would it be considered """comphet""" if i feel sexually attracted to men but would never ever actually want to be involved with one irl for a bunch of reasons? like never at all. meanwhile i don't really desire women sexually but i'm only ever emotionally invested in them, don't want the ones i like to be dating men and would want to live with them but again i don't feel actual sexual attraction towards them. though i do feel jealous/possessive etc if someone shows romantic interest in them
i don't mean this in a snarky way but what part of this do you think is the result of comphet? and do you mean ""comphet"" how twitter talks about it or compulsory heterosexuality? 😂 i don't think it fits either one but the triple quotes made me unsure. but no, your personal orientation is not really compulsory heterosexuality. i think friend jealousy can be a normal thing that doesn't mean anything about orientation either. so what would be compulsory heterosexuality would be any barriers that prevent you from choosing to live in community with women, things that make it materially more beneficial for you to focus your time and feelings around a man you dgaf about (even if you're attracted to them) rather than with women you do care about (even if you're not attracted to them).
