Bisexual

This is a community for bisexuals, their allies, friends, family, anyone curious about us or our community, or just people who want to hang out.

Bisexual means different things to different people, and I'm not going to tell you what it should mean to you. But one thing I will say is that being bisexual does NOT mean being trans-exclusionary. We love no matter what dingles, dongles, or dangles you do or do not have in your pants.

Of course, there are the basic rules. No hate speech, no brigading, no doxing, no homophobia, no transphobia, no sexism, no racism, no illegal material. Rules will be added as needed.

At the moment, we do not have a hard and fast rule over NSFW images or posts, but I will say that this is a community about bisexuality, not for porn. Please don't make me ban NSFW content altogether.

I want to consider myself a bisexual but liking feminine men feels kinda like cop out (lemmy.blahaj.zone)

In the end this ramble will be pretty meaningless until I actually manage to have any actual relationship, cuz its kinda dumb to talk about it never being in one (well technically there was one week long disaster, but that's not a story for today). Ive got disorders and am well aware of my perception of reality being distorted, which doesn't mean I actually can recognize these distortions. For some reason, whether those distortions or experience, I consider gay peoples very cool and interesting and it would kinda feel nice to be one of those? I think? Idk, am histrionic, Ive had a history of jokingly flirting with all irl friends regardless of gender, but I did it more for the sport of it than to make it into something serious (don't do it anymore, realized it was too easy for me to overstep boundaries). Sometimes I get a like on a dating app from a man I would consider really fucking good lookin', but like, why do they send me a like to never ever respond? I hate dating apps. So yeah, I just wanted to ramble a bit, please yell at me if you mind

Dating apps are demoralizing for most people. Never take them personally.

When my son approached me with a similar ramble I told him to not worry about the label. Sometimes it’s encouraging to find a label we fit and it makes us feel more like part of a group rather than alone. That is valuable but any label is also constraining. If you don’t fit a label, it’s the label that is limiting, not you. You should do what works best for you, regardless whether it fits any specific label. And that includes not doing it if that is best for you at this time
