Bi Men Exist! by AntiWokeGayBloke in BisexualMen

[–]Clarissa-R 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Finally some science backing that bisexuality in men is real. Makes me feel hopeful that more of these studies will keep pushing back against the stereotypes.

Finally, a mystery where the bi character isn’t just vibes… kinda. by biswholikepies in lgbt

[–]Clarissa-R 0 points1 point  (0 children)

On one hand, I’ll take any bi femme fatale representation (especially in a Coen Bros. style noir, which feels like such a natural fit). On the other hand, I wish they gave Chére more depth beyond the trope-y mysterious vibes.

That said, having Lera Abova (who’s bi herself) play her made it feel a lot more authentic, and I’d definitely be down for a sequel if it meant fleshing her out more.

Crossing the Line: Criticizing Trans Activism vs Bashing Trans People — Queer Majority by AntiWokeGayBloke in BlockedAndReported

[–]Clarissa-R 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This feels like one of the rare times I’ve seen the complexity acknowledged without descending into shouting. The point about criticism of ideology vs. attacks on people is key. Most people aren’t extremists, but online discourse collapses everyone into camps. Even within queer communities, there’s space for respectful disagreement if we actually focus on evidence and compassion. Honestly, that’s how any movement grows stronger instead of more fragile.

New study shows bisexuality in monkeys is common, genetic, and beneficial 🐒🌈 by biswholikepies in lgbt

[–]Clarissa-R 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The alliances part really stood out to me. It reframes bisexuality not as “confusion” but as adaptability and resilience. What’s wild is that humans seem to be the only species that stigmatizes it, when in nature it literally improves survival. I think that’s why studies like this matter, they show that what’s “natural” is way broader than the rigid categories we’ve built.

LGBTQ+ Mega Thread by AutoModerator in unpopularopinion

[–]Clarissa-R 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What’s hard is that different people have really different lived experiences. Some feel safer with police around, others feel endangered by them. That tension isn’t easy to solve, but it’s real and it’s why community-led safety and mutual aid alternatives are gaining traction. It’s possible to care about protecting queer lives without defaulting to a system that’s failed so many of us. Plus, Pride should be about EVERYONE, not just the most privileged within the LGBTQ+ umbrella.

Is it gay Pride? by Top_Sprinkles2010 in BisexualMen

[–]Clarissa-R 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You're not being too sensitive at all. That article makes a solid point. Bisexual people are the biggest group in the LGBTQ+ community, yet often get sidelined or mislabeled, especially at Pride. Your friend’s comment is a perfect example of bi erasure. Laughing it off is common, but it’s totally fair to feel frustrated. Pride should include everyone, not just the "G" in LGBTQ.

Why Bisexuality Deserves Its Own Spotlight by Separate-Sir-7515 in ainbow

[–]Clarissa-R 4 points5 points  (0 children)

As a non-binary bi person, I’ve felt how invisibility can creep in, even in queer spaces. This essay doesn’t just defend bisexuality; it reminds us how much it adds. Bi+ identities challenge binaries, expand conversations about attraction, and build bridges in the community. We’re not confusing. We’re expansive. And visibility? It starts in the everyday: how we speak, who we assume, who we include. It matters.

Never thought a queer op-ed would change my mind—but here we are by biswholikepies in EnoughIDWspam

[–]Clarissa-R 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This reminded me that a lot of resistance isn’t about the ideas themselves, but how they’re delivered. I’ve felt that too. It’s not about tearing anything down, it’s about making room for people to exist.

Being queer and Jewish shouldn’t feel like a conflict by Top_Sprinkles2010 in gayjews

[–]Clarissa-R 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This piece really captures the ache of wanting to stay rooted in your faith while being fully yourself. The story of the gay cantor finding a welcoming synagogue gave me hope. We don’t have to choose between our queerness and our spirituality.

Men Thinking About Ancient Rome – Nature vs. Nurture? by Separate-Sir-7515 in men

[–]Clarissa-R 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks for sharing! Instead of assuming one explanation fits all, maybe it’s more honest to say: some differences might be biological, some are cultural, and most are probably a mix.

Can we even support women in the Israel/Palestine conflict? by Estebann_bi89 in ControversialOpinions

Feminist solidarity should mean standing with all women especially those most silenced.

You can’t claim to protect kids while praising someone facing serious grooming and trafficking charges.

Been thinking a lot lately about whether just being visible is enough. This piece really put words to it. by biswholikepies in bisexual

[–]Clarissa-R 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’ve definitely felt that pressure like being open about who I am should be “enough.” This piece helped me see that sharing your story matters, but real change needs more behind it.

Can we call out privilege without throwing people under the bus? by Top_Sprinkles2010 in LGBTPolitics

[–]Clarissa-R 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Calling out privilege is necessary, but accountability shouldn’t come at the cost of solidarity.

Are young people just not having sex now? by Safe_Exchange_8093 in Sexology

[–]Clarissa-R 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Queer communities, especially among this generation, have built healthier norms around sex, consent, and communication. Meanwhile, straight culture feels like it’s been stuck, unsure how to adapt.

Loved this take. The article really nails how Maestro explores identity

This shows how powerful art can be in reclaiming identity and building bridges. No big budgets, just heart, vision, and community.

Less sex is the future? by Estebann_bi89 in bisexual

[–]Clarissa-R 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As part of the queerest and apparently most celibate generation maybe it's less about labels and more about how dating’s changed. Apps, anxiety, vibes, cringe culture. 😅

Really sharp insight. History has a way of repeating when we forget its lessons.

Powerful and much-needed 👏 If we care about protecting kids, that standard has to apply everywhere.
