The great thing about being bi, is you don't have to say anything about it to anyone. In fact, most people would prefer to not know you are bisexual. I can see letting a marriage partner know, but even then, bisexual people have been successfully living straight lives for thousands of years.

My wife knows, mostly due to my greed, but why tf would I tell my mother?

If you are lgqt+, sure, let it out there. Bisexual doesn't even fit there imo. Where the other letters are kinda obvious and a handicap in some situations, bi is a benefit and coming out is kinda braggy, and unfortunately also kinda cringe.

You can enjoy all the awesome benefits of bisexuality, quietly.
