Bisexuality

Trans terminology

What the term means

An orientation involving attraction to more than one gender, not necessarily to the same degree or in the same way.

In detail

This entry describes gender identity, expression or sexual orientation, depending on the specific term. These are distinct dimensions of a person’s life: identity cannot be inferred reliably from clothes, appearance or preferred BDSM role. Respectful language follows the person’s own self-description.
