skarmazenuk: belligerentbi: skarmazenuk: mesmes99: verilybitchie: The fixation on trying to find a way to use the word “two” in the definition of bisexual is misguided, especially as the bi activists who paved the way for the community were never fixated on the “two” prefix. It’s also time to stop fixating on the idea that “regardless” means “I don’t see gender” and realise that it’s just a way of saying “gender doesn’t stop me being attracted to them”. J: Are we ever going to be able to define what bisexuality is?S: Never completely. That’s just it – the variety of lifestyles that we see between us defies definition. Boston Bisexual Women’s Network Newsletter, January 1984 I am bisexual because I am drawn to particular people regardless of gender. It doesn’t make me wishy-washy, confused, untrustworthy, or more sexually liberated. It makes me a bisexual. ”The Bisexual Community: Are We Visible Yet?”, The 1987 March On Washington for Lesbian and Gay Rights, 1987 The bisexual community should be a place where lines are erased. Bisexuality dismisses, disproves, and defies dichotomies. It connotes a loss of rigidity and absolutes. It is an inclusive term. Martin-Damon, K., “Essay for the Inclusion of Transsexuals”. Bisexual Politics. New York: Harrington Park Press. 1995 I just want to add my two cents for all it’s worth nothing: Blank-sexual is in relation to ones self. Homo=same. Hetero=different. Bi means same and different. NOT male/female. At the time those articles were published, even the Gay Community only believed there were two genders; it’s been a mainstream belief that’s only started really changing in the last decade, or so. There are still to this day gays and lesbians who are transphobic “Bisexual” was meant to be “Those attracted to either male or female genders.” “PANsexual” is the word that means “Does not differentiate between genders in their attraction to others.” See, the problem with people like you is even though you’re a dumb cunt you don’t realize it. All the fucking bi people quoted here straight up aren’t saying bi = male and female, and bi people have been writing about being attracted to everyone/regardless of genders/being attracted to gender minorities/bi not being binary and there not being a binary for decades in our writing and literature. But because you, some uneducated dumb fucking cunt, thinks whatever dumb cunt definition of bi YOU have is right you won’t listen to anything any of us have said. Even though you’re reading a whole bunch of bi people’s thoughts before reblogging your dumb cunt brain can’t rub 2 fucking brain cells together (I assume because you don’t have two) you don’t take in the information and go right on with your stupid, wrong, biphobic shitspewing ways. Like the dumb cunt you are. Like go use those ‘former music journalist’ skills to seek out information from and by bisexuals. Go read The Bisexual Manifesto or find old Everything That Moves zines. GO reread the ones on the very post you reblogged to give your uneducated fucking opinion. So now you’re gaytekeeping me, you fucking bitch? First of all, I’ve been Queer all my life; and I’ve seen all kinds of Biphobia against a lot of people I know; the mother of my Children is BISEXUAL, and for the twenty years and more that I’ve known her, and I have done NOTHING BUT EVER LISTEN TO HER when she described her sexuality to me, in order to understand her better, and the struggles of the Bi community in the case of Biphobia and Bi erasure, and the kind of bullshit THE FUCKING QUEER COMMUNITY ITSELF PUTS THEM THROUGH. , but no, some arrogant Rainbow-flavored Karen comes along and thinks (and I use that term generously) because I don’t fit their definition of “Queer” and they know nothing of my fucking background like the ignorant fucking knee-jerk buzz-cut boot-stomping reactionary they are just begins a fucking sanctimonious diatribe, judging me without knowing sweet fuck all and using the word “cunt” more often than a drunken Scotsman falling down a long flight of stairs. So fuck you, bitch; you don’t know shit about me, and if you think I’m a cunt, well good; that means I’m four things you’ll never be: Beautiful, warm, loving, and fuckable. Queer all your life, huh cishet man married to a bisexual?Real interesting you claim you’re ‘queer all your life’ here to me but that you are a cishet who needed to be educated by your wife to other people? Is it because you know your uneducated ass has no legs to stand on?Anyway you being queer or not ain’t got shit to do with you being a biphobic cunt, so many queer people are biphobic cunts who refuse to listen to bi people.But I guess all us bisexuals have to be the exact same as your bitch of a wife.I mean.“Kate Millett concluded her December, 1974 talk by lauding ‘the very wealth and humanity of bisexuality itself: for to exclude from one’s love any entire group of human beings because of class, age, or race or religion, or sex, is surely to be poorer - deeply and systematically poorer.”quote from “The Bisexual Movement’s Beginnings in the 70s“, Bisexual Politics, referring to 1974Must be wrong, not what your dumb bitch wife says.“I am bisexual because I am drawn to particular people regardless of gender. It doesn’t make me wishy-washy, confused, untrustworthy, or more sexually liberated. It makes me a bisexual.””The Bisexual Community: Are We Visible Yet?”, The 1987 March On Washington for Lesbian and Gay Rights, 1987Must be wrong, not what your dumb bitch wife says.“Bisexual usually also implies that relations with gender minorities are possible.”Bisexuality: a Reader and Sourcebook, Thomas Geller, 1990“Bisexuals fall in love with a person, not a gender”A bisexual’s survey response in Closer to Home: Bisexuality and Feminism, Weise, 1992Both must be wrong, not what your dumb bitch whife says.Later, cishet man, I hope you grow some reading skills, since apparently your journalistic endeavors didn’t endow you with any. -- source link
