Strength

bi people who are more attracted to one gender over the other are still bi, yes this includes those who are attracted to the opposite gender more, stop telling people they’re “too straight” for pride

bi people who are currently dating someone of the opposite gender still belong at pride stop saying they don’t

bi folk who are dating someone of the same gender are still bi, stop telling them they aren’t

bi girls aren’t “secretly straight”

bi dudes aren’t “secretly gay”

[seriously though why do y’all assume we’re all just attracted to men?]

bi people who come out as lesbian/gay later on are totally valid

bi people who end up being straight in the end are totally valid

bisexuality DOES include trans people, stop saying it doesn’t

being bi doesn’t mean you “only believe in only two genders” nor does it mean you disrespect those who don’t identify within the gender binary

bi curious people belong at pride as well, we all start our self discovery somewhere

💖💜💙 feel free to add onto this. As a bi girl who has experienced hate from both those in the LGBT community and out, I just felt like this needed to be said. 💙💜💖

Please take the time to support, uplift and remember your Native, First Nations, Aboriginal and otherwise Indigenous friends and family. We are here, we exist! We have a long and winding history that deserves to be heard and respected! The word ‘Indigenous’ is so wonderful, and so expansive, and includes so many different cultures under its arms. Go out, learn about our histories and our cultures. Talk to the Indigenous people around you! We’re everywhere!

And not only that, but also be sure to give extra support to LGBT indigenous voices in this community. We are a minority that is scarcely acknowledged, and in desperate need of it. Too many times have I gotten strange looks for being so openly Native and so openly a lesbian. It’s as if that combination is impossible for people to understand. Support our content, buy from our stores! Or at least just include us!
