I am not out yet. However I would love to know what people's reactions were when you guys came out as Bisexual. Was it positive? Negative? Both?
Before I found the term pansexual, I stuck with the label of bi--and nobody had complaints or issues with it. Actually, nobody really cared. My mom wanted me to be discreet about it for my safety, but nothing critical.
I usually got no reaction really. It was like I said nothing. I don't think they took it seriously. I am quite sure some thought I was just another straight girl trying to be something special (I wasn't out as trans back then).
