Asexual = not attracted to anyone
Nonbinary = a male or female who thinks he or she is neither
Intersex = hermaphrodite

Or if you want the actual definitions rather than Oliver telling other people how they identify.

Asexuality isn’t about not being attracted to someone, it is not having sexual feelings towards individuals.

Nonbinary is someone who doesn’t identify as either gender, they would use They/Them pronouns.

Intersex is a general term used for a variety of conditions in which a person is born with a reproductive or sexual anatomy that doesn't seem to fit the typical definitions of female or male. For example, a person might be born appearing to be female on the outside, but having mostly male-typical anatomy on the inside.

And completely dismissive of other people’s struggles and discriminatory towards non binary people.

Depends what the scale looks like, appreciating that someone is good looking/attractive, I'm sure everyone can do (whether they would admit it or not)

I’d agree with this take on things

I am straight.....I think certain women are beautiful and I can see the attraction to them but I don't feel sexually attracted to them.

Of course there is, being able to admit that someone is good looking isn’t a sexual trait, it’s realism, if a man is sat around a dinner table and his girlfriend/wife, friends or sister is talking about a hot guy, them saying something like ‘he is a good looking bloke I’ll give you that’ doesn’t mean there’s a chance he’ll be in a darkroom in a gay club at some point.

I personally think it’s actually very disrespectful to wilfully ignore someone’s sexuality that way, I wouldn’t like it if someone kept telling me that I’m not actually gay, I’m whatever percentage straight, it’s invalidating someone’s truth.

I can't select either of the yes items in the poll though as I don't necessarily agree with either

This was my problem also..

It seems all of the answers were going for the same narrative even if the yes answer was disagreeing With that narrative

A bad poll imo

same, can't really vote in this poll either myself

I can recall a comedy years ago where a guy was flirting with a young woman ... she said that she was lesbian ... that she only ‘liked’ women and immediately the clueless guy said ‘ wow , I’m lesbian as well !’

I wondered if it was Joey in Friends ..

I'm 100 percent heterosexual.

[Liam-]

I might need a doctor because for once, I’m actually somewhat in agreement with Oliver on something, I feel ill

[Cal.]

I think it’s just personal to everybody isn’t it?

[Cal.]

I’m as gay as they come but I’d be lying if I said some ladies don’t tickle me fancy every now and then

There are men who I think are aesthetically attractive but I've never had any sexual desire towards a male... Like I don't find the idea "gross" or anything, in theory I have no issue with it at all, like if someone said "you have to do sexy time with a man OR U DIEEE" I'd be like "OK whatevz" not "Oh Nooo"... But yeah, I've never experienced any arousal or desire for another male so that's basically 100% boring ol' het isn't it.

Giving or taking...or a bit of both?

Bisexuality is to be sexually attracted to both genders, unless every legal and consenting hole is a goal, you aren't bisexual.

Most straight people aren't ever likely to be attracted at all to the same sex, some might have a dalliance with it, just like some gay people might end up experimenting with hetero sex, but unless you're bisexual then it's doomed to to be just that, really, a blip.

Sexuality simply isn't a fluid thing for the majority of people.
