Image description: A Twitter thread from @BlizzardAvis that reads,
[Tweet 1] "If your criticism of bi women is 'well sometimes they bring their homophobe boyfriends to gay bars' oh boy do I have news for you about *your* transphobic and racist same sex partner in gay bars."
[Tweet 2] "You don't care about the safety of queer people in gay bars, you are just bimisogynistic."
[Tweet 3] You know what! Let's add to this. Why is your first instinct to blame the bi woman, who is very obviously in an abusive relationship and suffers from his homophobia more than any of you combined? Why aren't you offering her help? An escape? Resources to help her leave her abuser?"

all in all though I'm very proud of bisexuals especially bi women for speaking out against biphobia and not allowing ourselves to be silenced these past several years, these spaces are obviously still pretty hostile sometimes but I think we've made a lot of progress and changed a lot of people's minds.
this is very true 100% and i wish more people would openly say they're bisexual instead of something else, but we need to examine the actual underlying reasons that this overwhelming denial exists instead of just demonizing these bi ppl for pretending otherwise.
straights, lesbians, gays, and pans all hate bis more than each other and it couldn't be more blatantly obvious. regardless of which gender(s) we date, we are morally bad and inherently red flags who don't experience pain but only inflict it. we're too straight for gays and too gay for straights. it's not really a wonder when you think about it why many bi sapphics would hope blending in with lesbians is a good idea (those with internalized homophobia and/or religious guilt who don't really interact with the queer community much may be more likely to do the same with straights). i'm not saying they're right to do so, just as a lesbian with comphet would be wrong to both bisexuals and themself to try believing they're bi instead, but it is a common logical thought process to assume the grass is greener on the other side. it's not exclusive to... any given concept, really, let alone queer struggles.
some of you lot will say ANYTHING to avoid admitting that youre just bisexual fr huh
the other bi butches i know do not include it in their bios, and as for myself i tend to lock my accounts if possible. one of my mutuals on twitter (probably yours too, iβd imagine) works way too hard to defend us and itβs really frustrating to witness because people refuse to even read/listen.
I wish people talked about how alienating it is to be butch and bisexual.
Almost everyone acts as if it's only lesbians who can be butches and even the lesbians who know that butch is not exclusive to them don't bother educating fellow lesbians. It's up to us and when we do try to educate others, we get harassed by terfs and exclusionists saying that we are "stealing lesbian culture" as if bisexuals weren't right beside yall helping build butch femme culture.
Heck even the butch bisexuals who are vocally active in the butch side of the internet don't call themselves bisexual and butch proudly in fear of getting harassed for being openly themselves. It's so fucking sad. I wish we had more solidarity. From lesbians, other queer people and especially other bisexuals. I wish I wasn't made to feel so isolated from the community that is supposed to be accepting of me.
β½βΎ bi blog β learn ur historyop (pride-cat, whom you can call aster) goes by he/she and identifies as butch (but is often inactive) icon credit: n7punk | header credit: mybigraphics
