my complex identity
I am gray ace/bisexual and panromantic. when people ask me what my sexuality is I say either bi or ace because its to much to explain and straight people won't ever understand my identity. I only tell my full identity to LGBT people. I'm also ftm trans.

I can relate to this. My identity is also quite a handfull. I'm Asexual, Aromantic and Agender.
But more specifically under the AroAce umbrella I'm Autochorrissexual, Autochorrisromantic and Cupiosexual. (Also fictosexual and fictoromantic. But those terms are harly even recognized, so I don't even bother.)
I usually never tell people more than the three big ones for simplicity sake. It's hard enough being taken seriously as it is.
And even then I only come out to certain people as certain things.
To most people in real life I'm just Asexual.
To people online I usually come out as either Agender or AroAce, but usually not both at the same time. It depends on what I need to clarify in the situation.
However, around other lgbtq+ people online I'm all out right away. Like hi tripple A here, nice to meet you.
Around other Aspecs I even feel safe enough to come out as my micro-labels. I can't remember ever meeting another Aspec person that invalidated me for them.
I totally respect you and your identities. And you're definitely not alone in having identities that need a bit more explaining.
I get you. You're valid 💜💜
@Stoffel thanks for taking time to validate and reply so I don't feel so alone. I also appreciate you telling me your full identity. I recognize all those as valid as well⚧🏳️🌈
