I think the absurd length of the LGTBQA acronym just demonstrates how wrong thinking our culture is about sexuality. I will celebrate the day we stop asking ourselves whether we're gay, straight, bisexual or other - and the only question we ever concern ourselves with is: am I attracted to this person or not?

I can see your point, but ... at the same time we're not there yet. It's crucial that people not feel alone. When man/woman couples are still the standard, it seems really important for people who feel differently to be able to name themselves and find others like themselves, so they know they're not alone ( ... )

Thank you for posting this. I had no idea Bisexuality had a Day, but why not? I've certainly heard how Bi people have been maligned and I have never understood why. After all, as Spock would say, "Infinite Diversity in Infinite Combinations". And while that may seem to be a trite Trekkie quote, I've always been very fond of it because the message behind it is so powerful. And the character revered that message.

Diversity is indeed strength. :) :)

I didn't know it had a day either. However I immediately went and put on a purple shirt. :)

... and today I saw a fun vid that showed Captain America making moon eyes sequentially at Peggy, Bucky, Sharon, and Sam, while the music sang BI BI BI at him. :D I am positive Steve is Bi, and the idea that tons of people agree makes me super happy. :D
