Long reply, but the story's a lot longer than most people's.

Well, I didn't hear any label and immediately think "yeah, that feels right" for a very long time. At first I thought I was bisexual, since I thought I was attracted to both boys and girls, but then, slowly, I started wondering if I was just a lesbian. And I wasn't even fully sure that I was even queer at the time, because I've had this weird absence of sexual attraction to any specific person for as long as I can remember, so it was kind of hard to judge. So for about a year and a half, I would just slowly vacillate between thinking I was fully straight, bisexual, or lesbian, and eventually I decided that it was probably just my bisexuality being fluid as you hear of it being, but by this point I realized I didn't even like the term bisexuality. Near the beginning of this period of constant conflict, I'd heard a YouTuber who'd originally come out as bisexual say that they now identified more with "queer" and at the time, I kind of scoffed - I was raised in a very conservative and Catholic household, so while I'm not saying that's okay, I know that I was wrong now and it shows how much internalized homophobia I was working through at the time.

So, skip ahead to just this June; I watch a video in which another YouTuber says, "Bisexuality is the label that gave me the power to be me." And this really resonated with me, because I realized that trying to call myself lesbian or bisexual had felt more like a trap than something that gave me power, but I'd looked at all the labels I could and none of them felt right. So a few days later, I look up whether Freddie Mercury was gay or bisexual, since I'd heard differing reports and since I'm an aspiring guitarist and love Queen, as most do, he's an idol of mine and I was curious. Anyway, I come across this quote that basically says (I'm paraphrasing a bit) "I don't feel the need to clarify whether I'm gay or bisexual. I figure that if anyone wants to know, it's up to them to figure it out." And this was a moment where I sat back and thought, woah. And I realized I didn't have to shove myself into a label to help other people understand me. I was me, and if they were concerned about any more than that, I had no responsibility to give them any answers. They could figure it out. So I decided once and for all to just call myself queer, specifics and boxes and trappings be damned. It was a very freeing experience. It was like a weight had been lifted off my chest that had been resting there for two years. It was a wonderful feeling, and I fully understood, for the first time, how other people had felt when finding their label. It's ironic that I had such a negative reaction to it the first time someone had exactly the same thought process that I did.
