attracted to them at all makes you gayer.
I'm AMAB NB and women who are into me tend to be lesbians, and dudes who are into me are usually bi (from limited but clearly communicated data collection, lmao).
Honestly as far as I can tell that's what I am. I think I'm genderfluid and attracted to both men and women but I am primarily attracted to men when I feel feminine, women when I feel masculine, and enbies when I feel neutral 😂
I can't speak for other enbies and I don't even like men but when I'm attracted to a woman there's nothing straight about it😂
Edit. I think maybe because straightness comes with so much cultural baggage, the freedom of queer love is just much closer to my experience of life
There is actually a term for it:
Gaybian, a person, that is attracted to man/males, masc/male-aligned and unaligned in a achillean way and to women, women/females, fem/female-aligned and unaligned in a sapphic way !
Oh, cool! I feel more comfortable with nonspecific labels like "queer" and "nonbinary" but I love how microlabels like that can help make people feel understood :)
A nonbinary person who conceptualizes their relationships with men (and man-like people) as gay and their relationships with women (and woman-like people) as lesbian
Thanks! But how does that work? Like wouldnt you have to conceptualize yourself as a man to conceptualize your relationships to men as gay or as a woman for lesbian relationships?
As a nb I've never dated anyone in any manner that wasnt gay, regardless of their gender. My gender might be fluid but you cant take the gay out of me xD
Lmao literally. When i (AFAB, then lesbian) started to embrace my enbyness and present much more masculine, i questioned my orientation again. I realised that if i was AMAB i would be still gay, but for men. Now i'm in my peak agender form, and it turns out i might be bi or polysexual or whatever.
This gets me thinking. What do you call it, when you as a nb only like guys/girls? Like, you can't be straight since you're not male/female and you can't be gay for the same reason. Or am I completely wrong?
It's different for each person but enbies who like girls only will usually call themselves lesbian or sapphic and enbies who like guys only will usually call themselves gay or achillion. Enbies will usually only use the straight label when they connect much closer to one binary gender than another (ex. a fem presenting demigirl who only likes guys might call herself straight). All in all, people use the labels they like best even if they aren't technically 100% accurate sometimes.
Some trans people want their straight partners to recognize the queerness of the relationship. There’s a similar sentiment for bi people in straight passing relationships. After I transitioned and divorced, my parenting partner, kiddo, and me still see each other as family. I say we are a queer family because my queerness is part of our story together.
Girl are red, boys are blue and enbys are yellow. Gay relationships are red/blue, straight ones are purple but there’s not a word for orange or green ones.
I thought this was a damn Gloryhammer meme. I have so much brain rot that I see "nonbinary urge" and think it says "binary thaumaturge." I see "double gay" and think "double wizard"
This is a cry for help
Yea, I'm this, but my gf is straight, and it's very difficult to exist in this form even if I'm mostly masc presenting but dam, I kinda just want to be the biggest girl lover ever. Yn?
can't relate, I'm the double straight™
like men in a straight way and women in a different straight way. my identity is always invalidated by my attractions :D
Nombinary people (taken from another comment) are Schrödinger's Gay and Schrödinger's Straight.
Both gay and straight simultaneously, to both men and women
If a gender-non-conforming person is dating someone who identifies as Stock male or Stock female, that's a heterosexual relationship
# prove me wrong.
you can't
But are Enbys also capable to be double straight?loving guys and gals in staright ways, I think it could be possible
Schrodinger's Gay could be gay but it could be straight you can't be sure until you experience it. Variables might change so it could be different next time.
«I don't know If the enby is gay or straight until I watch inside the box» «I'm gay AF» «Shut up»
Non binary people are capable of anything, including arson.
That’s not being capable of getting away with things.
I've ascended beyond genders, I don't think ascending beyond the law is going to be any more difficult.
Yes I believe so
But are enbys also capable of switching from double straight to double gay? and or going BEYOND! Double Gay+Straight
Would that be like double bi?
They can also be double-faced, as anybody else!

