When you tap \u201cOrientation\u201d you\u2019ll be able to select up to three terms that you feel best describe your sexual orientation. From there, it\u2019s totally up to you whether these are displayed on your profile or not.<\/p>\n<p>If you\u2019re new here \u2014 welcome! We\u2019ve updated the onboarding experience to include sexual orientation from the start.
