Promosexual 

A person who promotes their own, or their own view, on gender or sexual orientation for the purpose of political or social favor and gain.

pomosexual

Pomosexuals live life a step beyond the superficial labeling humans define their sexuality by. One does not necessarily "know" another merely because they are both straight, lesbians or bi; pomosexuals take this into account, and disregard the orientation label altogether for better unification.

It should be noted that pomosexuality itself is not a defined sexuality. On "the list" of orientations to choose from, it is the equivalent of selecting "N/A."
"I'll start the day doing homework, eat lunch at In-N-Out Burger and finish the day at work. Confused about which sexuality I belong? Ah, it is great to be a pomosexual."

pomosexuality

Pomosexuality refers to a nonorientation in which people disregard sexual labels altogether. In the world of pomosexuality, the superficial orientation identifications (a.k.a. gay, straight, etc.) are insignificant and not what people should accord to.

Stems from postmodern sexuality.
"Gay/Straight Alliances were the first step toward unification, but they weren't enough. What if neither gays nor straights existed, and were all simply called people? With pomosexuality, there is less reason for division in the world."
