Do you think there should be different words for female and male bisexuals?

Basically the title. Bisexual women and men have different experiences, do you think that it's worth having different names for the two sexes or do you think it's fine as it is?

Only if they roll off the tongue and doesn't already mean something else.

Nah, seems unncessary. There aren't different words for male and female heterosexuals or asexuals either. Only the homosexuals found it necessary to make up different words for female homosexual and male homosexual.

That's fair. I don't really care about it myself, but an article posted on lgbdropthet got me thinking
