I appreciate that most of my audience already knows which side my loaf is buttered, but there’s a handful of people who don’t. Today is Bi Visibility Day, and it seems only right that as I decloaked myself on FB, I should also put in the effort on my blog.
And by ‘effort’ of course, I mean ‘write that I’m Bi’. I couldn’t even think of or find a good picture.
This year is also interesting given as I’ve come to know a small number of folx who have confided that they’re either having a difficult time with trying to figure themselves out, or who are simply not in a position to come out to their family or friends.
So, to you guys I raise a glass. I shall stand loud and proud and decry myself as being a big ol’ queer bird. Perhaps by adding my voice to the mix I can help make a small contribution to driving back -isms and erasure, and help normalise the vast, beautiful spectrum of preferences and proclivities we’ve all been painted in.
Good luck to your peeps who aren’t in a position to be out yet, I’m glad you are and are able to talk stuff over with them.

I just hope that the creepy bi dude next door who thinks I don’t know he is lusting to get into my old heterosexual guy pants doesn’t get inspired to be more visible to me in particular. Hey, bisexual is wonderful, I am brahmacarya now, but always preferred sex with women, many who were bi. I loved a couple of em, over the years. Many people I have met who come out as bisexual had hard lives, many became bisexual after prison experiences. I think of it as a legitimate way to address perceived Yin-Yang imbalances.

I’m glad you’ve found a route that works for you and I’m grateful for your support, but I’m not sure why you think including predatory bisexual rhetoric is in any way appropriate on this post?
