10 Questions To Never Ask A Bisexual
Maya Lopez

As someone who is bisexual, I get asked a lot of (really dumb) questions. Never ask any of these to a bisexual. It could end badly.

1. Have you ever had a threesome?

No. Just because I like two different genders, doesn't mean I'm willing to go to bed with both at once. Not to throw shade at people who do, but it is completely wrong to just assume that because I'm bi I'm always down for a threesome.

2. Which gender do you like better?

Honestly, any gender that isn't you right now. I don't have a preference, I like who I like, just like you do.

3. Why don't you just date the opposite gender so you can be normal since you can choose?

No, you can't choose who you like or love, and it's offensive that you'd consider straight people "normal". Nothing is normal. You aren't normal. Stop being homophobic.

4. Aren't you just trying to hide the fact that you're just really, really gay?

No, I'm not. I'm not gay. I'm not straight. I'm fricking bisexual, it's a thing, and you're pissing me off by not recognizing my sexuality as a reality.

5. Wait, so does that mean you're hitting on me?

Whenever you talk to the opposite gender, are you always hitting on them? Just because I like both girls and boys doesn't mean that whenever I talk to one or the other that I'm automatically hitting on them. I'm just being a friendly, kind human being who you could learn from. Get over yourself.

6. Don't you think you're a little bit greedy, snatching up all the hot people and leaving none for the rest of us?

Oh yeah, I'm so greedy. I have a secret storage unit filled with gloriously hot people whom I keep prisoner. Really dude? PEOPLE ARE NOT PROPERTY. Maybe that's why you're single.

7. Why can't you just make a decision between the two already?

My decision is to stop talking to you so I can calm down long enough not to punch you in the eyeball, because clearly it's broken and can't see what's right in front of it. I'M BISEXUAL. It's not a fricking choice. Did you make a decision to like the gender you like? I didn't think so.

8. Why do you get to have all the fun?

Yes, it is definitely fun. In no way does it involve sitting on the couch alone drinking tea and wishing you could date every single flipping movie star on television.

9. But I thought bisexuality didn't exist?

Hi. Standing right here. Now you know, bisexuality exists and needs to be recognized.

10. Don't you have a lot of sex?

Totally, because I'm attracted to everything that moves and I can't help but sleep around. No. Don't judge my character on my sexuality, they are two completely different things. Open a book some time. It helps.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
