I was friends with a lesbian couple and they told me that both of them made sure the other one was definitely not bi when they started dating because [sic] Bis are the worst you just can't date them. Your comment reminded me of that. I'm very sorry that you felt so alone for such a long time.
Thank you. I often say that Bisexuals had to be closeted twice. Once for the homophobes and once for the homosexuals. (Anyone remember Chasing Amy?)
I genuinely believe that things started to get better once Anna Paquin came out as bi, especially after the cringe worthy Larry King interview.
As a fellow bi man I feel like the progress in just the past 10 years has been huge, and one of the biggest changes has been how much more accepting other queer people have become.
I feel like it's been closer to 15 years, but I definitely agree that acceptance was the more drastic change.
