As I'm sure you're aware, bisexuals face a lot of problems just like homosexuals do. And I've decided to go through some problems that bisexual women face everyday.
1. Oh I went through that phase in college, I totally understand you.
It's not a phase, honey. This is who I am. Bisexuality isn't always about making out with a girl to impress a guy in college, it's a real sexuality.
2. You can't have both, just pick one.
Well, I'm pretty sure if I could, I would. But look at it this way. I really like chocolate ice cream, and I really like vanilla ice cream equally as much. Why pick one when you can like both?
3. That doesn't exist.
It really does, actually. If you were in my shoes, you'd know.
4. So you date, like, everybody?
Um, no? Sure, my dating pool is larger than yours, but I also have standards like you, and preferences. So I don't like everyone, and I most certainly don't date everyone.
5. Are you sure?
I bet when you were my age, you were sure. (This is more targeted towards teenagers.)
6. You're just saying that for attention.
If I wanted attention, I'd tell everyone that I hadn't slept for seven days. Not that I'm bisexual. For some people, it's real.
7. So if you were with a man, you'd be straight?
No? My partner's gender has nothing to do with my sexuality. How does that make any sense?
8. So if you were with a woman, you'd be gay?
Once again, no, I'm still attracted to men, my commitment and dedication just so happens to be with a woman.
9. You're bisexual? That's greedy.
How? I am able to be attracted to both genders, that does not necessarily mean I want both genders at the same time.
10. Do you wanna join me and my partner?
I really dislike how society has turned a sexual orientation into a term used for intimate actions. No. I don't want to join you and your partner in bed.
11. If you're dating one gender, how do you satisfy your attraction to the other?
When I say I'm bisexual, it means I'm okay with dating either. Just because I have committed myself to one individual, that doesn't mean I've committed my attraction to that gender.
