I came to this sight to help accept myself and my sexuality and to eliminate this insecurity that I have. I so far don't feel as though I will ever feel secure in myself. There's such a negative stigma on bisexuals from monosexuals. There's no feeling of acceptance from either side. I'm too gay for straight and too straight for gay. I shouldn't feel like this. I don't need to feel like I have to only like one gender to be accepted. There's more to me than my sexuality. I am an artist, a singer, and a hard worker. I am smart and loving. I am loyal in relationships and friendships and I am honest. Bisexual doesn't define me.
You're fine as you are. No stigma from me. Is there a genre of music you find yourself singing more often than not?
Well inside school, like for my studies it's classical and musical theatre For fun at home it's usually rock, with a little of everything else mixed in
Amen! <3 I'm glad you've learned to disregard what hateful people say. I wish I could be as accepting of my sexuality as you are your's.
Agreed. Multi-sexual orientations often get even further stigmatized than mono-sexual orientations. I keep hoping that it will be like other things - the most exposure people get to it the more they realize it's not strange, immoral, indecisive, or inauthentic. Furthermore, it is not the only characteristic that makes up a person as you pointed out Cass. Does being on here help? Or support groups in RL? Having confidence in yourself goes a long way towards others' acceptance (or no longer caring about a stranger's acceptance).
EC has only helped me stop caring what others think because I see so much here as well as RL. I haven't tried any RL support groups yet, but I'm not sure if I'm ready to yet.
I like classical music, not sure if it's considered the same thing in the discipline of singing, chorale is often nice. And I hear you, there are so many great rock songs. Sometimes I wish I could sing but, oh well. :rolle:
It is the multisexual's burden not to be able to fix the prejudice of monosexuals. There is much negativity around multisexualities, and I'm unfortunately quite sure you've even been exposed to some of it here. However, it is not tolerated. A solid core of the gay and lesbian users of the forum are against bi-hatred. Many gay and lesbian folks speak out against bi-hatred, and we have real allies. But since, as I described, you can't fix evil, you just have to be stronger than evil. Through caring and hard work, I know that you are capable of being a knight for others. I don't know your life, but I'm sure you already have been. Just keep on.
Bisexual doesn't define you so the only acceptance you need is from people with whom you are interested in being sexual.
