I'm not great at math but like Demi = half Bi = two 2 x 1/2 = uni And forgive me, this was technically a "changing the sheets" thought. |

I would understand "monosexual", but only as an antonym of "bisexual", i.e. attracted only to one gender (without indicating which). |

OP, "mono-" is the Greek root. You're looking for "unisexual". |

All due respect to the serious question herein, but the joke I like to make in this situation is to say I'm trisexual: I'll try anything! |

Related question: if you're genderfluid and pansexual, can you simplify and call it omnisexual? (Yes I know sexuality and gender expression are separate, I just want a reason to use the omni- prefix) |

You’re multiplying two numbers while ignoring the unit. Think of it like a vector instead = (2, 0.5). The two numbers represent two different axes, so multiplying them together doesn’t really mean anything. Regardless, initially I still enjoyed the clever joke. 😄Unfortunately, I ruined the fun by thinking about it way too hard. ☹️ |

I look forward to your upcoming paper modeling human sexuality as an n-dimensional vector in the conceptual gender space |

Your petition to introduce omnisexual has been approved by the royal academy for the english language |

I’m calling it the gender and sexuality space, and it’s mostly based on the ideas presented in the gender unicorn infographic. It instructs you to evaluate yourself on 12 different axes, which means you could view this matter as a 12D space in which every individual inhabits a single point. Some of the axes are just labeled “other”, which doesn’t feel rigorous enough, but let’s just go with the 12D space for the time being. If you were to collect enough data, some interesting 12D shapes could emerge. Maybe there are overlapping “cloud” shapes in the population, who knows. |

Yes but how do we model the complex interaction between furries and monster fuckers in this 12D space? I think we're gonna need more dimensions. (on a more serious note the gender unicorn is cute and fun and I love it) |

Because they're easier to have sex on without falling over? |

True, we're just going for intra-series consistency with Roman numerical prefixes. |

Omnisexual is already a thing. It's basically pansexual, but gender plays a role in attraction (i.e. preferences based on gender) |

Have you considered other models than flat plane? Like geometrically hyperbolic gender? Maybe quantum sexuality where it's a wave until you collapse the function by measuring it? |

Proper stretching is important no matter what the sexual preference. |

I figured someone would do something with that (I realized after I typed it and thought - eh, let someone else have some fun, too lol) |

In this geometry, all you need are positive numbers. Complex numbers won’t be required since you can always add another dimension to cover your needs. |

That model could explain how gender fluidity works. Your gender is usually in a superposition until you wake up in the morning and feel it out. It’s not a persistent state, though, since it can flip back to superposition any time. |
