    The idea that bi people do not exist. That we are either straight women who are adventurous or gay guys who are in the closet, at least thats how it most commonly occurs. Some people seemingly cannot fathom that there are us who find examples of people across the gender spectrum attractive.

    i’m even more bewildered that they take this to think you’re gay

    I was bewildered the first time I experienced this but now its actually more common for me that people think I am just closeted as opposed to taking what I am saying as my legitimate experience.

    but what do people think the “B” is there for???

    Many people both in and out of the LGBTQ+ community genuinely ignore the literal third letter

    like every ancient society that western euros jerk off to was some form of binormative for men, what in the actual fuck are they thinking?

    Isnt that the truth oh my god

    “You’re probably just confused”

    I HATE this one. Im not confused, I know I find sexy women hot and sexy men hot. No confusion there.

    “Oh, you mean you want to fuck everybody?” In there too

    Honestly, as dumb as this is I think this is less wrong than saying I am gay lmao

    the majority of people are attracted to the opposite sex, and then some are attracted to the same sex, so it’s not at all weird or surprising or counterintuitive that others get one of the attractions without losing the other one.

    You would think right? I don't know why that concept is so mindblowing

    An LGBT person who can’t accept someone being bi or transbian or any other mix of sexuality or gender identity is just abandoning solidaristic struggle for a crab barrel approach.

    Real

    I can at least understand a straight cis person not getting it because they’re never really pushed to reflect on it by society. If you’re already queer in some way what’s the cognitive issue with believing people can be attracted to more than one gender and in different ways?

    You nailed it, its totally baffling to me. How can you yourself be queer and just not understand it? Is it really that difficult to imagine I am attracted to people regardless of gender? To me it seems like the most simple thing in the world, "I like what I like."
