Why are bisexuals their own group in the LGBT?

Mattie G Indahouse · January 21, 2015, 07:16:17 AM

If you're a guy that also likes guys you're still going to fall under the G for gay. If you're a girl that also likes girls you're still going to fall under the L for lesbian. I don't see how liking both sexes deserves it's own group for the movement. Liking both sexes still isn't going to put you on a higher level than someone that is gay or a lesbian in areas where they are put down.

I don't know. It's soy of covered by the other 3.

It is. Transgenders are their own group due to them referring to themselves as whatever gender they want to be. The guys are covered by the G and the girls are covered by the L. Having Bi's being their own group is pointless when they are covered from one of the two sexual oriented groups.

I meant to put sort of. I hate autocorrect.

Because we're the pinnacle of sexual evolution and deserve to be separated.

Well because they're bisexual.

But I seriously haven't seen anybody really go after bisexual people so I don't know why they're in the #struggle group in the first place.

Well, I've been pretty open about my bisexuality. A co-worker of mine cornered me in the break room once and told me "Bisexuality isn't even a real thing you moron. You either like girls or you're a faggot. Make up your mind!"

And now she doesn't have a job : ^)

I don't think you understand bisexuality.

Once you suck a dick, you're gay.

It's funny because Frank Underwood is bisexual.

Mad Max · January 21, 2015, 10:23:32 AM

Because being bi is different than being gay, lesbian, or trans.

Duhdoy.

It literally has nothing to do with the plot. Like, I was annoyed they even put it in.

It does much better than LGBT.

I fucking hate the phrase LGBT, it's so fucking clunky and expositional.

I think I speak for all bisexuals when I say we'd be happy to just be dropped from the movement.

Or we could start a schism, break off with the lesbians and transfolk, and be called the BLT movement, and adopt the BLT as our official food therefore ruining the sandwich for hardcore conservatives in the ultimate ruse against Christianity and small diners.

I can't believe you're being so fucking horribly intolerant. You really are a piece of shit, I used to like you too. I just don't get how you can stand against the fundamental principle of tolerance in our liberal societies?

I mean, what the fuck have small diners ever done to you?

He might just see it the way I used to.

Instead of Bisexuality (the preference of both genders), they might see it as flip-flopping between straight and gay.

Completely true. Don't forget that the eggs are nearly always overcooked.

...Because gay implies they're only attracted to their own sex. Bisexual means they're attracted to both sexes.

They should include atheists in that acronym as well since it's as much an orientation as transgender is.

Sexual agnosticism (n) - the view that the truth values of certain sexual tendencies – especially claims such as whether or not dicks, boobs or dickboobs are the best – are unknown and perhaps unknowable.
