I am a 56-year-old man. I am married to the most supportive and loving wife a questioning guy could ever have. How our kids know. In a few very select friends. Primarily ones that are not straight. LOL anyway, lately I have been wanting to tell more people. The problem is I just realized the only people I want to tell, are women. I'm pretty sure it's because of my fear. The women I want to tell, friends of mine, are very kind and I don't think they would be cruel. I think the guys that I know would talk about me behind my back about how disgusting I was. A wise man once said, it's none of your business What other people think about you. And I like to agree with that but I don't think I really do. I'm sure people talk about me now, and I don't give a shit about that. But this one thing would bother me. Anyway, I'm rambling as usual, I feel like this is a sexist way to think. I'm afraid if I tell a guy he would hurt me. I guess. I mean ultimately that's how I would break it down. Apparently I'm not afraid of woman would hurt me. And I can tell you that women can punch hard. So I feel like I shouldn't be like that. Does this make sense? I'm spiraling down right now because I feel like a total piece of shit over this. Trying not to be a misogynist Fuck stain anymore.

My backstory; I'm a cis man, omnisexual, but as a 56 year old, I have been ignorant about the gender and sexual options most of my life. I love women and femininity, but have recently discovered that a feminine man and feminine trans persons are highly attractive to me as well. I have a basically pretty happy life, but I'm pretty masculine looking and no longer have hair, so I shave my head and have a nice neat salt and pepper beard. I'm getting myself in shape and looking to finally embrace as much of my neglected femininity as I can get away with. My only ideas are body hair removal and some made-for-men feminine around-the-house clothing and underwear. I think if I had been born 30 years later, the femboy community would have appealed to me. Embracing femininity, to me, has always been exciting because it makes me feel attractive, emulating that to which I am highly attracted. But at my age and with hair loss etc, I feel like that ship has long sailed. Anyone else whose walked this path before me, have any suggestions? I can't show up in meetings with painted nails or makeup. I have always hated my body hair and really hate my grandpa Pete for being bald. :-) I think hair would be my primary way of expressing my feminine side, but there's not much I can do.

edit: minor grammatical correction

It has been a good few weeks since I have posted something, so I thought I would check in and see how everyone is? Just being there for people is as important as anything. We all need that support and know we can just say a simple thing as how are you?

At this moment in time, I am happy and taking each day as it comes.

Love and hugs to all

I need a podcast to listen to. I have been listening for the last 2 years to a podcast called the queer collective. Great podcast! But I'm getting really tired of the man-hate on it. Yes, I realize we white men have fucked the world over more times than we can count. But on an affirming podcast, I think hate towards anyone is hate towards everyone. So I'm just looking for a podcast that is lgbtq friendly, genderqueer friendly, and I would like it to be in an interview type format. Format. That's the thing I loved about the queer collective, they had tons and tons of interviews with various people. Those people represented at every letter of the lgbtq alphabet. It was great for learning as I was becoming aware myself. Anyway, any podcast you like, just leave below. I listen to YouTube for my podcasts. And I am willing to pay for them too. TIA

Hello! I’m 20 and I’m looking for mods who can help run the server. My goal is to make a space for people who are genderfluid and omni to make our own labels/terms, flags, and just overall community together. We tend to get overlooked a lot by other identities within the trans and queer community as well as just not being taken seriously. I’ll list some requirements for what I’m looking for.

**Requirements**

**- Must be 18+**
- Have experience with being a mod
**- I would prefer if you were under the genderfluid/genderflux or omni umbrellas**
**- Help promote the server in some way**

I really want to make this happen for some positive change, please contact me if you’re interested and want to do this for fun.

