So.. This means noone can say for sure if it is gayer to like bears or twinks.
We just know both are gayer than straight people.
Not really true? I'm not entirely certain the Kinsey scale is advanced enough to quantify this, but I think liking slim femme twinks is closer to straight than liking big husky bears.
But on the other hand, if a femboy twink is attracted to femboy twinks, wouldn't he be more gay than a femboy twink attracted to bears? Because the former is attracted to people more similar to himself?
It's not about similarity, the Kinsey scale just measures your level of attraction to people of the same or opposite sex.
This starts getting more into "what parts of the opposite sex are you attracted to, and how is the other person presenting themself." Femboys present femme, so a femboy liking other femboys might be attracted to their feminine characteristics. If that's the case, they're likely to score closer to strictly heterosexual than a femboy who is attracted to the masc characteristics of a bear. On the other hand, maybe the femboy just really likes the idea of getting railed by another femboy. Then, they might even be more strictly homosexual than the femboy who's attracted to bears, but refuses to be the receptive partner to them and always tops.
I'm gonna need 3Blue1Brown to explain this to me...
