I've been checking out the more specialized, bi male subs (r/BiBros, r/BisexualMen) and the discussions there seem to be of noticeably higher quality with far less TQ stuff. Have you tried the female equivalents? The main LGBTQ+ subs are bound to be very colonized. There's also relatively little engagement there when you consider the current number of readers, which is now at 1800 for r/bisexual. Not too common can you find the good and relevant posts anymore.

Damn, that post was depressing, but does explain biphobia so well. He has no one to talk to about this except the bisexual community.

Also, I don't think it's very....not sure what the word is---I think it's kinda crappy that he would consider breaking up with his girlfriend because of his parents homophobia. The GF didn't do anything wrong...but if he's not that into her, then I supposed there's nothing wrong with that.

I wouldn't just date a woman to prove a point that "I'm not straight", it's silly.

Good post though. I'll have to check out r/BiBros and r/BisexualMen. I occasionally lurk reddit to see what crazy or interesting content they may have. I have a feeling the female equivalent will either be privated, banned, or invaded by TQ+. :-/ I'll have to keep on the lookout for it.

Yep, that's what I thought as well. I was like, Damn the Torpedoes! Full speed ahead!. It shouldn't matter even if the family aggressively gifts them a house or two(oh noes) just for being a straight couple. Or whether gays think he's betraying them somehow by being bi(he can still be a good role model anyway). He should continue being her boyfriend if there's something there. Too bad that at the time of this post, the future was uncertain because the unwanted attention was actually starting to damage their relationship.

I usually go to niche subs which have nothing to do with TQ. Also, I probably should've realized that there's a much higher chance that female-specific subs would be colonized. That definitely applies to Lesbian subs compared to Gay male subs.
