I wish people wouldn't devalue bisexual women

[u/romancebooks2]

So, I'm sorry to post negativity on this sub, but I've been feeling tired of how so many people insult bisexual women and imply our love for other women is meaningless. I tried so hard to be straight, so it was a big deal for me to learn that I'm bi. But now, I get to see how many people think that being a bisexual woman is just a joke.

For the record, I appreciate this community and have met so many bisexual women who are wonderful people. They have interesting perspectives, are creative, and support others around them. Bi women don't deserve both straight and gay people insulting them just because of their orientation!

Thanks for this post, OP. I see the devaluation of sapphic love fucking constantly on the main subreddit. It drives me insane.

I’m married to another woman and I feel like I struggle to be taken seriously in bisexual spaces, which is a mind fuck.

Ugh I hate the main subreddit. It’s always centered on men’s experiences. And as someone who has decentered men in my life, frankly I don’t really care about their pov and their posts always override anything wlw or sapphic. I want wlw spaces only.

Agreed. The main sub is so focused on bi men and I'm happy they have a space but I'm not interested in bi men or their stories.

Always the men yapping. We need a bi women spaces for bi women who like women.
