    Can you keep track of all the new sexualities? Will even more show up? Here on politicalforum.com the asexuality flag is used as an avatar by ARDY:

    Anybody who needs a month to be proud is... missing something vitally important.

    Not really human, to be honest. A human is proud of their accomplishments. Not because it is that time of the year.

    I have a theory about all these extra sexualities.

    I don't think transgender is a sexuality it is a gender identity. I think it is something fundamentally different than sexual orientation. They're really all grouped together because this all started in the late 60s and transgenders were just consider gay people.

    But something we start seeing is people who are not transgender adopting transgender identities. Their heterosexual they don't want to identify as the opposite sex or even the sex that they are, they want to be non-binary or some other made up gender.

    I think for a lot of people this is an attempt to hijack the transgender identity, the people I see often adopting the non-binary gender identity are white people. I think the entire reason that this exists and so that white people can claim they have some sort of minority status.

    Hedging their bets in the casino known as oppression Olympics.

    What if someone claims white is a sexuality (or a gender ID or w/e)?

    Don't forget the MAP flag... (that's minor attracted persons, or pedophiles to the less politically correct)

    Whites have privilege they don't need placement in the oppression hierarchy. That's for Muslims and non binary

    That is the point. :)

    Although if you read the comments there are many people that find it very loving.

    It does creep me out however.

    Some LGB's are rejecting the T's. Lesbians are now complaining that transsexuals are claiming to be a) women, and b) lesbian, but to a real lesbian, a guy in a dress wanting to get with her doesn't cut it. And then there's this flag, because apparently the original rainbow flag only represents white people...

    Reminds me of that creepy doll the guy invented that said, "Everything is okay," when you pulled the string. It wasn't Shark Tank, but the inventor show before that one, I forget the name. Anyway, one of the invention analyzers said to him, "If you need a doll to tell you everything's okay, everything is not okay," which about summed it up for me. It looked something like the creature in your video there, only dark brown and furry.

    They’re not new sexualities, just new or shifting labels and categories. People have always had a tendency to want to put themselves and others in to defined groupings because it makes it much easier to have simplistic attitudes and reactions to a few large groups than a whole series of different individuals. I happens with sexuality and gender but it also happens with politics, religion, generation, culture, nationality, income, occupation, education… pretty much anything people can be defined by in fact. Ironically, it happens when people moan about all those people making up new categories when we’re so much better than that.

    That's why its always called a "slippery slope" when we go outside the norm of human existence.

    I don't know, I think once they do accept them it's over for them.

    So what such attitudes and reactions would one hope to elicit by claiming membership in a group in which one clearly has no place, and why?

    The heterosexual pride parade will have blue and pink flags. Their mascot is Brad Pitt.

    Is that a real thing or made up? I don't keep up on the sexual pride stuff, so I don't know what's real or not.
