NP. Thanks, but I don't plan to spend one second of my valuable life "learning the difference" on something so ridiculous.

Then dating apps will continue to frustrate you. Get used to your hand.

Agreed. You'll get along better with your kids, too.

+10000. Agree, OP, it's crazy. So is the Facebook option of make-up-your-own gender.

It's done to satisfy pornsick men's fetishes.

You don’t know what demisexual means if you think men have fetishes about it.

Demisexual, pan sexual, and heteroflexible are not gender identities. They are sexualities. Someone can be cisgender and straight, bi, gay, pansexual or heteroflexible in terms of who they are attracted to. Demisexual means you are only attracted sexually when you have a romantic connection.

I think this will bother you less if you learn the meanings of the terms.

For what it matters, I’m a middle aged, cisgender, straight woman.

They need a born as a male or female option.

This complaint is ultimate nothing burger. There's the same amount of non heterosexual person as there was in the past. Only now, people feel comfortable about it as they no longer face violent persecution, legal, economic, and (significantly less) social discrimination.

Why shouldn't dating apps that want to cater to all demographics do so? At the end of the day, that's equality means- everybody's money is equally green.


There's a very easy solution to your problem. If you're female and heterosexual, choose female and heterosexual on dating apps. If that's too complicated for you, then dating apps are not for you.
