Bi to be Popular

[Queen Raidne]

So this one girl recently accused me of faking being bi just so I could be more popular.

Tell me this isn't a thing.

Please.

LMFAO, I've wondered sometimes, to be honest--I really have D:

This has been a thing since before you even took your first meandering baby steps into the internet.

You've wondered if I was bi, or...?

>"I'm bi, hehe"
>kisses a girl
>all the boys talk about it

Yeah, sorry. People are dumb.

I imagine it's hard to get an accurate reading on these things, as people will lie their bums off until the end of days in order to fit in.

This actually reminds of an AskReddit thread about the flamboyant homosexual male voice.

Someone said something like "Half the people say they can control it if they want to, the other half say it's natural." Well, I bet the other half has plenty of liars on their side. If you're doing an out-of-the-ordinary voice in order to fit in, you probably wouldn't fess up to it when asked about it. Or rather, certain types of people wouldn't.

My point? People are fake.

I dunno, my school's super homophobic and I know there's like a secret group of lesbians BUT I CAN'T FIND THEM.

But basically anyone I know to be bi or gay doesn't really talk about it much. Anyone I know who's kissed a girl for attention doesn't claim to be bi.

It's not much a secret if you can find them easy.

I can't find them easy, that's the problem.

I'll break silence to say that this is an unfair accusation that gets slung at bisexual people all the time, and it's bullshit. Gay people, Straight, Bi whatever, you shouldn't have to answer to other people's standards. You like what you like, end of discussion as far as they're concerned.

Sexuality is complicated enough without other people's shit and expectations of how to act a certain way if you are <insert here>.

Yes, it's a thing. No, I'm straight. I just don't think that someone else's genitalia is my problem unless we're having relations/a relationship, in which case I become somewhat interested for health reasons.

I thought the thread title was "Bi to be Polar" at first.

I hate it, people don't even understand that they're homophobic.
"I'm not scared of gay people, I just don't like them."

UGH.

Homophobia would implay you're afraid of gay people. I think the word is "Homohateful."

I hope you're joking.

[idlehands]

Some people get jealous when another is different and gets attention from it. I'm guessing it's some catty girls that are accusing you of this?

And yes there are some chicks that will make out together at a party just to titillate the guys there and be the center of attention. It's silly and pathetic and can affect the legitimacy of being bisexual in the eyes of other idiots.

When I was visiting collage with my friend, I told a guy that I was bi, and he responded with “Oh, so you haven’t picked a side yet.”

IT’S NOT A MATTER OF DECIDING I LIKE BOTH THAT’S THE POINT.

[Smiral]

Never heard the term "One foot out of the closet"?

While I acknowledge that bisexuality is totally a legitimate thing that exists, I'd say a good 50% of people my age claim to be bisexual for two reasons:

1. Sounds better than admitting to be gay (remember, this is Texas)
2. "DO YOU THINK I'M HOT NOW"

I don't think you're qualified to decide if someone other than yourself is legitimately bisexual.
