    I leave it blank, and would do so even if I were straight. FB is not a dating site so it's really nobody's business.

    I put interested in men, but I doubt anyone noticed. Most of the time, people leave it blank anyway.

    I put I'm interested in men and women. I don't know who checks that section of my FB but it's there.

    I wish there were more options though, or a way in which you can specify your sexuality more personally.

    Half of the shit on my Facebook profile isn't even filled in. It's not a dating site so I really don't see the relevance of putting something down.

    I have homophobic family members added on my facebook that I am in the closet to. So I never filled it out. My gender is filled out, though, but in a way that's kinda sneaky? I switched my pronouns on there to they/them, and I put my gender as ":3c". It was a joke (since I use that emote a lot), and also doesn't explicitly call me male or female, so if I am ever asked about it by someone I'm in the closet to I could just say "it's a joke", or "It's just funny" or something.

    Oh, and for my friends who were saying "I wish you could put interested in both" you can! I just checked a second ago and you can check both the men and women boxes.

    I don't really go on Facebook anymore but I doubt that I put anything for it.

    That was a massive part of my coming out actually. I came out to most via text (friends) or typed out letter (parents), if I didn't feel up to coming out face to face. I also changed my interested in to "women" (Only to change it to "men and women"; "men" and then hiding it completely.) I recently unhid it, and it's set to "men and women". I also made it public, so anyone who stumbles across my profile, can see that I swing both ways. Whoop-whoop! (!)

    I have to set to men and women, not that I think most people even see that part of the profile. If anyone did, they either already knew or never mentioned it.

    I'm only out to my family and on Facebook my friends are "only" friends. So I'll keep it as it is. However, it would be interesting to look how many of my friends would even react to this...

    Well... I'm not doing it. Everyone who wants to know could ask me ^^

    Most of my gay friends, unless they're openly gay, are just blank for this question. I had mine blank for years and as I was starting coming out I changed it to men to give everyone a hint :stuck_out_tongue_closed_eyes:

    I'm not on Facebook because I believe it is obviously evil. Or because I'm antisocial,take your pick.

    If I was it would either be on men and women or not be filled out at all because although I really don't mind people knowing it's really nobodies business.

    I did that when I was younger but not anymore. I'm not really out to many people anyways so i'd be lying. Although I'm pretty annoyed that fb acknowledges more genders but only lets you be interested in men and women.
