00:00When you said, I'm queer, people were interpreting that as you're open to all genders of attraction, including men.
00:09And I think they thought that, oh, maybe, and correct me if you think I'm wrong,
00:13but I think they thought you saying, I'm queer, could open up this attraction that you might have to Chris.
00:18Like, oh, now I can...
00:21Okay, welcome to being bisexual.
00:23Welcome to being pansexual.
00:25Welcome to being queer.
00:26Welcome to, like, that is where, that's where it's so funny to me that the world ran with that.
00:34Because, like, I don't want to say one thing and then change my mind one day and have the world do exactly what they're doing right now.
00:43You know what I mean?
00:44I think, I think that's why I realized queer is such a beautiful term because it doesn't, you know, it doesn't say one thing.
00:52Being queer means you are in the LGBTQIA community.
00:54Being, if you're a woman and you are bisexual, but you're with a man, you're not straight all of a sudden.
01:00You're bisexual.
01:01If you're queer and you're with a man, all of a sudden you're not straight, you're queer.
01:06But you're, you know what I mean?
01:07And so, that's where it's like, it's just people.
01:11People, I think, scratch at the surface for absolutely anything they can.
01:15And that's, that's where it's like, it's not worth it for me to get upset over something like that.
01:20But it goes back to that original conversation of what frustrates me.
01:23And it's people lying.
01:25We're looking for things.
01:26And it's like, if for this thing, for this thing, you know what I mean?
01:30Like, that's, I see what people are reaching for.
01:34But like, guys, come on, your arms are not that long.
01:37Like, damn it.
01:39But in that way, do you understand how people were thinking, if she's a lesbian, she's just attracted to other women.
01:46And then queer, does that mean that you could one day be attracted to a man?
01:50Or is that not even something that you've...
01:52Welcome to being 21.
01:55Welcome being queer.
01:57It had nothing to do with that.
01:59I will say, like, that has nothing to do with that.
02:02And, but I've changed a lot since I was 14 in the last seven years.
02:08And I'm sure I'm going to change a lot until I'm 28.
02:11You know what I mean?
02:11But I have been in beautiful relationships with women who I love and adore very much.
02:19I've been in a beautiful relationship with somebody who's non-binary.
02:22I've been in a beautiful relationship with men, throwback to my original days.
02:26Like, and that's where, I don't know.
02:28I think, I think people are...
02:30It's funny because there's a side of the internet right now that is saying,
02:35y'all are being too hard on JoJo.
02:37Can it for a second.
02:38And I'm, I'm not the type of person to give myself sympathy or care.
02:42But I see those people and I literally take a sigh of relief.
02:45And I'm like, thank you.
02:47Because I think that, I think some people are looking a little too deep into things.
02:52And I think people just want anything.
02:55And I mean, it's fine.
02:56They're going to do what they do.
02:57And so that's just kind of why I let them.
02:58Um, but I think like everyone, I guess, I guess this is where the conversation stemmed
03:04from.
03:05And with Danny, I, I, I didn't want to feel like I had to give an answer because I don't
03:09have an answer.
03:10And so I don't want to feel like I have to give one.
03:12And that's kind of where Danny brought the conversation of like, you don't have to have
03:15an answer.
03:16That's why sexuality is fluid.
03:17That's why gender identity is fluid.
03:18It's, you don't have to, you can be one thing today.
03:22You can be one thing in two years.
03:24You can be one thing in 10 years.
03:26You can be one thing yesterday.
03:27You know what I mean?
03:27And you can, you can, you're going to grow and you're going to change and people are going
03:32to come in and out of your life.
03:33You're going to realize things about yourself and you're going to have all these realizations.
03:36And I think that that's where the beautiful term queer comes into play.
03:42Sure.
03:42But I think you see that there are people out there who don't understand pansexuality.
03:47They don't understand bisexuality.
03:48They don't understand queerness.
03:50People also don't understand that I have been pansexual.
03:52When I came out, I was like, I'm not a lesbian.
03:54I'm pansexual.
03:56And that lasted for a year.
03:58And then I was like, I think I'm a lesbian.
04:00And then I was like, I think I'm gay.
04:01And then I was like, I think I'm a lesbian.
04:03And then I'm like, those are the same thing, babe.
04:05And then I'm like, I think I'm pansexual again.
04:06Oh, I think I'm a lesbian again.
04:08Oh, I think I'm queer.
04:09It's welcome.
04:11Well, we are 21.
04:12Yeah.
04:13She's figuring it out.
04:15Slowly but surely.
04:17I want to talk about your relationship with Chris.
04:19Do you understand why people are so curious about it?
04:22Of course.
04:23I will say, look, I now, now being on the outside of the house, I am the number one
04:28children, Chris, Stan.
04:29Like, I see all the edits and I'm like, I want to see more dancing.
04:33I want to see more what's happening.
04:34Like, I am the scroller on TikTok now.
04:37And so I definitely think it's fun.
04:40And I understand why, like, the people are enjoying it.
04:45And I think, I don't know, I think what's so special about Chris and I is our bond is
04:50so genuine that neither of us care what people make of it because we know our genuine friendship
04:57and we know our bond.
04:58And I think it's so special that we both just kind of have, well, okay, let me go back a
05:05little bit.
05:05We in the house had to deal with people saying we weren't genuine.
05:08And that was interesting because they were saying that for a different reason than the public,
05:15right?
05:16And so I think we kind of got into our heads, like, are you genuine?
05:21Am I genuine?
05:22And we both realized we're both incredibly genuine, you know what I mean?
05:25And so then when we got out of that house, it carried through.
05:29And it's carried through to this day.
05:31And we still speak all the time, obviously, naturally.
05:34Um, but it's, it's nice to not feel like we have to explain it or defend it to anybody
05:41almost because we had to for a day or so in the house in our own sort of way.
05:45And so now to be out of the house, it just, we just exist and it is what it is.
05:49And we're happy and we have each other.
05:52And it's, it's a, it's a great little special friendship that we have.
05:55Um, but it's, I mean, yeah, it's, it's hilarious to see, see the world.
05:59And I, like, I, I, I literally, I send him videos of us dancing all the time.
06:06I'm like, look at this angle.
06:07This one's good.
