biphobia in the LGBT+ community just makes me sad. I have experienced biphobia, especially from lesbian women who are very adamant on not dating bi women for a variety of reasons. it also upsets me when people just see me as straight if im in a relationship with a man, i feel like i constantly have to defend myself and prove my queerness to everyone.

when i was younger i used to doubt myself because i've never seen nonmonosexual people. letting people live their lives unless they're harmful shouldn't be that difficult...

The erasure of bisexuals in the community is just hypocrisy. The community exists due to "othering" by heterosexuals. Why then would the same people who have been treated in such a way turn around and do the same?

It also feeds into the idea that people can choose their sexuality.

I feel like bi/pan are often invisible to others. If we date someone of the opposite sex, we're viewed as 'straight', and if we're in a same sex relation we're viewed as 'gay'. People need to understand we're neither. Being bi or pan isn't even limited to two genders to begin with. It's even worse for ace people, since they get disregarded completely in this scenario. Bi-woman are often seen as a guy's threesome fantasy more than anything, and don't get me started on the phobia towards bi-men. It's tiring.

Ytber verilybitchie makes a lot of interesting videos on bisexuality, if anyone is interested!

I'm bi demiwoman and seeing other people labeled me as cis straight girl, only because i was dating some guys in the past and i don't look androgynous, upsets me. I think that, unfortunately there are some people, who thinks that being bi is just being indesicive or that bi people don't want to date non-cis folks(especially trans people).

Someone told me one that my attraction to girls its only a kink, I still laugh when I think about it. 
Also I have encountered so many straight women that were queerbating... At least 3 hooked up with me only for attention, "omg girls kissing, so hot"

I've had an awful lot of experiences with biphobia. I live in a very queer house share and they are aware that I'm bisexual but call me and my boyfriend "dirty hets", "dirty straights" or say "ew" and pretend to vomit and stuff if I hug him or give him a peck. I grew up in an area of the UK where I was exposed to a lot of LGBT+ people as a child so I thought it would be okay coming out to my mother. She said it was a phase and I probably only liked "butch-looking" women. (She later said she was obviously joking when I called her out on it at Christmas but she is a whole other headache). "Greedy" is a word I've heard a lot, in my area it was common to hear things like "You can't have chips AND rice". In the LGBT+ community there also seems to be this stigma that if you identify as bi rather than pan then you are automatically transphobic. When I was single I matched with a guy on tinder who was pan and he tried to tell me that I am also pan because I would date people of any gender not just cis male and female. He then proceeded to call me a dumb b*tch for still calling myself bi.

this might sound a bit harsh but i believe majority of the biphobia comes from women and young girls who are questioning their sexuality. many of them are quick to jump to the conclusion that they are bisexual because they find girls pretty and whatnot when they are actually straight. (NOTHING IS WRONG WITH QUESTIONING SEXUALITY!) i think that because there are so many women questioning and then deciding that they are not actually bi, others immediately call "fake bi" and assume that bi people (esp bi women) are confused or just looking for attention. this mindset is extremely toxic and i do not agree with it, that is simply what seems to be the case in why biphobia in the community is so rampant as of recent
