		<description>I&#039;m with you on this. Here was how I answered the question on my own blog:

&quot;&quot;I’m queer. I’m not straight and I’m not gay. I’m a little bent (hence, not straight). I won’t take offense to being called bisexual, as that label seems to be one that most people can understand. But I personally identify as queer. To me, queer is not straight. And I am not straight. I’m a fan of saying that I fall in love with fabulosity, not genitalia. I like who I like, regardless of gender or sex. 

I just personally prefer “queer” to “bisexual” because I feel like it is a less rigid definition and is inclusive of people who may be genderqueer or trans or anything other than &quot;male&quot; or &quot;female.&quot; If I say I’m bisexual, it implies that I am only attracted to men and women. If I say I’m queer, it allows for the inclusion of men, women, FTMs, MTFs, and any gender variance in between.&quot;</description>
