10 Things Your Bisexual Friend Is Tired Of Hearing

Lindsay Messina

Are you sure you aren’t just fully gay?

Giphy

Yes, I'm sure. Contrary to popular belief, you don't have to pick just one type to be attracted to. Sexuality is a spectrum, and there are no rules at all.

That’s hot.

Giphy

My sexuality is not your fantasy. Period.

Just pick one!

Giphy

That's not how sexuality works. You can't choose who you want to be attracted to, it just happens.

You’re just doing it for attention.

Giphy

Nope! I'm out and proud because I want to be. I'm will always authentically be myself and if you don't enjoy that then stop paying attention to me. There is no reason for me to hide a part of myself for others.

How do you know you like the same sex if you’ve only been with people of the opposite sex?

Giphy

Sexuality doesn't mean you have to have sex with someone to know if you like them. You can be attracted to anyone you want!

So you’re only half gay?

Giphy

That's actually not how that works at all. We're apart of the LGBTQIA+, community just like everyone else.

Do you want to have a threesome?

Giphy

AGAIN, my sexuality is not your fantasy. Just because I like girls does not mean I want to have sex with everyone.

You’re so lucky, I hate men!

Giphy

That probably has something to do with your shitty choices in relationships, not your sexuality, but okay.

Are boys or girls a better kisser?

Giphy

It doesn't depend on the gender, it depends on the person.

But don’t you have a boyfriend?

Giphy

Being bisexual doesn't mean I am not fully committed to my relationship. Just because I also like the same sex does not mean I will not take my heterosexual relationship seriously.

7 Ways to Make Your Language More Transgender and Nonbinary Inclusive

With more people becoming aware of transgender and non-binary people, there have been a lot of questions circulating online and elsewhere about how to be more inclusive. Language is very important in making a space safer for trans and non-binary individuals. With language, there is an established and built-in measure of whether a place could be safe or unsafe. If the wrong language is used, the place is unsafe and shows a lack of education on trans and non-binary issues. With the right language and education, there can be more safe spaces for trans and non-binary people to exist without feeling the need to hide their identities or feel threatened for merely existing.

Making the world safer through language.
