Oh, love! It’s sweet, it’s kind, it’s lovely… and it can make us do some of the kinkiest and crazy things. So what happens when we ask that bold question, “what am I sexually?” - and I mean REALLY ask it, to dig deep into your intimacy and explore its vibrant colors. As challenging as it might sound to delve into, asking this question can indeed unfold a new horizon you never knew existed - where kinks, whimsy, and pleasure merge to form an a-la-carte feast of sexual identity for you to explore, right at your fingertips.

For, in the realm of one’s sexual world lies an enigma – our very own sexual essence as unique as a human being. It’s diverse, it’s profound, and it takes some daring to put yourself out there and unequivocally define what am I sexually. So, as promised, here’s unveiling the spectrum under the spotlight with absolute honesty and intimacy, in a fashion never seen before. It could be kinky and wild, or conversely, sweet and surprising–or perhaps, even educational.

Here I’ve compiled 10 of the vast shades of sexual colors reflecting the multidimensionality of that enigmatic question “what am I sexually”. So take it away, and have at it!

1. Straight, No Chaser

First and arguably the largest segment of the sexual world’s population identifies straight, or heterosexual if you prefer. Engrossed in the more conventionally accepted forms of passion, they are wowed by the charm and dynamics of the opposite sex to fulfill their sexual aspirations.

2. Gay And Graceful

Talk about a passionate pull towards the same gender- it’s indeed nothing less than a storm on the high seas, challenging yet fulfilling to surf on. It could have taken a lot for gay individuals to come forward under the spotlight today; their journey has never halted, but flowed steadily towards growth with the changing times and awareness.

3. Lesbien, With A Sense Of Belonging

It takes extraordinary courage to acknowledge being on the same boat that prefers the company and coziness of your lovely lady friends. What entices them? Love without boundaries, affection like sisterhood, and warmth…a lot of it wrapped in a sensational storm of passion. Lesbian relationships are noteworthy for their solid support, understanding, and sharing.

4. Bi The Change, Bi The Waves

Do I love men, women, or both?* The answer to such pondering could hint the existence of bisexuals. They enjoy equal enthusiasm and attraction towards both sexual genders. So who’s to hold ‘em back from getting to know the best of BOTH worlds and embrace the fluidity they personify?

5. I Say Asexuality: A World Of Worth

Why rush to label it love in the conventional sense at all? Some folks exist harmoniously without sexual interest while being perfectly comfortable under a gray cloud of solitariness. Asexuals can still enjoy life like any other, although on a different plane- no sexual attraction, they would say, and mean the same thing. Their approach to life and self are undoubtedly unique in such a sexually crescendoed world!

6. Pansexuals; Unfazed And Completely Unmasked

Dividing the world any more than it already is a little too mainstream. With pansexuals, who you are as an individual, your character and vibrancy, your likes/dislikes could create more of an influence instead of your gender identity; it’s pretty bold, and we admit a tad confusing as they seem to defy boundaries, but hey, sexually liberated for all the right reasons. And, that’s impressive!

7. Trans and So Much More

Imagine waking one day to realize, physically you’re built more like a man than what you feel inside—mind-boggling at best. Trans- identified individuals have a very nuanced journey of rewiring their physical beings that mirror their mental orientation as the opposite sex better and it’s about daring to question ‘Who am I sexually today?’ and finding unique shades of self thereof.

8. Kinks Aplenty: S B D M

The B is what stands for ‘Bondage’, D - the ‘Dominant’. You get the essence with ‘Sadomasochism’. Yes, one’s sexual bucket of experiences could be sprinkled with these B D S M kinks wherein one derives sensational pleasure from giving pain- and receiving it—candles, blindfold, whips - yes, it’s indeed an intriguing playground of pleasure with consensual pain playing pivotal roles in your intimate life.

9. Fetishes That Accentuate Sexual Euphoria

Fetish has many faces - like having a thing for stocking, leather, shiny surface, or even sensing an attraction towards ‘golden showers’; sometimes, it’s also about a specific area – like feet or smell fetishes. Fascination, obsession? Both, perhaps, depending from person to person—if it’s bringing color to your intimate horizon while being safe and with agreed consent, then kinks away!

10. Let’s Talk Kith and Kin

Incest would probably be the furthest from your or the general public’s go-to sexual behavior lists, but it makes number 10 spot considering its existence. We leave this topic with heavy underlining on – WHEN CONSENSUAL AND LEGALLY PERMISSABLE, it’s no more than a person claiming their right to identify self, however unusual their shade of sexual preference maybe be.

Your preferences could be anything beneath or beyond the sun for someone who’s got some guts to self-explore and proclaim- “This is the unique shade of the sky that colors my desire canvass!” Every kind of sexual identity stands respectfully valid in understanding self and the essence one echoes when they proffer, “Hey world, this is me exploring and embracing— what am I sexually?”

This journey through “what am I sexually?” has not culminated but invited us to an undecided, unbored expanse of sex! We’ve realized not all that glitters is gold, the answer isn’t an off-the-shelf product but evokes an ongoing exploration towards enlightenment… Sexuality, and this exploration, is all colors, all dimensions – only you can paint! We are here to give our unconditional colors as we continue to identify #WhatAmISexually.

Frequently Asked Questions

H3: What is sexual orientation?

Sexual orientation refers to an individual’s enduring pattern of emotional, romantic, and/or sexual attractions toward others, generally categorized as attraction to those of the same gender (homosexual), a different gender (heterosexual), or multiple genders (bisexual, pansexual). It can also include the absence of sexual attraction, known as asexuality.

H3: How do I know my sexual orientation?

Determining your sexual orientation can be a complex and personal journey. It involves recognizing your emotional, romantic, and/or sexual attractions towards others. Some people may identify their sexual orientation early in life, while others may take more time to explore and understand their feelings. It’s essential to remember that it’s okay not to label yourself and to allow yourself the time and space to understand your own experiences.

H3: Can my sexual orientation change over time?

Yes, sexual orientation can change over time for some individuals. It’s not uncommon for people to identify as one orientation and later realize that another orientation better represents their experiences. This shift in orientation may be due to increased self-awareness, evolving societal attitudes, or personal growth.
