Such a nostalgic read, I haven't heard about this debate in like a decade 🥲

I use bi because to me attraction to different genders feels distinctly different, but like, there's no divide. Use whatever feels right and don't assume things about others

I'm pan, but tell most people I'm bi so I don't have to have an argument about the distinction between a term they likely know and is close enough and something they haven't heard of.

Weird, maybe it's just my friend circles. I have a couple of pan pals and it didn't come up even once

Yeah, I worded that oddly. I don't really bring it up, but I'm not putting myself in a position where I need to explain that to my evangelical grandparents or parents.
