Feel free to downrate this lesbiphobic garbage too, as most of the ratings & reviews are currently positive.
So in the past 6 months:
A hetero woman released a movie called You, Me and Him in which a lesbian couple trying to have a baby befriends their hetero male neighbour and one of them cheats on her girlfriend (wife?) with the man and gets pregnant.
A bisexual woman who wanted to “challenge the lesbian identity” released a book called Stray City, in which an out and proud “lesbian” has sex with a man and gets pregnant.
A bisexual woman who wrote a book called Adam about a hetero boy who rapes a lesbian until she learns to like penis has announced that she’s making a film about said hetero boy who rapes a lesbian until she learns to like penis.
We just can’t get a break, eh? Yeah, it’s not just men who have a creepy fixation on lesbians and contribute to rape culture against lesbians. Hetero and bi women are weirdly obsessed with violating lesbian boundaries in the stories they create, converting lesbian characters into more acceptable bisexual versions and making a mockery of female homosexuality. The interests of hetero and bi women in harming lesbians align with those of men and they, like men, profit from it.
So Ariel Schrag, the author of the shitty book Adam, has never spoken about her sexuality. Don’t make shit up to fit your anti-bi narrative.
Edit: actually, can you source chelsey? Because a couple minutes digging turns up nothing for her either.
Ariel Schrag wrote an entire biographical comic about her sexuality. It was the first thing she ever published. She’s stated the character in it reflects her own growth through high school. That being said, the characters comes out as bisexual first, and a lesbian later in one of the books – but those same comics also make jokes about how she needs to have sex with a penis before she turns 18 or ‘it doesn’t count’ as losing her virginity and has made other comments in her works about seeing sexuality as fluid and not something that’s black or white, so I don’t think she understands what “lesbian” actually means. This is probably why people call her bisexual. I’m not saying it’s right, but it’s also inaccurate to say she hasn’t spoken about her sexuality at all.
Chelsey identifies as a “queer woman” and basically implies that she thinks gender shouldn’t matter, but that’s the closest thing I can find to her coming out as bisexual. She doesn’t use the word specifically, but I imagine that’s where the above list got bisexual from.
Reading the source for Ariel, it sounds like she identifies as a lesbian. I think it’s wrong to dismiss that and call her bisexual because her younger self had warped views on sex and sexuality.
And with Chelsey, ‘queer’ could mean anything. OP took that and twisted it to support their view. It’s just frustrating, because this post has been circulated and from the notes, everyone has just believed it.
And honestly, even if they were bi, the only reason for OP to need to bring it up is to demonise the entire group. I appreciate the sources though, thank you.
Both of those women are unambiguously, undeniably bisexual. It really doesn’t matter if a person does not explicitly say “I am bisexual” when what they say about their attractions, desires, or relationships reveals the same information. “Sexuality is fluid,” “hearts not parts,” “genitals don’t matter to me,” “monosexuality is so restrictive,” and all variations of those mean bisexual. Ariel Schrag wrote books based on her own experiences dating, fucking, or wanting to date/fuck both sexes. She is not a fucking lesbian, she is just another homophobic bisexual woman who fetishises the idea of being a lesbian while hating actual lesbians. Lesbians don’t write books about lesbians getting raped until they turn bi, but it sure is convenient that homophobic bi women can call themselves lesbians so they can make it seem like lesbians are doing this shit to ourselves! Get outta here with that. Finally, lesbians are not “demonising” bisexual women for pointing out their lesbiphobia. Many bisexual women hate lesbians just as much as men and heterosexual women hate us, and we can call it as we see it. If you are not a bi woman who is engaging in the lesbiphobic behaviour being criticised in this post, then it doesn’t apply to you and you have no need to be so defensive.
