It's not about me and my precious feels. By all means, if I had the utopian choice, I'd identify myself as just k___sexual and k___gendered.

But I live in a world where we just had a semiautobiographical hit TV series by a bisexual author run for a full season without dropping the b-word. I live in a world where people run studies on dicks (I kid you not) trying to confirm or deny my existence. I live in a world where Dan Savage blames me for stereotypes he helps to promulgate.

I'm not terribly interested in defining who is or is not a "real bisexual." That's another idea that we rejected back in the '90s. But since my social reality is shaped by anti-bisexual prejudice, that's the stakes we're dealing with. We're communities of resistance as much as self-identification.

I suggest being careful with that in fandom communities. You're dealing with a lot of young people who are overly sensitive to criticism. If you say that being subject to prejudice is necessary, they're going to decide they have too much "privilege" to call themselves bisexual and seek another identity.

I know that sounds nuts but that's the environment we're in.
