I'm sure some of these bi-identifying women are just trying to fit in, but for others, they really do feel bi. It makes sense that LGBT identification would increase as society became more accepting of it. From the perspective of radical feminism, I'm not seeing how this is a bad thing.

Bisexuality is increasing, not homosexuality. From my own experiences, most bi people are women who are open to their boyfriend's threesomes and so deep in the objectification of women that they've developed a sort of sexual attraction to it from the POV of the male gaze, and men who are so pornsick that they don't even have a sexuality aimed at a certain sex but rather at whatever form of exploitation and fetish is currently trending in porn. I don't see a trace of the kind of middle finger to gender that I used to see among gay people and even a lot if not most of gay men now are trying desperately to fit into the misogynistic af masculine subculture and get the patriarchal respect of their "bros".

Now, what sex people get down and dirty with wouldn't be a problem per se, it's more telling of how bi people have come to dominate LGBT discussions with their privileged ideas, turn discrimination from a concrete thing into vapid nonsense like "People don't believe me when I tell them my sexuality!", adapt homosexual relations to their obnoxious af heteronormativity and demand to be seen as equally victimised and disadvantaged as same-sex couples because they jack it off to gay porn or have a weird fetish. And ofc, worst of all, bi people are the ones pushing the "gender is all in the soul <3" horseshit onto everyone else.
