"My wife insists on telling men she is bisexual"
The answer is good, but god the biphobia in that question.
I feel really bad for this woman. She married someone who doesn't accept a fundamental part of her.
Going out with someone doesn't change our sexual orientation. We stay bisexual.
And we can go out with someone, be monogamous, and STILL be proud of being bisexual.
Being bisexual = being bisexual
Being bisexual =/= being automatically available for a relationship (sexual or romantic)
Being bisexual =/= wanting to have sex and/or have a relationship with several people at once (there's nothing wrong with that to be clear when everyone involved is up to it, but it has NOTHING to do with sexual orientation)
Being bisexual = being bisexual
I'm bisexual.
I'm proud of being bisexual (if you couldn't tell lol).
I'm in a relationship.
I'm monogamous because it suits me and it suits my partner.
I'm not saying "I'm AVAILABLE" when I say I'm bisexual. I'm just saying I am bisexual.
When we're saying "Biphobia is a thing that exists, and it exists in queer spaces" we're talking about shit like this question.
I am glad it got the answer it did. I'm really glad. I shouldn't be glad for something as basic as "The woman who answers relationship questions is not biphobic" because it should be so basic, but I am SO glad she's not.
