Last night I was seriously considering whether I was a bisexual or not but I don’t think so though I’m not sure if I’d like to be and argh I don’t think there’s anything wrong with that, if you like a person, you like the person, not their genitals.
About This Quote
Interpretation
The speaker narrates an anxious, self-questioning moment about sexual identity—specifically whether “bisexual” fits—and then pivots toward an ethic of attraction grounded in personhood rather than anatomy. The quote captures the fluidity and uncertainty that can accompany self-labeling, while also rejecting shame: even contemplating bisexuality is framed as morally neutral. Its concluding line—liking “a person, not their genitals”—articulates a broadly humanistic, anti-reductionist view of desire, emphasizing emotional connection over biological essentialism. As a statement, it resonates with contemporary discussions of sexual fluidity and the limits of rigid categories, while acknowledging the internal conflict (“argh”) that often accompanies such reflection.
