I love you.

In the past I refrained from telling you this because I felt that you had a different idea about what love is, and that you would think that I loved you in that way. I want to tell you that I love you, and I want to explain the type of…

Lovely.

The hardest part of being out and bisexual isn’t what you’d expect. Yes, I’ve experienced icy glares and unpleasant comments when out with female partners, and I know that being perceived as a lesbian in public could be dangerous. While I’ve thankfully been spared any personal experience, I’m acutely aware that hate crimes do happen. And bisexuals experience just as much homophobia as gays and lesbians when in same-sex relationships, and when publicly affiliated with LBGT events and organizations. Functionally, we’re no different when we’re involved in the gay community.

…

This problem comes up very frequently. LG folks say we’re confused, pretending, or even just hanging on to passing privilege; straight folks are just glad we’re not too gay, or think that we can still be fixed.

The thing is, speaking as part of the bisexual community, I am fine. There’s nothing wrong with being bisexual, nor is it an invalid part of who I am. Bisexual people deserve just as much visibility as other GSM’s.

We’re in the name LGBT, but we are sadly underrepresented in a lot of areas. In my experience, when I figured out that I was bisexual, I was scared that no one else was. When I met my first queer friends, we were surprised to find out that there were now two bisexuals in the same circle.

That’s the thing; bisexuality is still pretty invisible, and people mistreat it when it is up in their faces.

• “Oh it’s just a trend.”
• “You’ll grow out of that phase.”
• “Bisexuals are sexy.”

Damn right we can be sexy, but we refuse to be turned into objects for your entertainment. Personally, I acknowledge that sexuality is fluid, but if someone identifies as bisexual, you have to respect that person as you would anyone else.

That’s all I’m really asking for because this part of me is not invalid; it’s just as different as anyone else’s parts.

People usually assume I am in an open relationship.

Violent, flesh eating pervert? Hmmmm… lol

Actually I think the unicorn is a pretty good symbol for we bisexuals in that we’re thought to be myths, and the whole attitude of “omfg, you’re bi *finger cross* back! Back into the closet you horrible person” we sometimes encounter in the queer community.

Unicorn here!

Word!
