I had a member of the same sex flirt with me at a party. Then I realized, hey, I'm as attracted to them just as much as I would be the opposite sex. I thought I was bisexual, until I learned that bisexuals weren't attracted to newhalfs. I'm fine with newhalfs. So then I assumed I was pansexual.
But the more I think about it, the more I realize that I'm just a sadomasochist. It doesn't really matter who or what is at the end. I don't think that's a sexual orientation, but if it is that's what I am. It's never really been about any kind of body type at all, as long as they're down for S&M and I can do it legally. Whether this means I'm still technically a pansexual or a fetishist seems to be a weird point of debate. If I'm a fetishist, there's another debate on whether that can be considered a part of the LGBT spectrum or not.
So that's how I went from not LGBT to LGBT to "sometimes considered LGBT depending on who you ask." I'm glad to be so liminal in everything I do. It's also interesting that my sexuality is so deeply affected by my pathology to the point of inheriting my obsession with power dynamics. Hooray!
