Gay and Lesbian Monosexuals: “Rumors that this person had different gender attraction as well as same gender attraction were created to make them seem straight.”
Gay and Lesbian Monosexuals: “If you headcanon this character as bi instead of gay you’re forcing heterosexuality on them.”
Gay and Lesbian Monosexuals: (calls past mixed gender relationships of a bi person “straight relationships”)
Gay and Lesbian Monosexuals: “As much as we’d like to let bisexuals into our community, when the going gets tough they’ll probably align themselves with heteros to save their skins.”
Gay and Lesbian Monosexuals: “So you’re only half queer?”
Gay and Lesbian Monosexuals: (assumes all bi women date men and all bi men date women)
Gay and Lesbian Monosexuals: “Bisexuals will never know what it’s like to experience real bigotry the way we do.”
Gay and Lesbian Monosexuals: “I’d rather have a straight ally represent me than a bi person, at least good allies acknowledge their privilege.”
Gay and Lesbian Monosexuals: “You have a preference for different gender people? So you’re actually hetero then?”
Gay and Lesbian Monosexuals: (assumes all bi people date straight people)
Gay and Lesbian Monosexuals: “Why would you need ‘bi pride,’ gay pride already celebrates same gender attraction, isn’t that enough? Do you really need to celebrate your heterosexual side too?”
Gay and Lesbian Monosexuals: “You need to acknowlege your straight passing privilege.”
Gay and Lesbian Monosexuals: (bi person breaks up with them) “So it turns out they were hetero all along.”
Bi Person: …
Bi Person: “Sometimes Monosex-”
Gay and Lesbian Monosexuals: “Excuse me? Did you just lump US in with STRAIGHT PEOPLE? Do you realize how much it hurts to be put in the same category as your OPPRESSOR? Why are you obsessed with proving that you’re QUEERER THAN US? If you don’t issue us an APOLOGY and then NEVER use that word again it will prove that bi people are the most HOMOPHOBIC people in the world!”

Let’s take some time to learn about the asexual spectrum!
It’s Asexual Awareness Week! Always remember: sexuality is a spectrum and sexual and romantic orientations are different! You canlearn more about gender and sexuality here
!
the whole ‘aromantic asexual people are just straight people’ says a lot about people’s belief in ‘straight is the default’
hey guys so i know asexual awareness week is next week and as an asexual, that’s super important to me
but let’s not forget that aromantic awareness week is also next week, and that’s just as important as asexual awareness
please don’t forget about our aromantic friends! they deserve just as much love as the asexuals
Asexuality by Tiny Dinosaur :)!
sometimes out lgbtqia+ people forget how vital it is to preserve safe spaces where closeted people are welcome in their (deserved) frustration at 20 y/o straight dudes calling themselves allies for brownie points.
but the ‘s’ in ‘gsa’ is important—not for the straight people, not for the allies, but for every fourteen year old girl who asks her unsupportive parents for a ride to a meeting under the guise of “allyship”. we can’t get rid of the only chance at community some of the most vulnerable people in ours have.
i just want bisexuals to be safe and happy and maybe get a monthly kitten party
“appropriate the term gay”
u mean after being called “the gay community” for decades, we’re not allowed to self-describe as gay? hmmmmmmmmmmm
Of COURSE bisexuals are experimenting.
Why else would I have all these test tubes?
asexual representation is important
