Is not labeling your sexuality a form of internalized homophobia?

I'm bi and i used to tell everyone that when they ask my sexuality and they always show support for that. But now i just tell them I love whoever I want when someone asks again because telling them I'm bi doesn't feel right for me anymore. Ik i love both boys and girls but idk why I cant tell people im bisexual. Am I the only one who doesn't like labeling my sexuality or is it because im just homophobic to myself

    Im like that too, but mainly because I dont think we really need to label as anything, we love who we love and we are queer, dont feel pressured to fit into any label just be yourself :))

    Ditto! Labels aren't everything. Keep loving who you like. At the end it's not really just about a person'slooks that attracts u, it's also personality, vibes and just the overall pull. So skip labels and just like whoever <3

    No. Labels are merely labels. Sexuality is a matter of spectrum, anyway. You shouldn't fit yourself on labels. Labels should fit you. That's why not labeling your sexuality is not internalized homophobia.
