  • You see a similar dynamic occasionally when some insecure binary trans folks are talking with enbies. It's totally understandable to shift how you identity as you gain a better understanding of yourself, but it's absolute bullshit to project that onto another person.


  • Most queer folx I know are hella supportive of bi people, but it's definitely an issue with some older queers.

    I think it's leftover stigma from the false perception that bi people are able to "more easily" retreat into the closet. That's total bullshit since a lot of people accross the queer community did that during Reagan's AIDS genocide trying to survive.

    either way, it pisses me the fuck off. queer folks who gatekeep other people will be compassionately re-educated after the revolution.

    quickest way I've found to figure out another queer person's brain worms is to mention I'm a bisexual lesbian.

    To which their honest reply was “We don’t know how to write women”. No actual misogyny, though. Just no important female characters

    lmao honestly I respect that. Ideally they’d, you know, learn how to do that, but at least they didn’t bullshit.




  • Ultimately I don’t view a self-reported Pew survey as being particularly meaningful data. Maybe I’m wrong on that, but I’ve read too many bullshit pop science articles to trust them.

    it makes me very suspicious about men over 65 being 8% less single than women that age

    men die a lot younger, makes sense that women would start outliving their partners after the mid-60’s.

    There are definitely some sleazy old guys out there as well, though.
