If everyone were chill about it then I wouldn't have a problem. But I see many, m a n y examples here (this thread is one such example) of LGs being angry at bisexuals for calling themselves gay. And they have every right to feel that way because that undermines the true reality of their sexual orientation.

However the reverse is also true. Yet people act like bisexuals don't have a right to be upset at the reverse because people are too busy playing the oppression Olympics.

LGs want bisexuals to be out and own bisexuality so these things don't happen as often. I agree. But they need to pull their weight too and stop calling us straight people asking for attention when we come out, stop using 'well bisexuals mainly end up het paired long term' like it's this huge gotcha when it's literally statistics and a numbers game, and grant us the same courtesy of not calling themselves bi if they want us to stop calling ourselves gay.

People thinking you can only be homo or het is a symptom of monosexuals not understanding bisexuality, and consequently pretending it doesn't exist because that's easier for them. That's not our problem.
