I think I'm a biromantic heterosexual or more specificaly, a polyromantic heterosexual. I am romanticly attracted to more than 2 genders, and i'm not sure if I am to all of them.

Asexual but I have no idea about the "romantic" bit.

Selected heteroromantic asexual, but could just as well have selected heteroromantic heterosexual. I don't think asexual fits on the LGB scale at all. It's on it's own scale.

Homoromantic asexual fits the best, although I usually just describe myself as gay and don't talk about being asexual very much in real life.

How do "romantics" work? I thought you were attracted to:

The same gender (gay or lesbian)
The opposite gender (straight)
Both/all genders (bi/pan)
Nobody (asexual)

Is that... wrong?

"Gynotropic Male" - but there's no option for that.

Yes. If you are asexual it is thought that it would be meaningless to give your sexual orientation (which I disagree with), but since many asexual people do want relationships, romantic defines who they want to have relationships with. The problem is that many neurodiverse people that identify as asexual do it because they dislike sexual intercourse, and thus can very well have a sexual orientation, but just don't like regular sexual intercourse. I surely have a sexual orientation (heterosexual), but I don't want to involve in typical sex so I self-identify as asexual anyway.

Then what is "Heteroromantic Homosexual"? And "Homoromantic Heterosexual"? And Aromantic Homosexual? Aromantic Heterosexual? Aromantic Bisexual?

Don't these contradict each other?

I am straight, but I sometimes view myself as more "questioning" than straight.

I'm heterosexual/heteroromantic.

I just like girls! hee hee!

I think guys are okay....but I don't want to get all romantic with them, or sexual.
