      It’s out of scope for this survey, but it would be interesting to see cis male responses to personal questions regarding gender, sexuality, self-worth related to gendered expectations, and a lot of other stuff. I think just asking the questions could be healthy for a lot of people, and then seeing the results could be healthy too, depending.

        I’d be down for that, would be interesting and healthy. Introspection helped me realize I am pan, not cishet like I thought I was for far too long shrug-outta-hecks

        Who knew cishet guys normally don’t fantasize about sex with men? Not this dumbass i-love-not-thinking

          Yeah, this is a great example! Part of the reason why I’d be interested in this is that I’m not sure anyone is 100% completely cishet. I suspect everyone is at least a little bit queer, even if they lean heavily towards certain cishet preferences, and I think that queerness (even if it’s just a sliver) is probably hiding underneath some heavy repression. I’d be curious to know if I’m onto something or if it’s just wishful thinking on my part.

            That pretty much describes my experience and thoughts exactly, was a bit excited to write “pan” instead of “het” on the questionaire until I saw it was mainly about gender, haha.

            Might just be me, but gender is the same way. I am 90% cis, like 75% het, though I don’t really consider myself genderqueer and thinking of myself as queer in general feels like stolen valor since I never acted on it, and is a recent realization so it doesn’t feel “natural” even if it was very explanatory for me.

            That’s why I support introspection, I certainly need more myself. This stuff is complicated and should be confronted more.

            i mean i think there are probably at least a few people like that (100% cishet), but you’re not wrong that most people calling themself cishet aren’t 100% cishet. for myself for example even though I think im somewhere on the aro/ace spectrum I wouldn’t ever really call myself queer
