Indoctrination / DoublethinkIs this a "trans-identified" man claiming to be a "lesbian" or a "trans-identified" woman claiming to be a "gay man", because I'm confused-

Pretty sure trans identified woman who doesn't know that bisexuality exists.

Unlike actual men and women, transmen and transwomen like to refer to themselves as "boys" and "girls" respectively. My guess would be that this person is a trans-identified, possibly non-binary female. I picture her to be a straight woman who collects labels for herself. In this example, it seems like she's seeking permission to identify as both a lesbian and a gay man at the same time. In reality, she is neither.

I feel like these types of screenshots should be collected and sold as a puzzle book where you flip to the last page to see the answers.

That sounds about right. Trans is frequently used as a way to reclaim some youth, by pretending to be more innocent and naive than they actually are. To roleplay as someone fairly young and still discovering themselves. But they usually get it all wrong about the other sex.

When it comes to actual boys and girls, they're less likely to refer to themselves like that unless they are very young. (Especially males, who would probably prefer other terms, like 'guy')

Oh yeah; like some Encyclopedia Brown book for Adults.

Using your knowledge of genderwoo and from the clues provided, What was their actual sex and sexuality?

Turn to page xx for the solution.

Surely she knows that aesthetic attraction exists. Even as a lesbian, I can recognise and admire the beauty of male actors, singers, models but not be sexually attracted to them.

You’d be surprised the amount of young women who think that just because they find a woman beautiful, means that they are bisexual

Also someone gives this individual ideas that they are "a non-binary pansexual" (it's the last comment on that thread) ...
