mte. summer seems to bring out the messiest stuff out of ppl.

its going to be interesting to see what this summer is going to be like.

I feel like people, at least here in nyc, are going to be wild and not in a fun way.

I am decidedly not ready for summer/fall events in nyc this year. People are gonna be wild.

hopefully this post isn't too messy but i feel her so hard. i'm just exhausted at constantly trying to defend my bi identity, although tbh, when i had a girlfriend, i still had to defend myself too.

[ferelden]

I’m so sorry bb. I’m so sorry you’ve had to defend your identity like that.

I’ll never forget the day my friend went on a date and she called me less than an hour later crying because her date left because she was bi and her date said “you don’t know where your loyalties lie.” I was about to come find her date and give em a good slap.

People who talk about it like we're choosing a sports team to root and not describing inherent attraction... Ugh

[ferelden]

I’m so sorry. It breaks my heart. I’m straight but the amount of bi people on tiktok who make videos about this makes me cry. 💗

Good for her

[goldie3]

Idk why people feel the need to counter a person's view on their own identity. She will probably know her sexuality better than anyone else

[ishumy]

Sigh. I get it, it's annoying to have people forgetting you're not straight or assuming you're straight, but I don't think bi women with men as their SO lamenting not being "enough" is doing anything... Being "straight-passing" is a luxury in society, at the end of the day, no matter how much it sucks when seeing it from the inside.

[pikapika217]

that's not what she's saying tho??

[ohmylol]

mte, i mean, bi women are bi regardless of who they date but being seen as straight is a privilege, wether someone likes it or not, it is what it is.

[veggie]

it kind of sucks because on one level it is a privilege, but on another there's an intrinsic part of yourself that is constantly being erased or dismissed, that you are forced to repeatedly explain and justify and remind people of. like we (bi people who are perceived to be straight) are safer from homophobia but also forced to assert our identity SO MUCH
