Did you mean to sound dismissive and disbelieving? You sounded dismissive and disbelieving. If that was your intention, you sound pretty sheltered.

If you do mean what you said, you may have a tough time. Because there are lots of them. Maybe not on tumblr, LJ, or DW, or your LGBT group, or your activist community... but all over Facebook and less "social justice oriented" places? In colleges? In bars?

If you look, you will find them. The ones who say they are bisexual but ewww trannys and ewww shemales, they just mean they like hot chicks and hot dudes? There are plenty in my experience. Just like there are plenty of gay men who think transmen not ~real men with real cocks~ and lesbians who think transwomen are ~gross~. You think bisexual people, or people who find out they like ciswomen and cismen then start to identify as bi, are magically are more enlightened than this? They're not.

That sure was a long response to a one-line comment and you sure did pack a lot of slurs into it.

Re: HI!

(Anonymous) 2013-09-10 04:30 am (UTC)(link)
As someone who those slurs might apply to, I think I have the right to use them, especially to demonstrate discrimination.

And you are avoiding responding to the content by picking on the words I chose to use, which were not my words but words I have heard used by others which I have repeated to illustrate my point, which you have not addressed. If you aren't going to respond to the actual content of the comment, this conversation seems over. Yes?

You sure like talking.

Transphobia from many bisexuals and a whole lot of rest of the lgbt community is a real thing and it hurts to see it dismissed this easily as though it doesn't happen or isn't an issue. But it appears this has gone nowhere and I've wasted your time and mine with this. I'm sorry.

I'd say the answer is to attack transphobia, not bisexuals and bisexuality. And yes, it has become an attack on inclusive bisexuals when I see anthologies edited by people who identify as queer and genderqueer get bad reviews for including stories that apparently don't meet a litmus test for crossing the magical bi/pan boundary.
