Just Some Guy: What the hell, Yahoo? →
pskribe:
I just made a new Yahoo account and I was filling out my profile information. I finished, hit Save, and was told I had infringed upon the terms of use and my information couldn’t be saved (the only explanation given was simply the word “spam”). Then I removed the word “bisexual” and it saved properly.
At first I thought it was just because it contained the word “sex”, which would...

lifeisbeautifuljustlikeyou:
Being bi is so hard. I don’t fit in either community. I’m too gay for the heterosexual community. And too straight for the LGBTQ community.
I don’t fit here anywhere
You fit in the bi community! <3

holybat:
I love it when monosexual people invalidate any non monosexual orientation because people like that are “confused”. Same for non sexual folks.
I know what I like, and what I’m attracted to, and just because it happens to be more than just one thing it doesn’t mean I’m fucking confused, thank you very much. Same for the people who don’t like anything sexually. But apparently everyone...

bisexualftw: I used to hate (internally) on what I perceived as “fake” bisexuality. I wonder what I thought bisexuality actually looked like (other than myself). I can’t remember at all. I always wonder now, did everyone think I was a “fake bisexual”? Did I laugh to much? Flirt to much? Maybe I wore the wrong clothes? How come no one ever talks about people in the bars as...

Things I'm Expected To Do for Straight People in... →
bidyke:
This list goes in the right direction, but it doesn’t quite sit with me. Here’s my take (emphasized):
sanctimonioussilentagony:
Answer questions about how I fuck, how I manage my relationships and how I live my life.
Nod and smile when they tell me that some day I might change.
Be “tolerant” of all their dipshit opinons, including but not limited to: acceptance of pedophilia,...

Notes From A Unicorn - The Rumpus.net →
There was one other mythical bi man in the entire city, but try as I might, I never found him. At the gay bar, I sometimes got called a “half-breeder.” Straight people treated me just as shittily as they treat gay people. Three times, gay men hit me in the back of the head when they saw my head turn for a women. For the most part, straight women wouldn’t date me because, as one said, “You’re...

grimgrinninggirl:
The monologues were beautifully read, there was healthy discussion about all sorts of things from coming out to pronoun use, and now I have a lovely new manual of resources to peruse. :)
The only hitch was when a person from outside campus was brought into the group - something I totally don’t object to, normally. When xe (the pronoun they requested to be called) was very...

ariaasacura:
JUST BECAUSE SOMEONE HAS NEVER BEEN IN A SAME-SEX RELATIONSHIP DOES NOT MEAN THAT THEY ARE NOT BISEXUAL.
This also applies to those who have ONLY been in same-sex relationships.
Get this right people!
Bisexuality is the SEXUAL ATTRACTION to both sexes! people who ♥ people of Same Gender as themselves + ♥ people of Different Genders/Gender Presentations from themselves
This does...

comingoutjournal:
From HuffPost Gay Voices:
Jane Lynch wants to make one thing quite clear: she is no Mitt Romney fan.
The 51-year-old “Glee” star told Politico that she wasn’t impressed after having a run-in with the Republican presidential candidate at an event leading up to the NASCAR Daytona 500 auto race over the weekend.
“It was like small talk, but he didn’t really hear a word I...

Girl Panic: Ianto's Sexuality →
girl-panic:
I know I shouldn’t get annoyed by other people’s ignorance about Ianto’s sexuality, but I kind of can’t help it. He is one of the only bisexual characters that I’ve ever seen portrayed on screen in such a honest, realistic manner, and he means a whole hell of a fucking lot to me. When people dismiss his bisexuality, they dismiss me.
Also, when they portray him as some simpering fool...

factsaboutqueers:
Due to some messages we got about bi-erasure, we have deleted the post ‘FACT: Bisexuals only exist in porn. If they attempt to step outside of a porn set they will be vaporized, much like a vampire in the sun’
We invite people to make fun of common stereotypes, including those about pansexual and bisexual people being sex fiends, or simply not existing. But many...

Woman: Can I have birth control?
Government: No.
Woman: I got pregnant because I didn't have birth control and I don't want the fetus. Can I have an abortion?
Government: No.
Woman: I gave birth to my child but since I wasn't expecting it, I can't afford daycare. Can I have help paying for it?
Government: No.
Woman: Well, why can't I have birth control?
Government: Because. Sex isn't for recreation.
Woman: It can help regulate my period and benefit me in other ways.
Government: Too bad.
Man: For no reason other than for recreational sex, may I have birth control?
Government: Do you have a penis?
Man: YES, YES I DO!!
Government: WELL HOWDY, VALID CITIZEN. You can buy condoms by the dozens. Here, here's a pack of special condom for "His Pleasure." Oooh, these come in different colours and flavours. Here, try these. They have ribs on them. And this one glows in the dark!! LOL OMG DICK LIGHTSABER!!
Government: But seriously, you're a man. You can do what ever you want.
Woman: But-
Government: Shut up, you sinning, freeloading hussy.

hello-i-am-not-a-pumpkin:
AND IT’S NOT THAT I’M TRYING TO DEFINE YOU FOR YOU, BUT IT’S NOT THAT HARD TO UNDERSTAND THAT BI MEANS TWO SORT OF LIKE DI MEANS TWO AND PAN MEANS ALL SORT OF LIKE OMNI MEANS ALL
THEY ARE PREFIXES THAT REFER TO A SPECIFIC NUMBER THAT IS HOW THE WORDS BISEXUAL AND PANSEXUAL WERE DERIVED
SO NO YOU CAN’T BE BISEXUAL AND PANSEXUAL
THAT IS NOT HOW NUMBERS WORK

i don’t see how people can say that Bisexuals are ‘confused’. If you like someone, you like someone. It’s really not that hard to comprehend.

Sometimes I wonder if I'm going nuts
neurofancier:
Sometimes I wonder if I have a persecution complex. If I’m purposely looking for reasons to feel like a martyr for being bi. Sometimes I tell myself, ‘it can’t be that bad, no lgtb activist would think like that’. Sometimes I seriously worry about my sanity.
Then shit like this happens and.
Yeah.

amethystdahlia:
So I’ve been watching a kind-of-trashy-yet-ridiculously-addictive gameshow called Baggage lately (I even got my roomie and some of my friends into it, lol). Basically, it’s hosted by Jerry Springer, and there’s 4 contestants; one is searching for a date, and the other three are his or her potential dates. Each of the three potential dates has 3 suitcases, containing small,...

I wanted to join a team so I wouldn’t have to answer any more questions, so I wouldn’t have to say that I preferred one or the other or whether I exist or if I’m a unicorn or how I can ever hope to be monogamous if I’m attracted to more than one gender. But I failed to choose a side …

Bisexuality and Dating →
cloudofgorgeousness:
Something that occurred to me recently: I am never in a straight relationship, and I am never in a gay relationship, although my partners may be. I am always in a bisexual relationship, regardless of the gender of the person I’m dating.
Yes! Yes! Yes! One of the many reasons that the accusations sometimes leveled at bisexual people in different gender relationships of...
