I prefer using omnisexual but use bi when explaining to people outside the community

Yeah I'm basically sticking with bi because I went through so much crap for it in the 90s (from pretty much all sides).

I experience being attracted to others as bi attraction (not hetero/homosexual) and I only ever have bisexual sex. So maybe there's another word that means that and would be a better fit to others, Idk.

I don't mind including other labels as well, but even now, bi erasure is still a thing in my life, and stepping away from identifying as bi altogether would feel like more erasure.
