Since I'm ace it's really easy to understand why people are bi/pan/Omni, etc. Because I guess I see everyone the same kind of? And like yeah I totally get that everyone is attractive even though they don't attract me it makes sense that people are attracted to lots of people. If that makes sense.

Also I wish I didn't live in such a homophobic and transphobic area because like when I meet someone I'd love to say "hi I'm beth, my pronouns are she/her!" but where I live I can't really do that without people most likely being mean and stuff. And in general I just wish saying your pronouns was a part of normal introductions, because I feel bad just using whatever pronouns "seem to fit" someone. Most of the time at least when I see someone online (like in a random reel or something) I just use they/them pronouns because I don't want to assume anything, and also why not? It's pretty much what it's used for traditionally, you don't know someone's gender or preferred pronouns so you use they/them. (Example, they dropped their wallet I hope I can find them and give it back)

Disclaimer: I'm cis so I'm no expert about any of this I'm just trying to be a good ally, but if you're trans or gnc and I'm doing something wrong please tell me! /gen

Also aren't tone indicators cool? I like them when I can remember what they stand for, and if you don't know what I'm talking about then here:
