If you are bi/pan or are in a relationship with a bi/pan person and prefer to call your relationship gay, lesbian, or straight, that’s still fine! It’s a matter of personal choice! These terms exist for comfort, not as a rule for everyone.
Translation: "the heavy metal; the the ice-cold beer; the trans woman; you woudn't understand".
I just noticed that Lady Rainicorn seems to have a trans flag on her back and I thought the meme went really well with Jake.
Some time ago, I saw many people on Twitter arguing that cisgender hetero asexual people are not part of the community, and that cishet aromantic and intersex people aren't either. People seem to think that being asexual, aromantic, or intersex isn't enough to belong to the community, and they view the presence of cishet individuals within it as a threat.
They say that acephobia doesn't exist and that no one suffers for being asexual.
When I mentioned that my boyfriend—because he is straight and demisexual and therefore doesn't feel immediate attraction to women—was mistaken for gay and a gay friend of his tried to force a kiss on him because of it, I was told that this had nothing to do with him being asexual. When I mentioned a brazilian streamer (Cellbit) who suffered abuse from his girlfriend in an attempt to "fix" his asexuality, I was told that this had nothing to do with the fact that he is asexual.
After trying several times to raise awareness among the people on that site, I eventually gave up, because so many of them think the asexual flag exists merely as a decoration. I even distanced myself from a former friend because, despite being demisexual, she invalidated my boyfriend, saying that he wasn't part of the community and that she doesn't agree with including cishet men in the LGBTQIA+ community (she considers herself part of the community because she is lesbian and trans, not because she is demisexual, in her own words).
After this situation, I find myself feeling less like part of the community; even though I’m bi, I’m in a relationship with someone of the opposite gender and haven’t felt attracted to anyone else, and apparently, the fact that I’m asexual doesn’t matter at all to most people.
Do we think that one day we - aces, aros and intersex people - will be more recognized as part of the LGBTQIA+ community and have our voices heard? Because honestly, after this, I think we are never going to, and the community probably will never truly be really united...
I want to make gender pies too to post but I have to think about the metaphors I'll use for them.
other changes I made:
* I changed the bisexual pie meaning too to make it clearer that it is not about attraction to only two genders, we're not binary.
* Duaric means feeling attraction to the opposite gender, so straight people are duaric too by definition. That's why I changed the "your pie is not straight" to "your pie can be straight... OR NOT".
I want to make gender pies too and other pies to post but I have to think about the metaphors I'll use for them.

edit: I'm not trying to make the bisexuality a binary orientation. I am bisexual and I'm? attracted to all genders just like the pansexual people. I wrote "you can enjoy a variety of flavors" because we can feel attraction to a lot of genders/every gender just like the pansexuals, we can also enjoy swalty pies.
This is an image I edited in Ibis Paint to make the Pringles logo change according to the flavor.
Narancia is 17 and Mista is 18, It's not morally wrong. (I'm explaining this because I already posted about it in another subreddit and people started saying it was problematic because of age gap)
I actually made this for myself, but I wanted to share this idea with other people
