Emotional connection without sexual attraction is called a friendship, you fucking morons. It enrages me to see this blatantly homophobic and sexist drivel being spread because it pressures lesbian women to say and believe that they are bisexual, when they are not. This is exactly what happened to me when I was younger. And it is harmful for both lesbian and bisexual women. Meanwhile, equally clueless people in academia completely neglect to mention this phenomenon of lesbian women being pressured to self-identify as bisexual, and instead like to claim bullshit like "wOmEn aRe nAtUrAlLy bIsExUaL!1!" (edit: looking at you, Michael Bailey)

Yup I totally agree. I honestly think the whole stuff with biromantic, aromantic, homoromantic crap should be a thing exclusively used by asexuals. Using it outside of asexual community should be called a misuse and a mean of confusing people, who try to get more comfortable with being fully gay or bi.
