It seems like, while labels are important for communication, they are just unable to capture all of the nuance when it comes to sexuality and gender.

    After all, that's how all labels work (and perhaps even words in general?). They try to capture meaning, at best failing to do so (endlessly "approaching" it, always a step behind the evolution of language), and at worst ensaring peoples' thoughts and ideas.
