OKCupid Switches to Gender Word Salad for Describing Sexual Orientation

I knew it was only a matter of time, given the number of gender freaks and Tumblr feminists on the website, but OKCupid has added a series of brave-new-world "gender categories" for self-indentification, after holding out for years with a simplified system based in reality (gay, straight, bi-sexual).

Over the years, I've seen dozens of shaved-head Mad Max extras furiously complaining about being "restricted" in their profiles, and it seems like the pussies who run OKC have finally relented.

To paraphrase a famous comedian, you're either amenable to sucking dick or you're not.

Great. Now the freaks will self-select themselves out my search criteria.

Evidently this is a limited roll-out. My fake profile (female) has the option, but my real one (male) doesn't.

Very suspicious.

Another story on this. Excerpt:

Quote:Quote:

Jamie Flez, who identifies as fluid agender and uses the pronoun “they,” said they were discouraged from using the site for the same reason. “This is the number one reason I disabled my account,” they said in a Facebook message. “It’s frustrating looking at my profile each time I log in and seeing that I’m a ‘man.’ according to OkCupid.”

Probably had a free account to begin with. If I were OKCupid, I'd make these extra identifiers part of the upgraded pay account. [Image: lol.gif]

Wait - holy hell - does "Demisexual" mean "God-sexual?" Like you only fuck with other gods?

Cause that'd be awesome.

Edit: Actual definition:

Quote:Quote:

Demisexuals are characterized by a lack of sexual attraction toward any person unless they become deeply emotionally or romantically connected with a specific person or persons. The level of connection it takes for sexual desire to form is dependent on how close the relationship is rather than initial attraction. It is an orientation that is not chosen.

So apparently wanting an emotional connection before sex is now an orientation.

I like the way this sounds. For sex alone my standards are pretty loose but in order to be "in a relationship" with a woman I think I need that deeper level of emotional connection. Interesting.

Well this might actually be a good thing because it sorts out the crazies from the regular girls.

Regular girls will just say their Straight (or sometimes bisexual). Although the tattooed crazy freaks you don't want to mess with will describe themselves as everything else.

Great filtering mechanism in actuality!

Maybe some guys want to mess with the freaks. Not everyone is looking for a LTR.

Haha, well there you go - the same still applies.

If you want to fuck with the freaks then you still have an easy way to identify them: just look up pan, trans, demi, whatever sexual. Haha.

I don't think a bitch having one of these labels will make anything more likely, except maybe catching a false rape-charge.

What the fuck.

Who makes up this shit. And how is pansexual different than bisexual? Is that just a trendy hipster way of saying you will fuck anything.

Homoflexible? Is that a guy that prefers guys but will take anything, or a fag that does yoga?

Sounds like a great way for a woman to extract attention and resources from a man without being expected to ever put out.

Wait, so what's the difference between gay and queer? No need to answer, I don't really care, just wanted to point out how stupid this is.

On a related note, the term 'cisgender' offends me. It is a sneaky way of normalizing transgenderism by creating a term to parallel it. I wish no harm to transgenders, but it's a mental illness that should be treated, not something that should be equated with being normal.

Anyway, it's just another way for stupid feminists and hipsters to make themselves more 'quirky' and thus in their minds, more attractive. They've bought the feminist lie that these personality traits will make them more attractive to men. Listening to us would get them much farther:

Don't be fat
Be feminine
Don't be a cunt

Instead, it's "I'm a body positive, plus size, demipansexualqueer. Doesn't my short, purple hair make me interesting? Now where's my attractive business guy?"

Pansexual is how the crazies say bisexual. I'd stay away from that one.

Sapiosexual means they are attracted to intelligence, but what they really mean is they are attracted to people who agree with them on all their ridiculous beliefs.

People put way to much thought into this. The only options should be "I have a penis/vagina" and I am looking for a "penis/vagina/both".

We need to come up with our own vocabulary for "gender identities" for regular men:

Assmanoflexible: You're an ass-man, but you sometimes will flip temporarily to tit-man for a juicy set of titties.

Titmanoflexible: Same shit as above, but reverse ass and titties.

Rawdogisexual: You have a strong preference for raw-dogging, despite whatever risks.

Panpussial: Will bang anything with a (real) pussy.

Fluid Prosexual: Love busting your nut on bitches' faces, titties, or the small of their backs.

No Questioning: You have killer instinct and push for bangs on the first date.

Sometimes when a girl says "but I want to get to knnnnooooowwwww you better first" I'll reply, "I'm sorry, but I'm only attracted to women I don't know that well." Call it Strangersexual.

Strangersexual: You have a strong preference for having sex with women you don't know that well, and prefer not to get to know them.

Haha, you should use Latin to make it legit. Maybe OkCupid will add them. Here are a few more.

tenuis-sexual: Derived from Latin, this means I'm only attracted to thin girls. It can't be helped.

flaviasexual: Also Latin this means I'm only attracted to blondes.

I'd also say I'm the opposite of a Sapiosexual, I'm not sure what that'd be called.

OKCupid also changed its rating system. Instead of getting to rate people on a 1 to 5 scale, now you just get to click a star to "like."

I assume they did this to appease women who got low ratings. If men complained, they'd have probably doubled down on the system and encouraged women to "name and shame" or something like that.

Yeah that change really pissed me off. I was fond of hitting arrogant, pain-in-the-ass, or feminist bitches with a 1-star and "hide" in rapid succession. I'm pretty sure I played a role in getting that policy changed. I did that to a lot of bitches. I was making up for every thirsty motherfucker giving 5 stars out like candy and gassing these bitches up.

Even not responding to my message was grounds for a 1-star rating. What's a less attractive trait than not liking me?
