ok, i see. this is a complete misunderstanding then.

i undersrand "heterosexual" as being attracted to a person of a different gender then ones own. this is what i operated on and i think if you go back and reread what i said, while keeping this in mind, this should clear things up.

Which is wrong on multiple levels.

now, what you did here is exactly what you are accusing me of. you are imposing your definition of heterosexuality onto me and denying my own.

I as a man can only be heterosexual if I exclusively am attracted to women.

ok, please keep in mind i am a nonbimary person myself. while i am not denying you your definition and never did, i consider claiming that heterosexuality is inherently nonbinary exclusive, to be quite binarynormative, bordering on nonbinaryphobic. heterosexuality is not just something for binary people. a binary person saying they are not attracted to nonbinary people because they are striaght, is a massive red flag to me.

And enbies are not women, even if AFAB. They are neither man nor woman, that's what makes them non-binary, that's the point.

if i were uncharitable, i could say, that your defnition for nonbinary is excluding nonbinary men and women (which is an actual and valid thing ppl identify as) and denying peoples genders. i wont tho, because i get what you mean.

i hope you can understand how you behaved immendsy rude here. you attacked me seemingly without even trying to understand what i am saying and in the process you repeatedly did exactly what you accused me of doing, arguably in worse.
