No, because its no sexuality. I have the same emotional range, i only fall in love and feel attracted to women that i know. But this nonsense to give everything a name and categorize to a minimalism just to play victim. Stop THIS! Its just heterosexual, homosexual or bi sexual, and everything else is just a personal leaning/emotion and has no nonsense right to be clasified and nippicked.
@Nr.7-Seven what is nonsense is how everything is accused of being victimized when it drifts from societal norms. First of all, everyone needs to stop using the term "victim" in a negative context to invalidate someone/something. It just cinfirms how the whole "victim" narrative was created to shame victims into silence. Second, how the hell does this even fall into the victim category??? It's a sexuality. Again, shows how you use the term victim to invalidated. Thirdly, why are you threatened by this? You comment shows you have massive insecurity regarding your iwn sexualiry. One woman admires this and you attack it as a whole. Maybe you should focus more on your own identity amd not worry about others', yeah?
As a woman, being demisexual is incredibly frustrating because our society has come to believe that if you aren't madly, passionately "in love" from the get go, you aren't interested in the other person or you don't think the other person is attractive; and that if you want to be friends first to develop the relationship, you will never want a more intimate relationship. Worse yet, there are guys who will falsely accuse you of being manipulative or "playing games" if you aren't immediately ready for intimacy.
Me too. I'm now glad. Typicals can get very upset over the unexpected emotions which come from "casual" encounters. We don't put the cart before the horse.
It’s ok, so am I and I’m on the autism spectrum 👌🏼✨ my boundaries and not wanting to hurry makes it frustrating to stick with someone. I wish I was more understood that way.
I'm demisexual, and I hate it when all the girls are like, do you have a crush, and I always say no because I don't get many emotional connections and I'm the only demisexual person I know in my entire school
It shouldn't be, it's pretty standard practice to build some sort of connection before being intimate with a person. Why there is a label for this is beyond me.
@@heatherwilliams3748 They don't feel any sexual attraction prior to the strong emotional bond, while it would be "normal" to feel the sexual attraction, but to choose to ignore it until you have a bond. Demisexual peoole don't have any sexual feelings to anybody, if there isn't a strong bond and don't just desite to wait.
I consider myself a demisexual but dude don't use the rainbow flag unless you're actually gay! I am straight so people don't look at me weird when I get into a relationship, okay. Many not so moons ago demisexual was the literal norm (well, it was the most socially acceptable sexuality, not everyone was demisexual but society supported that sexuality the most), courting was the norm. People got to know each other first and it has only been in recent times that people have F-ed on the first date. In fact it is estimated that 60-70 percent of women are demisexual and it is our natural sexual behaviour because biologically speaking the woman need to make sure the father is emotionally invested in the mother and baby. Demisexuality is the norm, really, if you are a woman. But unusual for a guy so I do see why you use that flag but still the flag was made for the gay's or weird sexualities but when the flag was made demisexuality was the most encouraged (even if you weren't demisexual) sexuality in the world. Just saying coming from a demisexual who values courting, I would have thrived pre-sexual revolution not died.
I’m genuinely not trying to argue with your identity you rock it how you like but you can also be gay, straight, or bi and Demi it’s not exclusive and people weren’t all “Demi” just because they courted people. “Normal” People as a whole find sexual attraction to some degree when they see someone regardless if they had the “morals” to be celibate.
This is actually not true, most women aren't demisexual, they just choose to wait, but experience sexual attraction, while demisexual oeople don't and no it wasn't the norm back then, because even they courted because of sexual attraction.
Comparing being a Christian to Demisexual smh. The thing is u made the choice to follow those beliefs (which more power to u btw) but being Demisexual is not a choice (U don’t choose how or who u feel attached to). U just flat out don’t feel sexual attraction unless u form a very intense bond which is a lot different of a stipulation then waiting to get married. Also the intense bond is not a guarantee that the sexual attraction will happen it’s just a possibility.
The label "demisexual" does not itself, say in itself, which gender/s you can feel s- attraction to. (there is demistraight, demihomo, demipan, demibi...)
It has nothing to do with the gender(s) your attracted to. It’s basically a stipulation to your attraction. It affects how u feel your attraction to the gender(s) u are attached to.
@@mariesprowl2348 That makes it sound like all Demisexual people are bi/pan. While that is true the person was asking which gender(s) this means your attracted to. And the answer being that it has nothing to do with which gender(s) your attracted to just how u feel attraction to the ones u are which could be just one or more then one.
Hey how about you DO YOUR RESEARCH please STOP spreading misinformation about this there IS a spectrum and if you know that and your ignoring that then you’re probably a asshole kk 😊
It's true. They were definitely a few years where I thought I was demisexual and I would advertise it whenever I was on dating apps as well as bring it up in conversation when I was trying to date someone. I swear it felt like the fastest way to get rejected after those folks who say they want to wait till marriage for sex. Like I straight up had boys tell me that they don't understand how I can't just have sexual fantasies about crushes and how they need to have sex around date 3 to 5 so despite being great to talk to and having things in common they didn't want to try and go on a first date with me 🥲. Honestly it was terrible especially since I already have social anxiety so putting myself out there was a lot and then getting rejected all the time basically made me lose hope and become more of a misanthrope.
I wish there were more men who openly identified this way
No, because its no sexuality. I have the same emotional range, i only fall in love and feel attracted to women that i know.

