I think it's lucky you haven't spent enough time on Tumblr to be aware of the whole host of criteria a person has to fit in order to be a "proper bisexual" beyond simply being attracted to both men and women.

Why are you getting your information from that hellsite?

I'm terribly unconvinced that saying, "I'm not __ because I don't fit the __ stereotype" really does much to expose those stereotypes as bad generalizations.

Especially since, all of the following are stereotypes regarding bi people (depending on what the person wants to say at any point in time):

* We stick to "safe" relationships.
* We're sluts.
* We won't fuck trans people.
* We fetishize trans people.
* We're greedy for attention.
* We're not out enough.

I'm more concerned with the "we all love/hate this particular show" stuff. Or "we all do the 'finger guns' thing." Or "we all like putting ugly photoshops of bi characters in front of bi flags on our blogs." That kind of stuff.

People on bumblr exaggerate and self-promote to a great deal. It really doesn't mean much of anything outside of that person's bumblr clique.

Every internet medium has its own flavor of shitposting chainmail. No reason to take it seriously.
