It’s estimated that bisexuals make up the largest part of the LGBTQ community, with the Williams Institute and Human Rights Campaign putting that number at around 50%.
Despite this, bisexual people are often erased both from outside and within the LGBTQ community. Often we’re called ‘greedy’ or ‘confused’ or even faced with outlandish claims that we’re more likely to cheat or have an STI.
So, on Bisexual Visibility Day, we’d like to confront some of the myths surrounding the ‘B’ within our community. Arguably, this one has some truth; bisexuals are very confused over how people fail to understand our sexuality.
We just like more than one gender identity in the same way that people like more than one type of food, or just one TV show.
