  1. CW: re: Thread, kink, bisexuality, self-acceptance, love, personal growth

    Right now, I can't bring myself to go back and reread some of my previous threads angsting about my coming out as #bisexual because I imagine that they're too cringe. At some point, I will probably be able to accept and reread them, but not right now. But so many of you read them! And so many of you offered #compassion, whether that was in commiserating about the #biphobia and #panphobia within so many #LGBTQ spaces or in offering a kind of gentle and generous acceptance of my messy and conflicted feelings and my #grief over who I could have been in a more accepting world. I am so thankful that Mastodon offered me a space to work through those feelings and connect with people who responded with thoughtfulness and patience and kindness. I don't know that there's any other online space where I could have found that kind of response. So, if you ever interacted with any of my posts about my #ComingOut as #bi later in life, thank you!

  6. @CatoTheCactus Finally, the Ochs definition of #bisexuality is actually the definition for being #polysexual. It's fine if this is many people's working definition of bisexuality, but it does raise the question, "why not use polysexual?" And while for some people it's just that the word doesn't click for them, there can sometimes be behind it hostility to words besides bisexual to describe experiences of multiple gender attraction. I'm looking at the part of the bi crowd that does #panphobia.
