I'm tired of figuring out what's gay or straight. I just wanna fuck in peace.

I am a dwarf and I'm digging a hole...
This seems to be the attitude of most I encounter nowadays. I think every friend I have who I've asked about their sexuality tend to reply "I dunno, I just like what I like."
It seems the labels are slowly starting to lose their use, which to me is a good thing. It means we're getting to the point where we don't need it to feel normal anymore because it's just normal by default. We're not quite there yet, but it shows we're moving in the right direction.
Not that people can't use labels if it makes them more comfortable, I'm just glad more people are starting not to need them because they're already accepted.
I've noticed this too both in those around me and myself (mid 20s). I don't identify as queer and have always been "straight", but more recently the thought of sucking a trans girl's dick is kinda hot? I'm not attracted to guys at all, so it would have to be someone who is otherwise extremely feminine, but eh?
I don't know what to call it and I honestly don't really care to think about or try to label it because it's a worthless distinction. It helps that most of my friends are queer so I've had any and all stereotypes/expectations surrounding attraction completely shattered, and I've found this to be true of more people I meet over time who don't identify with queer culture at all. I'll be interested to see how this continues to change in the next 20 years.
