Re: "I am not your label"

People (men, really) certainly like to question my queerness. I guess I could be labeled as bi, but my attractions to men are very, very narrow and specific, so my dating/relationship experience with men isn't very broad or extensive. However, for the times when I have dated a man, I'd suddenly have male co-workers, friends, and even my brother questioning me and telling me that I must be straight. When I've mentioned girlfriends, I've been asked, "What are you?"

I've also been told to "just pick one", as if my sexuality is something I'm confused about and can easily settle with a simple decision.

I've been in love with men and I've been in love with women. I am not confused. I cannot be magically cured with heterosexual sex. I cannot just pick a side.

ugh, that thing. it's weird. I'm pretty quiet about myself. I'm not "pushy" about being bi (I don't even bring it up in RL unless someone asks me) but I've still had people yell at me to Just Pick One or tell me point blank that bi girls are just straight girls who want more attention.

or "oh what, so you're straight now? that's new"

no.
