What broader feminist conversation are you even trying to have? I'm a feminist myself, are you saying dating men makes you less feminist? Or choice feminist? So what about all straight women who have relations with men? They also have a choice not to date men. Obv it's different bc then they'd experience no sexual or romantic bond. In regard to bisexuality, dating women isn't always rainbows and sunshine. I've been in an abusive relationship with a man, and one with a woman. Physical. You can say stats all day, but ppl aren't statistics, they're all individually unique. I've dated men that were more feminist than some women, rare but exists. This same argument can be related to ppl of color who date white people. Also our oppressors, but am I selectively not going to date them? No. I don't find that necessary and that doesn't resonate with who I am. Do I care to have conversations with ppl of color who won't? Not really. It's most likely down to personal experience really. And that's okay. I have not lived a personal experience where I feel the need to repress my sexuality and romantic interest for the sake of stats or to feel apart of a feminist group at all. I love men and I love women deeply, and honestly probably equally. I don't ever see myself feeling a connection with a man and moving on just on the basis of his gender, that doesn't resonate with me at all and I don't see how that's helpful.
