I’d encourage these people to question, and where possible reject the idea that people should feel restricted in such away.
And wrt the poster who believes in the categorisation of four sexualities.. i obviously disagree as a result. When gender categories lose their meaning, so do sexuality labels, and even before that, sexuality between the two gender norms is a spectrum.

I would have always considered gender and sex to mean the same thing, a biological thing based on anatomy but apparently gender and sex are different now? and to me, the new meaning of gender is just a bunch of socially constructed stereotypes
