Flexibility is Queer || Pinned Post

While uncommon to see used in online queer communities today, heteroflexible and homoflexible were - and still are, in other spaces - fairly common labels to describe one's orientation. Unlike many other terms, online queer communities seemingly abandoned these instead of expanding them. This blog aims to do so.

What is flexibility?

Flexibility is an expression of being one orientation, yet also experiencing another type of orientation at times.

There are many ways this can manifest, such as a straight man who is attracted to only hyper-feminine men, or a non-binary person who is typically attracted to other non-binary people, but sometimes finds themselves attracted to binary individuals.

Another example is a bisexual woman who has had traumatic experiences in relationships with men, who may identify as homoflexible due to her hetero attraction being more circumstantial and cautious. It can also be a way of describing differing attraction types without the Split Attraction Model: Someone who may be homoromantic bisexual could identify instead as homoflexible.

Flexibility is a different label than bi-orientation (& multispec) and abro-orientation, but they aren't mutually exclusive. It is, however, inappropriate to imply someone who identifies with flexibility that they should identify as bi or abro instead. Even if you, in their situation, would consider yourself bi or abro, that doesn't mean they want to.

Flexibility is typically considered amative (describing how one's attraction manifests), but may also be affinitive (describing what one is attracted to).