Thank your for this short, a fellow demisexual.
Me too. I'm now glad. Typicals can get very upset over the unexpected emotions which come from "casual" encounters. We don't put the cart before the horse.
Yeah that's what ppl don't get about how demisexual is different than waiting to be sexual.
It used to be that you got to know someone first. You "courted" to give those emotions time to build. Now people expect intimacy right at the start.
It’s ok, so am I and I’m on the autism spectrum 👌🏼✨ my boundaries and not wanting to hurry makes it frustrating to stick with someone. I wish I was more understood that way.
💜✨️ Yeah, me too! ⚘️
YES it's so annoying that people are like oh that's not real😢
Me too 🥹 and I think all of us need another of us 🙏
Me too 😊, i think you are a very attractive person. You will find a loving partner 🤗.
Btw cute Pikachu sweater! 😊
Same here friend ❤❤
I'm demisexual, and I hate it when all the girls are like, do you have a crush, and I always say no because I don't get many emotional connections and I'm the only demisexual person I know in my entire school
Twining, I can relate 😓
I’m Demi but I didn’t know it was part of the asexual spectrum
I'm demisexual too😢
I'm a demi,but please don't associate demis to crazy rainbow people.
Thats such a cool pokemon shirt i love it
Demisexuality isn't in the lgbtq
It is, part of the Asexual spectrum ❤
@@jessp8238he’s still attracted to women only so 😅
It shouldn't be, it's pretty standard practice to build some sort of connection before being intimate with a person. Why there is a label for this is beyond me.
@@heatherwilliams3748 exactly so demisexuality isn't tin the lgbtq , right?

Rainbow is for lgbtqia+ not just for GAY

We'll said.
This is actually not true, most women aren't demisexual, they just choose to wait, but experience sexual attraction, while demisexual oeople don't and no it wasn't the norm back then, because even they courted because of sexual attraction.
So just, not wanting to do a random person? I don’t want to have sex until I’m married, but that doesn’t mean I’m demisexual, I’m just Christian.
It’s not about wanting to or not, it’s the absence of sexual attraction without emotional elements

The thing is u made the choice to follow those beliefs (which more power to u btw) but being Demisexual is not a choice (U don’t choose how or who u feel attached to).

@@ThomasHenley Alr, I just misunderstood you
You’re awesome
What! Hey I follow you because of my neurodivergent studies and you’re like me in this way too what!!!
What is demisexual?
What it does mean? I’m not a kid it’s just for know
Hi I’m ton me is very confused 🤷♀️
So does that mean you like males or females?
The label "demisexual" does not itself, say in itself, which gender/s you can feel s- attraction to. (there is demistraight, demihomo, demipan, demibi...)
It means you’re only attracted to people you feel an emotional connection to verses casual encounters and hookups.
It has nothing to do with the gender(s) your attracted to. It’s basically a stipulation to your attraction. It affects how u feel your attraction to the gender(s) u are attached to.
@@mariesprowl2348 That makes it sound like all Demisexual people are bi/pan. While that is true the person was asking which gender(s) this means your attracted to. And the answer being that it has nothing to do with which gender(s) your attracted to just how u feel attraction to the ones u are which could be just one or more then one.
@@davidstratton696 Correct; hence my answer about being attracted to ‘people’ whom they feel an emotional connection.
It’s not a gender issue.
Oh well... I am the same but I am not demisexual. And I hate this holier-than-thou attitude. Looking down on people is not part of my sexuality.
No Father Figure.
You 😂😂
There is no spectrum. You’re either asexual or you’re not
Life changing info, cheers 🤣
Hey how about you DO YOUR RESEARCH please STOP spreading misinformation about this there IS a spectrum and if you know that and your ignoring that then you’re probably a asshole kk 😊
