I'm bisexual, and I have no idea what they are on about. Also "biphobia" is just homophobia, because usually the stuff directed towards bisexuals are homophobic remarks.

Some of it. But gay men and lesbians aren't the same as bisexuals and vice versa. There'll be things that are different. Just like there's the "lesbophobia" term. Nothing wrong with having specific terms.

Okay fair enough. Yes, bisexuals aren't homosexual or heterosexual, even if one prefers the same or opposite sex they aren't either b/c homosexuality is exclusively attracted to the same sex and vice versa for heterosexuals.
