I kind of wish they would just use “bisexual” if they are flexible enough to actually seek same sex partners, because it seems really confusing and unnecessary to keep breaking the label down into smaller and smaller categories. I think it IS pretty biphobic, tbh. “Mostly straight” and “mostly gay” are BI. I am not bi, but I can’t help but see this as people trying to avoid calling themselves what they are. If their attraction is strong enough to name a thing then bisexual is the thing, the degree of bisexual is personal and something you discuss with people you intend to be with.

Edit: what I am saying is that it is OKAY TO BE BISEXUAL. It’s okay to prefer one sex over the other.

Lol “mostly straight” is what I called myself internally during my long period of denial.
