I can totally see this. Gay people have the support of the LGBT community, while bisexual people often don't have the support of either the straight OR gay community, we're very isolated and tossed aside because we're seen as not good enough or not important enough for anyone to care about. I've said it before but it's like we're too gay for the straights and too straight for the gays. And there's a lot of both straight and gay people that absolutely refuse to date bisexuals because of tired stereotypes like "they're promiscuous and will cheat on me" "they're indecisive and can't make up their minds" "they'll realize they're really actually straight/gay and leave me". A lot of times I don't feel like I really belong in the LGBT community, even though the B is right there. Y'all have to understand the extreme lack of support we get from basically all non-bisexual people. And it's still seen as okay to say insulting things about bisexuals, and nobody really sees anything wrong with it like they would if the same thing were said about a gay person.
Quote:
"When you compare relative to other groups, bisexuals reported lower rates of getting the emotional support that they felt they needed.”
"Some research has suggested that bisexuals may be 'minorities within the minority' because they experience even greater levels of prejudice and discrimination than gays or lesbians,"
The gays running in here, claiming bisexual people have it easier.
No, we don't - the straights don't use us because we still have same-sex attractions but the gays don't use because they think when we're in straight relationships, we're not functioning gays.
