There is nothing wrong with being bisexual. It is not the same thing as being a lesbian. These people are tiring, just say you're ashamed of being bisexual but wanna be part of the "kweer community".

Also, Lesbos is the island that "Lesbos" (Sappho) came from, Sappho was the female poet who wrote about same-sex attraction (not sure if she was lesbian because she also wrote poems about men)

Both Sappho and Billitis would be considered bisexual by modern standards.

I think sappho was just a sarcastic, bitchy lesbian. Historians mistook her for bisexual by taking everything she said literally. When asked if she had a husband, i think her response was: "yeah, and his name is dick mcdick johnson weiner the 3rd" and historians took that at face value.
