This particular headache happened awhile ago, I’m much better at the vetting process nowadays then I used to be.

Basically remembering to mention that I’m bi before activities happen.

EDITED to add alt text (I’ve only done this a few times (in particular for art I’ve done) so I’m not too good at it with memes)

    Why are people so obsessed with creating categories and boxes? Just have sex with people you like lol

      In general: Because the current status quo is that people assume straight as the default thus we show pride in our sexuality and label it so the following generation knows that it’s ok the not be straight.

      In the context of this meme: gold star gays are weird enough to not consider people gay if they had straight sex in the past even if they realized that they don’t like straight relationships/sex for themselves. So I pay them no mind.

        Yeah I guess it’s the difference between inclusive categories (“me and my friends are gay yippeee”) and exclusive (“you have to have had only sex with guys”)

        I’m all for labelling if it’s for pride :3
