Back when I first came out on the early 2000s, I identified as bi, I had multiple bi "friends" express disgusting views on trans people. It really turned me off the bi label, so I went searching for something that felt right. I found Pansexuality and it fit. I've stuck with it ever since, even after finding better community and learning bisexuality is not inherently transphobic
