==Sexual identity==
Taormino says about her sexuality, "I don't really identify with the label 'bisexual', nor does it feel like it accurately describes me...I see myself as queer, since queer to me is not just about who I love or lust, but it's about my culture, my community, and my politics. The truth is, even if I were with a heterosexual guy, I'd be a queer dyke."<ref>{{cite web | title = PuckerUp Exclusive: Tristan talks about her identity | url = http://www.puckerup.com/360/894 | website = puckerup.com | publisher = PuckerUp | deadurl = yes | archiveurl = https://web.archive.org/web/20100723031740/http://www.puckerup.com/360/894 | archivedate = July 23, 2010 | df = mdy-all }}</ref><ref>{{cite web | title = Tristan Taormino, Sex Educator | url = http://www.gothamist.com/2004/08/19/tristan_taormino_sex_educator.php | website = gothamist.com | publisher = Gothamist | date = August 19, 2004 | access-date = October 30, 2010 | deadurl = yes | archiveurl = https://web.archive.org/web/20100522123654/http://gothamist.com/2004/08/19/tristan_taormino_sex_educator.php | archivedate = May 22, 2010 | df = mdy-all }}</ref> In addition, "she describes herself as 'equal opportunity'.

In addition to being a vocal advocate of [[non-monogamy]], Taormino supports gay marriage: "I support gay marriage being legalised in every state. I do however think it’s unfortunate that in some cases gay marriage opponents have used the issue against [[polyamory]]."<ref>{{cite web | title = 'Sex is the easy part!' – Interview with Tristan Taormino, open relationships expert | url = http://www.lesbilicious.co.uk/books-art/tristan-taormino/ | website = lesbilicious.co.uk | publisher = Lesbilicious | date = July 10, 2008 | access-date = October 30, 2010 }}</ref>
