psa: please don’t use the phrase “sexuality is fluid” because not everyone’s sexuality is fluid. instead say “sexuality can be fluid”.
yes! the whole “sexuality is fluid” or “exceptions always exist” or “everybody’s a bit bi” is harmful towards gay people (specifically lesbians) bc then many people will use this reasoning to guilt trip gay people into “just trying the opposite gender” which is Yikes
I think maybe it even undermines bisexuality as a true thing, because if you equate straight people having that one girl crush in high school or whatever with bisexuality, then they also don’t understand why it wasn’t just a phase, a passing fancy or a choice. Like sure I felt like that one time but then I kept dating Steve and now we’re married uwu. See you can choose to ignore it! BLEH.
