I was on the old drop the T sub and left after a huge blow up with a bunch of lesbians about there being too many Bisexuals in charge and commenting on the sub.

Can you link this too?

I took a look at his post history and only saw two comments about marriage, and it wasn't the main topic. Maybe I should search for another keyword?

I don't agree with most of what he says, and he clearly has a lot of bitterness but I think it's important to realize where that bitterness comes from. Most of the true believers in gender ideology are bisexuals. Bisexuals (obligatory not all bis) cause a lot of harm to the LG community by identifying as "queer", "pan", "omni", "poly", or any of the other million descriptors, which muddy the meaning of sexual orientation, which is/are the sex(es) you are attracted to, not preferences such as personality/looks.

Bisexuals also call themselves gay and lesbian but say they would include trans people sexually. Yes, there are LG people lying and saying this, but there are bi people with a strong preference for whom this is true. Bi people outnumber gays and lesbians, yet we have no strong bi community. We have all these bi people lying about their sexuality and causing huge harm to LG, while yes, most bi people do end up with the opposite sex (no shade, it's really a numbers game here. Gays and lesbians are rare while straight people are not). So basically bi people end up causing all this damage while facing less of the repercussions. This isn't to say that bi people have never done anything for LG because that is false, but the whole TRA thing is really a bi problem, but I feel like bi people don't talk about it enough. I had a chat with him earlier and he was very civil and said he'd had experiences with a lot of the bis I described. However, I think he holds a lot of prejudice and totally flew off the rails there and I have no respect for that sort of behavior. It is still important to see where this anger is coming from, though.

Is there an archive somewhere of the old reddit sub? This would have been in 2019.

I'm not sure exactly what you're referring to, can you give a couple of examples?

I have to say, I don't think bisexuals have a unique amount of guilt in promoting gender theory. All members of the LGBT participated in creating it, allowing it to take over, and all have members who are still stubbornly promoting it for various reasons. The transmen of the 90s and pioneers of gender theory are all lesbians, bisexuals introduced the wishy washy "love isn't about genitals" ideology, and gay men gave them the gay press and leadership of gay rights groups.

I think bisexual women are constantly caught in a bind where we're on our own trying to guess our way through life and we get punished for guessing wrong. This gets interpreted as lying, imo. What are you supposed to do, anyway, when you have no good choices?

There isn't a way to be a virtuous bisexual.

Thanks for the links, I saved your comment for later.

I wasn't really around LGBDroptheT during the reddit era. Maybe a little towards the end, but anyways---it's nice to see these posts. I hope we can grow as big as them and TrueBisexuals.
