anyway ur biphobia doesnt have to be blatant and loud for you to be a biphobe! you shouldnt think we dont notice when basically only bisexuals rb posts about biphobia + when we're the only ones to ever acknowledge biphobia within lgbt spaces. because we definitely do, whether we talk about it or not

it's not really a secret that no one else wants to talk about or acknowledge biphobia bc they either dont see it as a problem, or dont care that it is a problem bc it doesn't have an impact on them. and that's biphobia, plain and simple, even if you're not outwardly telling everyone you hate bi people

‘Do not assume that bisexuality is binary or duogamous in nature […] In fact, do not assume there are only two genders.’

-The Bisexual Manifesto, 1990

for all you dumbasses trying to insist that bisexuality doesn’t include attraction to nonbinary people, or that pan is a necessary label to express attraction to nonbinary people

Disclaimer, I’m not bi but have had a lot of discussions with bi people about biphobia and this is some stuff that other people who aren’t bi need to Really Learn. This is especially intended for non-mspec queer people.

  • Bi people aren’t “half gay, half straight”
  • Bi people aren’t Gay Lite™
  • Bi people aren’t “basically straight,” even if their relationship is “straight passing”
  • Straight passing privilege is not a thing because erasure isn’t actually a privilege
  • Biphobia is still a huge issue
  • Gay and lesbian people can perpetuate biphobia and bisexual oppression
  • Bi people are not “lesser” members of the LGBT+ community
  • Bi people can speak on homophobia on the same level as lesbian and gay people
  • Lesbian and gay people are not authorities on biphobia
  • A bisexual person is always bisexual, regardless of who they’re with or whether they’re with anyone at all
  • Bi people always belong in LGBT+ spaces
  • People who aren’t bi should work to support the bisexual community and end biphobia. Yes, gay people, this includes you.
  • Bi people aren’t predatory
  • Being bisexual is not a privilege
  • “Bihet” is not a thing
  • Refusing to accept biphobia from gay people isn’t homophobic
  • Bisexuality isn’t inherently transphobic or exorsexist
  • Bi people aren’t “traitors” to the gay community
  • Bi WLW are valid, bi MLM are valid, and bi nonbinary people are valid
  • Bi women dating men are still bisexual, bi men dating women are still bisexual
  • Bi people are not inherently promiscuous (but there’s nothing wrong with promiscuity)
  • Biphobia is not less real or less valid than homophobia or lesbophobia
  • Bi people have as much of a right to LGBT+ resources, spaces, funds, etc as lesbians and gay people
  • Bi people aren’t “dirty” or untrustworthy
  • Biphobia is a necessary separation from homophobia and bi people face issues that are unique to them
  • Bi people are allowed to reclaim the word “queer,” and bi MLM are allowed to reclaim the f-slur
  • Bi people aren’t “dangerous” to gay people or lesbians
  • Bi people are allowed to be angry at the way they get treated by others in the community
  • Bi people are the utmost experts on bisexuality and biphobia

And last, but certainly not least,

  • Bi people are wonderful human beings and valuable members of the LGBT+ community

And if you’re trying to think up a situation to “disprove” any of these points, don’t bother. You’re boring. Biphobia is boring and you should feel bad.

As a bi person… YES THANK YOU
