Bisexual Health Awareness Month💗💜💙

Bisexuality is thought of as the invisible part of the LGBT (Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender) acronym, when Bisexuals actually make up the largest segment of the LGBT+ population. Bi people still experience a great amount of hostility and it is still very much a taboo despite increased campaigns to raise awareness. It has also become a lot more complicated with the advance of LGBT+. 

💗💜💙

So why are bisexual people targets? Let’s dispel some of the most popular stereotypical misconceptions:

💗 It’s not just a phase. It’s about being attracted to the person, not their gender 💗

💜 Bi people not inherently cheaters because of their sexuality 💜

💙 It’s not about being greedy, it’s about loving people for who they are, not what they are 💙

💗 Bisexuals are not scared of commitment, they are scared of not being understood and accepted for who they are 💗

💗

BISEXUALITY IS VALID AND YOU ARE NO LESS BISEXUAL IF YOU DATE SOMEONE OF THE OPOSITE GENDER

💜

REMINDER THAT BIROMANTIC IS ALSO VALID AND YOU CAN HAVE A PREFRANCE OF WHO YOU WANT TO DATE VS WHO YOU PREFER TO HAVE SEXUAL RELATIONSHIPS WITH
