To think this is a heterosexual couple having PIV sex so it isn't particularly shocking or newsworthy that it resulted in a pregnancy?

Or is having short hair supposed to be a form of contraceptive now?

I concede that this is the dictionary definition and is therefore used correctly.

Goodo. It's nice when people don't dig in, and we can agree.

but maybe acknowledge that pansexual is also in the same dictionary

I've never said otherwise, I just think it's a word often used to mean either 'bisexual and attention seeking' or, as op suggests, 'straight but has blue hair'.

I have no skin in this game so am happy just to take the piss about a very narcissistic seeming article; but I can see why gay people might feel their experience is being appropriated by people who feel oppressed but have never experienced homophobia.

Ok, So someone who fancies different people ie pansexual - got pregnant a couple of years before she planned, from um having sex with her husband?

And this is supposed to be remarkable?

I'm bisexual and in a relationship with a man. We are in a heterosexual relationship. Saying we were in a bisexual relationship would make no sense at all.

53rdWay Brilliantly put, thank you.

I feel like these non-binary types consider the rest of us to be real basic bitches. Like they think we sit at home watching the real housewives of New Jersey when we're not at at the tanning salon or get our long pink acrylic nails done whilst drinking prosecco and listening to the Spice Girls.

Mind you, all that stuff is perfectly respectable when trans women do it.

I KNOW!

Its incredible, there was this man, I mean transwoman on the radio saying, 'cis women' are comfortable/conform stereotypes, and I just thought Fuck you. I don't know ANY woman - or man come to that- who is comfortable or who conforms with gender stereotypes, we're all a massive mix of styles, attitudes, orientations, and that's awesome etc.
(But that doesn't change our biology. Twat.)

"You see, I’m not a woman. I never have been."

That's what I find so odd.

Her thinking that she's not a woman doesn't make it so.

What's really odd is the people around her and even on here, validating her dysphoria.

I sometimes wonder whether all of this could be solved with some really great youth music movement. It has all been done before, so they have nothing to make them seem interesting.
*sound of scraping on barrel.

It would seem that feelings are more important than basic biology.

I’m slightly eye rolly at the notion of us non-pansexuals only being attracted to genitals. As if us boring Hetero women only need conformation of a willie and we’re head over heals.

Personality - nope, don’t need it
Shared life goals - not bothered
Decent human being - overrated
Willie owner - Bingo! Come to me Prince umongst men!

Everybody is attracted to “people”. If you don’t fancy people who are the same sex as you, you are heterosexual and if you only fancy people who are the same sex as you you are homosexual and if you are attracted to both you are bi - there aren’t any other options that make sense... well, not in reality, at least.

I think the phrase "necessary but not sufficient condition" applies here.

A lot of "I"s in that article.

It would be funny if it wasn't so sad.

What an utter pillock she is. And how does she know that her child will be a she? It may identify as something else!!!
