If you are not bisexual or asexual, you are sexist by definition.
- Smaug123 9y agoYour definition is demonstrably unusual. Remember, something is true "by definition" if it's not true for any other reason.
- dsfjksdf 9y agoAccording to Google, the definition of sexism is "prejudice, stereotyping, or discrimination, typically against women, on the basis of sex." So if you don't consider dating somebody because of their sex, by that definition you are sexist?

- dsfjksdf 9y agoI seem to have heard different views a lot from trans people, or the whole gender crowd. I thought the current "correct" stance is that you should not be allowed to prefer one gender over another. What makes you say it is not meaningful discrimination? Remaining alone is among the worst things that can happen to a human being.
