Pansexuality

I feel as if Pansexuality should be listed as a sexual orientation rather than under related terms -- many pansexuals view their identity as its' own distinct orientation and numerous LGBT groups list it as such. NekomancerJaidyn (talk) 22:24, 19 June 2021 (UTC)

It's about the difference between sexual identity and sexual orientation. Non-academic sources sometimes conflate the terms, as people may in common speech, but they are not the same. As the pansexuality article makes clear, many sources consider it to be under the bisexual umbrella. Crossroads 00:32, 20 June 2021 (UTC)

Fictosexuality and Nijikon

I have reverted edits that add Fictosexuality and Nijikon to the template.(diff) This is clearly overgranular, and Nijikon is not widely accepted as a sexual orientation, but I would also like to question whether Fictosexuality is even a genuine subject at all. If anybody wants to take a look and see what they think, please do. --DanielRigal (talk) 13:18, 4 June 2023 (UTC)

Semi-protected edit request on 26 May 2024

It is requested that an edit be made to the semi-protected template at Template:Sexual orientation.
(edit · history · last · links · transclusion count · protection log)

This template must be followed by a complete and specific description of the request, that is, specify what text should be removed and a verbatim copy of the text that should replace it. "Please change X" is not acceptable and will be rejected; the request must be of the form "please change X to Y".

The edit may be made by any autoconfirmed user. Remember to change the |answered=no parameter to "yes" when the request has been accepted, rejected or on hold awaiting user input. This is so that inactive or completed requests don't needlessly fill up the edit requests category. You may also wish to use the {{ESp}} template in the response. To request that a page be protected or unprotected, make a protection request.

In the Research section, can someone add Transgender sexuality? Or another appropriate section. It would be useful to be together with Human male sexuality and Human female sexuality but I guess they would be alphabetically separated, though not that bad. Soares2000 (talk) 20:17, 26 May 2024 (UTC)

 Done Although I have concerns someone may object to this change. ABG (Talk/Report any mistakes here) 02:29, 30 May 2024 (UTC)