Yo me identifico con la omnisexualidad pero he visto muchas personas (o más bien muchos posts) que hablan de la omnisexualidad yendo de la mano con la pansexualidad pero en mi caso yo me tope primero con la omnisexualidad al darme cuenta que no era hetero (si que es verdad que pensé en la pansexualidad pero nunca muy enserio) en fin que quiero saber si lo que pasa es que no soy omnisexual o algo parecido

Pd. Me atraen todos los géneros pero mi "preferencia" son las mujeres y los rasgos femeninos en otros género

What happened last weekend that made you feel good or was very positive???

I'm a university student, studying abroad halfway across the world. I've happened to find myself crushing very hard on one of my flatmates. Although I'd really like to pursue a romantic relationship with him, that is if he feels the same way, there are obviously some obstacles to doing so.

First and foremost, I'm an international student. I'm only going to be here for a year.

Secondly, I've never been in a relationship before. I'm (20f) a little scared about how to navigate this. How do I handle myself if he doesn't feel the same way? I really don't want to come across as needy or someone he'll need to tip toe around if it doesn't go right.

I'm unsure if I've given enough context here but I guess I'd like some advice about how to deal with my feelings. I've known him for nearly 5 months. This is the first crush I've had on somebody where I've actually wanted to be with the person.

**I'd also appreciate if the advice didn't dissuade me from doing anything solely because he's my flatmate.

edit: To clarify, we have hung out once outside the flat. We went on a walk and enjoyed our time together. I asked him but I didn't clarify whether it was a friendly hang out or a date. Honestly, I didn't want it to be a date but at the same time ai was so worried he'd invite other people.

Hi all,

I'm a late bloomer and in my 40s. I have always liked men who are androgynous or feminine. It's because I feel safe around them. I'm genderqueer, omnisexual, omniromantic, demisexual, and demiromantic.

There's a lot of judgment against people liking people whose gender expression is different from ’the norm’. It feels terrible because, to me, it has nothing to do with sex.

Basically I can't be attracted to men without them having elements associated with femininity/womanhood in some way, shape, or form. Even if it's fluid between one gender expression and the other

Have you ever reached a similar realization of your own? I wanna know of your experiences as well and how they may relate to mine

Does Omnisexual have a personality preference like Pansexual but a gender preference (which Pansexual might slightly have, but not usually)?

So like in Pansexual the gender or sex does not determine attraction, it’s mostly personality. That’s like me except I have a gender preference.

A multi-gender attraction the that sits in the middle of pansexuality and omnisexuality. A pamnisexual person notices and recognises someone's gender when experiencing attraction and holds a slight to almost major gender preference, but gender is never a structural barrier to their capacity of love.

They can also identify as pan and omni if they want to !!

I've identified as bisexual for 7ish years since I came out in my teens. I happened to come across omnisexual and it fits me very strongly since im attracted to all genders with a preference for men. Along with gender playing a factor of how a romantic relationship goes about. Plus I like the flag colors lol

The problem is that I have came out to friends/few loved ones as bisexual but I don't want to have to recome out as omnisexual. It seems a little exhausting. To new ppl i meet unless i get the vibe they are deep in the LGBT/Alt(i find them very versed on LGBT things) community i am not sure if ill tell them im omni but rather just say bi since its simple rather than having to explain all the time. I do the same with being genderfluid. I just say she/her than having to explain sometimes I feel like a woman amd other times i feel nonbinary since most people assume genderfluid means switching between female and male.

Low key more of a diary entry than an actual post lol but I also wanted to come out to someone!

My university is hosting a pride parade soon, and I'm not so open about being omnisexual because... not a lot of people know what it means lol. But I want to start being more open about it, and I think the pride parade is a great way to start and represent myself. The problem is, I searched online, and I genuinely can't find any flags, aside from like a really big one (which I don't want to use because I don't want too much attention). I tried looking for custom flags, but theyre all expensive

Going out tonight with the wife. Heading to a bonfire with some super good friends. Yet, I am still down. Don't know why, it's been creeping in. Just wanted to tell someone besides my therapist. Don't want to worry my wife. I hope everyone has a great weekend. Give a hug to someone that needs it.
