Biphobia from white/white-passing queers is so damn exhausting
The title says it all. I've had to check several white/white-passing queer women on their biphobia today on someone's IG post where they talked about issues that bisexuals face (hostility at Pride, not being seen as "fully queer", etc.). Some of the replies ranged from dismissiveness about bi erasure and bimisogyny, to claiming that bi people have "straight-passing privilege" and claiming that bi women can't be femme/claim the femme label.
I haven't seen this level of hostility towards bi women from queer women of color (especially Black queer women). Without fail, that shit always comes from white queers. And it's like, WHYYYYYY are they so pressed about the mere existence of bisexuals????
I feel that, because of this endless wave of biphobia from the YTs, I have to become just as, if not more, hostile towards them and others who want to attack and denigrate the bisexual community.
I'm so tired. And it's only the middle of May.
