Why is it a problem? It’s totally boring and dull. I don’t care who anybody else finds sexy. However there is nothing wrong with being attracted by intelligence any more than size of boobs... whatever floats your boat.

When people don’t feel left out for being different and when they have proved they are more ‘individual’ than anyone else. We’ve a long way to go yet. I might identify as a tree today but a dustbin tomorrow. Some ‘celebs’ really are fickle idiots. When they are not in the press enough in a positive way they are probably sobbing in a room somehere.

It's like Sam Smith wanting to be referred to as 'they'. It's not an issue for me, I have no interest in meeting Sam Smith. As for Mark Ronson, I'm not intelligent, so he won't fancy me.

I am femsapiosexual and I would guess most of us are 1) attracted to who we identify to be attractive but 2) fall in love with the person rather than their looks.
I mean would any of use fall for an attractive but Rovers supporting partner? :oops: :oops:

I’m not sure why, but identifying as a tree made me chuckle :lol:

What tree? I considered Horse-chestnut but wouldn’t fancy people launching sticks and footballs at me for a few months a year just to pinch my conkers

He won't be hooked up with either of the women (is that word allowed) off the Chase despite his desire for intelligence. He would have been better off saying he is attracted to publicity first.

A sapiosexual male is a man who would rather go to bed with Malcom Muggeridge than with Cara Delavigne. Are there really a lot of them about?

But as above, it's harmless. I shall await an update on pronouns for Mr Ronson and be sure to make a note.

If I bumped into Sam Smith I would say Oy I'm happy to call you and your lot them and they but if he then said call me yours I'd say Oy Sam you can sing a little bit and sold a few records to mindless teenagers but if you think you can win me across to saying those , they , them and they're with a few harmonies you better think again son!

And if he was to correct me and say I'm neutral don't call me son , I'd say Noooo I'm not having this 2020 rubbish if you want to bat for the other team your either us or them so your them to me and us to them compriende!

He’s basically saying he’s bisexual and will use whether they have brains or not as a way to choose between em.

File as attention seeking and have done with it.

You're wrong. Science has quite a good understanding of how gender dysphoria occurs during foetal development. Just because YOU don't know that, or just don't accept that, doesn't mean it's not true.

None of this however, has anything to do with gender.
We are discussing somebody's sexuality.
If you insist on being the most woke person on the message board, at least get your facts right
