I felt 100% left out in the 90's and 2000's and in comparison, this is slightly better, but now I feel left out in my own community, LOL. I had to leave /r/bisexuals because it was filled with "bi colors" posts, people brainstorming bi-culture ideas like lemon bars, cuffed jeans, and sitting stupidly in chairs, and then there were the "I am so GAY!" posts, and people would throw literal tantrums if you said "But... You are bi?" because "OMG GAY is an umbrella term and everyone is allowed to be gay, Susan!"

/r/truebisexuals was slowly flourishing, people were even doing "bisexual culture" posts (like posting about actual bisexual people from history, NOT lemon bars) but banmageddon ruined it. My only problem with that sub was, there were a handful of users there, maybe 3, especially one particular user (this person wasn't in dropthet, so I'm not shadily calling anyone here out, I promise) trying to start shit with the /r/truelesbians sub and it's like........ STOOOOOOOOOOOPPPPPPPPPPPP holy fuck, just STAHP! You know? Let them complain about bi girls, they need a space where they can complain, just leave them alone and stop spying on them. I don't want crying about biphobia and lesbians to be a part of bi culture.

I think bisexuals need to write books and make movies and create content and just organically create a bisexual culture. For example, Eleanor from The Good Place, she is so casually bi, and such a great character, and there are more and more good bi characters on these shows. It's not like the 90's where all the bi's were sexy murderous evil villains, or creepy oversexed women who have predatory personalities that don't exist in real life that were written by men with erections at 3 in the morning.

I think step 1 has to be to crawl out of L and G ass, step out of the S shadow, and just do our own thing. There are more Bi's than L and G combined. We are our own biggest roadblock because we keep trying to fit in with them instead of doing our own thing.

You're beautiful <3 I 100% agree with you on everything. This part in particular:

I had to leave /r/bisexuals because it was filled with "bi colors" posts, people brainstorming bi-culture ideas like lemon bars, cuffed jeans, and sitting stupidly in chairs, and then there were the "I am so GAY!" posts, and people would throw literal tantrums if you said "But... You are bi?" because "OMG GAY is an umbrella term and everyone is allowed to be gay, Susan!"

I was banned (temporarily) from s/ lesbians for criticizing this kind of shit LOL. Because this kind of stupid shit also happens in lesbian (and also gay men) community. "Oh look at me, I'm so gay, look, I dress so gay, I act so gay, I sit so gay". I hate these kind of stupid shit in the LGB(tq+) community.

Thank you for being understanding about lesbian spaces.

Some bisexuals are as bad as trans people with screeching of supposed biphobia.

The r/bisexual is as bad as /traaaa for delusion and echo chamber.

You are appropriating bi culture! How very dare you??

Lol don't even get me started on the "You guys... I don't like lemon bars or sitting stupidly in chairs or do finger guns... Am I really bi?" posts. And some of the people who posted this shit were 20-something ADULTS not clueless teens!

I don't know if I should laugh or cry at that lol.

I never understood the "bi culture" that r/bisexuals was trying to create. It seems very...rAnDoM.

I'm not pleased that the bis claimed lemon bars when lemon is slang for lesbian in some circles.

Maybe your tastebuds are bi? :)

Reminds me of the black-people-like-fried-chicken/grape-soda stereotype, which-- as soon as I learned of it-- instantly prompted the thought, "Well, who DOESN'T?"

So I guess we're all bi black people then! (pass the fried chicken, grape soda, & lemon bars, pleez YUM)