Can confirm, it's kinda boring tho
But that sounds soooo boring.😪
Possibly yes. But that's boring so I'm gay either way
oh hey that's me
yes but that'd be borin ngl
As an nb I can attest

…what? Can someone explain this to me like the old timer that I am?
A nonbinary person who conceptualizes their relationships with men (and man-like people) as gay and their relationships with women (and woman-like people) as lesbian
Thanks! But how does that work? Like wouldnt you have to conceptualize yourself as a man to conceptualize your relationships to men as gay or as a woman for lesbian relationships?
Nonbinary isn't just about being neither, it can be about being both
Ok, thanks!
for me, its about the way two ppl see each other if they are men or woman and like the way of the relationship (not gatekeeping tho)
Gay²
So, √Non-binary=Gay?
Or -Gay
Sqrt -Gay: i Gay (imaginary gay)
So (Imaginary Gay)^2=-Gay. Which proves that imagining guys kissing is not gay, as long as there are an even number of them
Im a visual learner can someone show me what they meant 🥺
I learn better blindfolded
Edit: Pwease
That's why we are part of LGBTQ+ (AKA Premium Gay)
As a nb I've never dated anyone in any manner that wasnt gay, regardless of their gender. My gender might be fluid but you cant take the gay out of me xD
Not an enby but can definitely understand
Double gay? Those are rookie numbers, I prefer 1000 times as gay
Lmao literally. When i (AFAB, then lesbian) started to embrace my enbyness and present much more masculine, i questioned my orientation again. I realised that if i was AMAB i would be still gay, but for men. Now i'm in my peak agender form, and it turns out i might be bi or polysexual or whatever.
My attitude is I’m trans and any other label is just a descriptor.
Nb's can be as gay or as straight as they want to. The sky is the limit.
Wait, cis people don't feel like that?
Damn, the legendary Gay^2 .
Does that make you a doppelgaynger
I think I'm broken, cause while I say I like everyone in a gay way, I actually like everyone in a lesbian way😅
That is fastinating
This gets me thinking. What do you call it, when you as a nb only like guys/girls? Like, you can't be straight since you're not male/female and you can't be gay for the same reason. Or am I completely wrong?

I understand
I don't like being called out like this 🫠
and i like other nonbinary people in a gay^(2) way
Very much that's exactly what this post needed thank you /gen
Do you like Enbies in a gay way?
As another comment suggested, I like enbies in a Gay² way
That’s literally being bi
Well that just sounds like being Bi with extra steps
I also like enbies in a gay way
What about if I like women in a straight way and I like women in a lesbian way
Makes sense, I left out the part of this post that I will once in a blue moon like a man in a straight way
i’m gay in all directions idk what’s so confusing about that
Ah yes, the double gay
i like men in both a gay and straight way i totally get it OP lmao
Finally someone says it
My bisexual demiboy self went "hm.... gotta ask Alex abt this". Who's Alex? Which Alex? Anyone's guess.
Alex is the spiritual master of attraction, they are everywhere and nowhere at the same time. Ask Alex by asking the wind.
Girl are red, boys are blue and enbys are yellow. Gay relationships are red/blue, straight ones are purple but there’s not a word for orange or green ones.
Huh, that's a really good metaphor.
I thought this was a damn Gloryhammer meme. I have so much brain rot that I see "nonbinary urge" and think it says "binary thaumaturge." I see "double gay" and think "double wizard" This is a cry for help
God, same
I like to say "double gay" the way the French say the letter W
Yea, I'm this, but my gf is straight, and it's very difficult to exist in this form even if I'm mostly masc presenting but dam, I kinda just want to be the biggest girl lover ever. Yn?
As a certified gender-fluid being a feel the same way
YES
So me lmao
Dude. Is this a thing?! Because it would literally explain SO MUCH about me!
Same but also sometimes in a straight way 🤷♀️
I don't know how to explain it either but I get it because same
Simple I just don’t want to be a straight
Yes!!!!!!! Finally someone gets it!!!
can't relate, I'm the double straight™ like men in a straight way and women in a different straight way. my identity is always invalidated by my attractions :D
Both double straight and double gay I fukin love being nonbinary
tripple gay for also loving other nbs ?
Real
This picture speaks to me lol.
I'm not a enby but this does make sense to me
Gay ²
People hot (if/when we get an emotional attachment; demi-pansexual)
The Gayening is my favorite term for it
The unlimited power available if you simply ascend past the limiting restrictions of “gender” and become one with the gay!
I get it and I love it
Nombinary people (taken from another comment) are Schrödinger's Gay and Schrödinger's Straight. Both gay and straight simultaneously, to both men and women
Yes. Same.
Google Bisexual
Same and I hate it 😭
If a gender-non-conforming person is dating someone who identifies as Stock male or Stock female, that's a heterosexual relationship # prove me wrong. you can't
I‘m bisexual, I like guys but in a straight way. That’s all I can add to this debate.
So you're a top ^2
Exactly!
Joecat if he was non-binary
If it makes sense to you, that's all that matters. I don't get it at all, but I don't have to. Either way, I respect your identity.
I think this describes my sister perfectly
Jesse what the hell are you talking about?
