Those are pretty different situations. In any case, but for, like, one, all the bisexuals I've known are in m/f relationships and frequently bring up their bisexual identity. The one in the f/f relationship constantly name drops the label too. M'thinking not facing solid oppression makes showing the label a priority. And being with a dude doesn't disprove bisexuality, there are just more dudes out there to form connections with!

I don't understand your point, sorry. Previous anon said that they don't approve of genderqueer people who are okay with being perceived as their birth gender. Are you saying that it would be okay for a genderqueer person to be perceived as their birth gender so long as they continually announced their genderqueerness?

[(Anonymous)]

I'm saying I'm used to seeing bisexuals who are not okay being perceived as straight or gay, hence the announcing.

And not getting your second sentence. If they announce it, they aren't okay with their gender being assumed. They might not be okay with it if they say nothing either.

Could you clarify what you meant by this sentence please?

M'thinking not facing solid oppression makes showing the label a priority.

Obviously, I can't speak for any other bisexuals' experience, but one of the main reasons I'm as out about my sexuality as I am is that I've had way too many people who assume that I'm straight think that it's totally cool to start saying really hateful homophobic and biphobic things when they're talking to me. And I just can't deal with that horrible, punched-in-the-gut feeling I get from realizing that the person I'm talking to, this person who I thought was a friend or at least someone who respected me, actually thinks I'm sick and wrong, and they just don't realize they're talking about me. Being really upfront about my sexuality makes these encounters much less frequent and helps me stay sane.
