Ig thats where most of my confusion comes from, to me saying sth is a "spectrum" always evokes sth along the lines of gay <--------------------> straight (ie one dimensional) with things mapping into this interval. But ig if you also include more than one axis in your meaning of "spectrum" there wouldn't be as straight forward of an ordering for any given "spectrum". + Like @[email protected] said technically even the 1 dimensional spectrum can have more than one order and the "obvious" one is just obvious because we are used to it from another context not because its specifically relevant to this situation.

Gynophilia, androphilia, romantic attraction, sexual attraction etc. absolutely makes everything complicated yeah. And then there's cultural stuff and minor personal preferences. There's no real end to how many axis you could legitimately argue for including in a sexuality chart.
