Chapter 2 - Bisexuality, a Different Struggle (My Bi Diary)

Hey guys!

So...

I'm back with Chapter 2.

I did get an amazing invisible response to my first post about this topic so I'm just gonna move on.

I kinda get it, sadly I'm also the kind of person that reads a lot but doesn't have the time/patience to manifest. As long as I see numbers in the "visualizations" category, I'm going to keep this topic alive. I want to help others by also helping myself. I always loved to write and it helps me organize my thoughts.

A simple disclaimer for this chapter, because I feel it might be important: My opinion on this post is going to be based on my life experience as a bisexual in the early 2000's. Not to say that things got any easier, but it was a different time and a different way of thinking. Society was different. Also, I don't want to offend any bisexual that doesn't feel what I feel. When it comes to sexuality things get very personal even in the way of thinking.

Enjoy.

Chapter 2

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The main focus of this post is how I feel excluded from the fight against equal rights.

LGBTQ+ community has been doing amazing things and we have come far.

But the B always felt kinda weird for me. 

I came out to myself as bisexual quite early in life. I've always been into boys and every experience I ever had I felt like I wanted and enjoyed it. But I was also not blind to the idea of being extremely attracted to girls. 

As I was casually dating a girl, I felt really involved in everything that surrounded LGBTQ+ fights. 

When we broke up, for a while I didn't want to settle down with anyone so I was in a "fling" vibe until I met my current boyfriend. 

My support is always there for everything that is worth fighting for but I didn't felt "in" the fight anymore. I became a person outside the struggle but fighting side by side, because it's the right thing to do.

That experience is what made me had this feeling that as a bisexual, I have a different level of struggle then the rest of the community simply because one side of my preferences belongs in the "normal standards of society" and that's disgusting to think.

Over all it's the idea that a bi can be hidden from society's judgement because they can be in a different sex relationship. 

I never hide what I am but I'm not really bombarded with questions or insults because hey, my partner is a male.

I'm sure there's a lot of things left to say about this but I can always make a 2.0 after.

Right now I think I said everything that I felt in my heart.

I hope I didn't offended anyone with this, It was not my intention. 

Again, my opinion and my feelings are my own to deal with and are coming from my life experiences. It doesn't mean in any way that you have to feel the same.

Just gonna rap this up by quoting my favorite bisexual character from a book/tv show, in Alec Lightwood's words, the quite magical Magnus Bane.

"I'm a freewheeling bisexual"

It's all for now.

Bye!

Chapter 1 - The Concept of Bisexuality (My Bi Diary)

Hey Guys!

So...

This is me again, trying something different. I woke up today and thought - "Uau it's been a while since I write on my blog." - Second thought was a bit more idealistic (after a cup of coffee of course) - "Maybe I should randomly talk about my life so I might help someone else. Bring something more to the table then just reviews on things that I see.".

I have a lot of unfinished scripts because most days I can't think straight. Well, I'm not straight so I guess that's the problem.

Sorry for the uncle joke. It's not very common for me to talk about my sexuality. Gonna do my best to change that.

But ya, in between job and working out, I don't really have the energy to put in to words what I feel about things.

Okay let's start.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Chapter 1

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Bisexuality is a simple concept. Basically it means you are physically attracted to both genders, male and female.

So that part is easy right?

The easy starts and finishes there.

Even among gays and lesbians, there's this wrong idea that bisexuality doesn't exist. Please don't kill me, I'm not saying everyone is like that. But some people are. Most of them will say, - "They are simply confuse." - wish is a bit hard to ear considering most of them probably heard the same from people that don't even believe in a "same sex" attraction.

We are suppose to be united in our troubles against the normal standards of society and this is coming from a person that believes that bisexuals have a different level of struggle, when it comes to dealing with society.

I always admired the LG fight for equal rights. That can be a all other chapter of this diary, but just to rap this topic up, us bisexuals can use the straight part of ourselves to hide in society. A lot of us can eventually fall in love emotionally and sexually by someone of the opposite sex. That happen to me. I can just pretend I' not attracted to girls for the rest of my life because I do love my boyfriend and I want to spend my life with him.

But I don't want to pretend. I don't wanna hide.

I don't want to make this post to long, I just want to finish by saying that I love and support every single fight for equal rights. I only focus on sexual orientation struggles because that was the topic.

I hope you like this new topic I'm working on.

See you soon, bye!
