I guess you’re some flavor of bisexual as you are attracted to some men (based on the femboy remark) though you’ve got a distinct preference for femininity even in men. If you go scrolling through old Tumblr posts long enough you’ll probably find a term someone coined back in 2013 for your exact orientation… But, like, IDK man don’t overthink it. If anyone asks just say whatever feels right in that moment, straight/bi/pan/whatever.
And remember saying you identify with a particular orientation isn’t some huge commitment. Saying you’re bi (for instance) doesn’t mean you’re attracted to all men, and no reasonable person would expect that. We all have preferences within our orientation.
AITA?
No. You’re figuring it out. It’s okay to not have all the answers

Especially in mixed company, my go-to is “sexual.” Those who don’t know will hear a non-answer to a rude question but your friends will recognize it as candor.
It also sidesteps the tiresome bi/pan distinction.

Right, I’m not atheist but not do I believe in the “god” of abrahamic religions, or the pantheons of others, nor that Buddha literally reincarnated; But I do believe there is some force or meaning behind existence. So I’m just “spiritual.” Sometimes a general label can work

Agreed, though to be clear, by this analogy I meant belief in all gods.
As long as, you know, they’re hot. In the scriptural sense of course.
