I myself experience sexual attraction to both masculine and feminine people, leaning strongly toward feminine, but I have a hard time imagining myself being with a binary man. It feels a bit awkward to identify as a bi woman sometimes because my sexual attraction for men just kind of exists, yet I don’t feel entirely comfortable identifying as a lesbian for the same reason. I just learned about the bi-lesbian flag/identity and it feels more right to me because I don’t want to erase by bisexuality, even if I never choose to act on my sexual attraction to men. Curious what others think.
You’re just wrong though. Bi doesn’t mean trans exclusive. You are personally pushing for that definition through your actions and words. You are actively giving that word away to transphobes. Ultimately you’re free to believe whatever you want to believe, but you’re still just factually incorrect.
I don’t have the power to change what bigots are using it for. So I have to assume that people who use the term are using it in that way for my own safety. Outing myself in person to the wrong person in this day and age can get me murdered. And I don’t have the energy to ask every person on the internet to clarify. I don’t care what people use to describe themselves internally or within their communities. I am talking about the world in its current state. If people don’t clarify their intention, then I have to assume the worst common meaning for safety.
