Did you know that there are some secret emojis that represent the lgbtq+ community? For example bisexuals:

Okay Iām taking a brief pause from my regular simping over Minecraft youtubers to write a hot take thatās actually serious.
Straight people complaining that certain songs or artists are associated with LGBTQ+ identities is kind of homophobic. Iāve seen so many people I know and people on the Internet act like they have been personally victimised by someone asking if they were bisexual in a tiktok comment section after they used sweater weather, or complaining about how āam I not allowed to listen to *insrt artist* because Iām straightā. This is utter bullshit. Someone inquiring politely about your sexuality is not oppressive or rude.
Moreover, the reasons these songs and artists are associated with LGBTQ identities is often for a reason. Sweater Weather is mostly gender ambiguous, and gained popularity during the queer pop wave of people like troye sivan that was popular with bisexual people on sites like tumblr. Hence it became a 'bi anthemā. That doesnāt mean if you like it or use it youāre bisexual, but it means the song is part of bisexual culture.
The same thing goes for girl in red. She is popular and gained traction largely due to lesbian and wlw communities, so obviously sheās going to be associated with lesbians. Does this mean you canāt use her songs or like her if youāre straight? No. But it means that girl in red is an artist that is part of lesbian culture, and to get offended when people link the two isā¦ Kind of homophobic.
Straight people can listen to this music (or indeed do other things that are associated with LGBTQ+ culture) and get defensive because 'oh youāre assuming my sexualityā and 'I got a comment asking if I was gay š©š¤ā. But they are still allowed to get married everywhere, they are still allowed to walk down the street and hold hands with the one they love and not feel in danger of being beaten up. LGBTQ+ can listen to these songs or not listen to these songs, and then be systematically oppressed.
In conclusion: be quiet you arenāt a victim because people think sweater weather is a bisexual anthem. Also, why shouldnāt it be? LGBTQ+ people have so little media associated with them. Itās a fucking song.
1How did I not realize I wasnāt straight earlier??? My first sexual experience was literally me looking at boobs online. How did I justify that to myself???
1The bisexual experience is liking long haired anime men and having to tell people theyāre menĀ
1Anyone else whoās bisexual put your hand up, if you are tired of trying to correct people at work that you like both genderās not just gay. āāš³ļøāšš
1The amount of boys that Iāve been with that just donāt match my energy saddens me. All of them claim to be men in some way shape or form but none have given me āreal manā vibes.
Is it me? Am I too much? Are my standards too high? Or is it because Iām in compromising on them?
I want a man both in and out the bedroom but I seem to only attract one or the other or neither. Maybe itās too early for me to think about this. Maybe the universe is tell me to focus on me. Maybe itās not my turn just yet.
I guess Iāll just have to wait and seeā¦ā¦..
But then again, āØWomenāØ
Theyāre so beautiful. I canāt compete. I donāt know where to start. I donāt want to give the wrong impression or misinterpret signals.
Is there an easier way to tell? Will they think Iām faking it? Would they think Iām doing it for a trend?
The thought of having a girlfriend excites and makes me anxious. Iām a bit shy but also bold when I see what I want. I hope to get my personality and feelings across without coming off as a creep, a phony, or a manipulator.
I guess Iāll just have to wait and seeā¦ā¦.
My bisexual problems
0āhow do bisexuals know theyāre attracted to both the genders?ā
- āuhm, how do straight people know they arenāt attracted to the same gender?ā
āwe just do!!ā
- āduuhh..ā
0Me and my girlfriend/boyfriend @isto-to-the-max are the ultimate Bi couple and you cannot change my mind
6Friends
Theyāre so pretty, it hurts
Iām not talking ābout boys, Iām talking 'bout girls
0Every day is a new day to dress slightly more like Noel Fielding than the last.
16Us lesbians are allowed our own spaces. Iām so tired of people saying we donāt, or trying to enter our spaces weāve made for us. Lesbians have a unique experience, and we like to have our spaces for us. Gay men have their own spaces, as well as bi, and trans, all lgbt identities have spaces to themselves and are 100% to have their own spaces. If a lesbian space asks for lesbians only, please respect their wishes. Thereās plenty of groups meant for bi people, lesbians, and other identies, I respect when groups arenāt meant for me, as do most of us, and we ask for the same respect in return.
