Andy told me to introduce myself

What do you mean by latent? I'm not that old. I thought that meant that you just start liking guys later in life (isn't that the definition of fluidity.

The definition of the word latent is that it is something that is always there but is laying dormant but can develop at any point. Some people their sexuality emerges from latency as they go into puberty, some people earlier, a lot of others later, it isn't something that is dictated by age.

Fluid sexuality to me implies that there is an element of choice, where as latent sexuality implies that it is beyond our control.

I don't believe there is a choice unless there is an external factor like religion that forces one to supress their sexuality.

Maybe we have different perspectives on the meaning of the word, maybe latent and fluid mean the same thing, or imply the same thing, but to me they have entirely different meanings.

But you use what ever definition that you feel fits what you know of yourself
