Tag: but like…..

i rly have conflicted feelings towards jean genet bc on the one hand he was openly gay and wrote about the drag scene before anyone else did (in the french literary scene – i mean that he was the first one to reach the mainstream opinion) – and like… he gets it, exposes the mechanisms of misogyny and gender basically but…….. on the other hand hes so fucking misogynistic like… why do you have to justify your gayness by shitting on women………. why are you so complacent towards morally corrupt and oppressive masculinity (i.e nazism, fascism in general)……….. like dude. you get it. we’re in this together. instead of securing gender to sound ~ transgressive ~ lets burn it down!!!! you get it!!!! why won’t you help your lesbian siblings & women suffering from the same kind of oppression!!!!!!!! ugh

“this gay society is organized by ranks. masculine men are on top, feminine men at the bottom of the pyramidal power scheme (((((if i may say so………))))). Feminine gay men, who are neither men nor women, are meant to be dominated by masculine men. I wont even talk about women because they disgust me too much.”

“Okay so you do agree that masculine supremacy and misogyny are oppressive and must be eradicated, right”

“Actually no. I love nazis. They’re masculine.”

“… what”

“Obviously ‘bihet’ offends a lot of bisexuals, so we need to come up with a better term for bisexuals in m/f relationships.”

How about… and hear me out… this may sound crazy…. but you… continue to call us bisexual… because (and I realize this gets confusing for you people so read this next part slowly) it turns out we continue to be bisexual regardless of who we’re dating.

Okay, this shit gets me all heated up. I’m just a cisgay dude up in here, but I have Some Opinions about this nonsense.

Bisexual people in relationships with folks of the other gender are not only themselves still bisexual (I’m really ashamed of a bunch of all that this shit even needs to be said, like c’mon), but their relationships are queer.

Yes, I just said that straight people can be involved in queer relationships without they themselves being queer.

The reason for this is simple: folks who are in relationships with queer people will always have to deal with their partner’s marginalization impacting their relationship. Always. Even if their bisexual partner chooses to be entirely stealth about their queerness (and that’s their right, by gods, fight me about it), their relationship is still impacted by that very choice existing. It’s a facet heterosexual relationships never have to negotiate.

Frankly, bisexual folks have to deal with active marginalization from multiple angles: heterocentrist and homocentrist. And in case I actually have to say this aloud? We should not be fucking marginalizing our own, y’all. That makes you a bad person, and you should feel bad.

To sum up: Bisexual folks are queer as hell. Straight folks can be in queer relationships without themselves ever being queer. And FFS please stop harassing bi- and pan-folks already, man. It’s 2018. Find hobbies that are not shitty.

I love this addition to my post so much thank you.
