Word of the Day

Heteroflexible

/ˌhet-er-oh-flek-suh-buhl/ • adjective, sometimes noun


01.

Primarily heterosexual, but open to same-sex attraction or same-sex experiences in some situations.

02.

A label some people use when heterosexuality feels like their main identity, but not an absolute one.

I learned a new word today while reading HuffPost. The article is about the rise of the label heteroflexible, what people mean when they use it, and why some people embrace it while others are critical of how closely it stays tied to heterosexual identity.
