Except for the fact that I live in the US, I could have written your comment. I love that GWS strip.
Pretty good 101 post, most of the assumptions about what me being bi means (indecisive, greedy, really gay) have come from the gay community so i think someone laying on the line that these are not OK is really important.

Straight people do not make these assumptions about you as well?
That’s a very common thing that folks seeking to be ugly to other folks (even subtly, politely ugly) do…..reduce a human being in all of that person’s complexity to the worst possible assumption of that person. For bi people, it’s sexual appetite. (Compare to, say, gay men, where it’s pedophilia.)
I’m not speaking for Jemima, but the “really gay” has come exclusively from gay people for me. The rest is pretty evenly distributed between gay and straight people.
Same here. I was once flirting with this black woman in a bar and the convo basically went:
Me: Blah blah i’m mixed-
Her: You look like a black woman so that’s what you are…
Me:…
Her: blah blah lesbians, amiright?
Me: I’m bi
Her: ohhh such a cute little baby! When you come out as lesbian you’ll understand-now about your misguided career choice…
