Sometimes I see a post abt my fandom/ship and end up on that blogger’s acc, reblogging/liking stuff from the very recent one down to the very first post they’ve made and it’s prolly a pain in their asses when they see their notifications all blown up w my url on it reblogging/liking a ton of gay stuff. I’m so sorry 😂

the word ‘bisexuality’ is a taboo

it isn’t said on tv. orange is the new black, for example, features a bisexual protagonist who points out the biphobia at one point in assuming she can’t be attracted to multiple genders, but no one Ever says the word and she is ignored and referred to as a straight girl or a lesbian depending on the situation

other bisexual characters later turn out to have been Really Monosexual All Along. or are attractive, promiscuous women with commitment issues

this isn’t a coincidence.

people who are attracted to multiple genders, when asked about it, often describe themselves as “Fluid”. “I’d rather not label it.” “I don’t need to define it.” “It’s just whatever.” as if people are afraid of even implying the b word

this isn’t a coincidence.

the word ‘bisexual’ gets you different reactions in different places. straight people think you’re either faking for attention or a deviant. straight men are afraid of bi men and think bi women are just particularly promiscuous straight girls who want to have threesomes with them

gay men accuse bi men of being in the closet. lesbians accuse bi women of being straight girls going through a phase. and the ones who don’t do either of these things still often assume bisexuals are promiscuous, indecisive, and can’t settle down.

the theme throughout is that bisexually is illegitimate, deceptive, and always a front for something else.

this isn’t a coincidence

people are constantly encouraged to ‘settle down’, to ‘just pick one’, to ‘not be greedy’. abandon bisexuality. you’re really gay. you’re really straight. you’re too young. how can you know you’re bisexual at 16? 18? 20? 25?

this isn’t a coincidence

the word ‘bisexuality’ is constantly, persistently manipulated, by people who aren’t bisexual at all. the meaning twisted on shallow rationale. accused of being transphobic, or of being exclusionary. this has been happening for over 20 years now despite the existence of outspoken trans and/or non-binary bisexuals. whatever they can do to make you not say the word. pick a different one.

this isn’t a coincidence

bisexual people - whether implied or literally, deliberately saying they are bisexual using the word - are constantly rewritten as gay or as straight. gay icon. he was never interested in men. bi actor comes out? headlines say ‘came out as gay’, or articles outright ignore it

it’s never, ever a coincidence. bi erasure is a constant, ongoing thing.

To anyone who thinks we should go back to ffnet instead of using ao3 because of its no censorship policy:

-ffnet is famous for taking down THOUSANDS of gay/lgbt (”slash”) fic in the past. they had multiple scandals involving it. this is why ao3 was created in the first place–because ffnet went on a tirade of striking down tons of lgbt content simply because they did not like it and wanted to keep the site “kid friendly”

-ffnet allowed original source authors to sue fanfic creators. they did not help them at all and basically threw them to the wolves

-ffnet does not allow second person fic. one of the biggest fic influencing series is homestuck, primarily written in second person (thank you @happyeffect for reminding me of this)

-ffnet does not allow reader fics, where the reader is a character. it also does not allow any ‘comment based narratives’, meaning that readers can’t suggest what they want a next chapter to be about, nor can authors ask readers to choose a way the story should go. chat fics are also not allowed. neither are song fics.

-ffnet allows almost everything ao3 does with the added bonus of deleting any fic the mods don’t like, having a history of being terrible to the lgbt community, and not allowing anyone to post anything nsfw. as long as its not nsfw, anything you don’t like is still completely fair game, and you can write some pretty fucked up shit without it being nsfw

-ffnet’s website and infrastructure is terrible. it’s a challenge to find ANYTHING on there. it’s one of the most user unfriendly sites i’ve ever had the displeasure of using. also, there’s ads. some of those ads can be nsfw. some of them will give you viruses.

-ffnet hardly ever responds to anything users say. this includes reports.

-in fact, ffnet has a huge fucking problem right now. there’s a virus that’s embedded into effected person’s profiles that’s taking over people’s accounts. it’s infected many, many people on the site. well, you think, the site must being doing something about this! nope. they haven’t said shit about it, nor have they responded to anyone on the matter. ffnet’s administration and support team are near nonexistent. they wont even acknowledge that it’s a problem. 

if you want to find/make an alternative to ao3, that’s fine, but please, please don’t say that ffnet is even an option to go back into. please read up on ffnet’s fandom history and you’ll see how terrible they’ve been to both writers and readers.

#well shit I logged in earlier to ff.net but I've completely moved to AO3 #it's really user-friendly

Brain: You seriously need to start writing the next chapter.

Me: *five words later*

Brain: I don’t wanna write anymore. I wanna read something. 

Me: Alright, I guess we could do that for a bit. What do you wanna read? 

Brain: Don’t know. Wanna read. 

Me: There’s a lot to choose from. How about this? 

Brain: No. Not that. I wanna read a thing that fits these exact specifications. 

Me: Uh, alright, wow. Those are really exact specificatio-

Me: …

Me: Are you telling me you want to read the exact thing we were writing? 

Brain: YES! I wanna read that. Let’s read that. 

Me: …

Me: I don’t know how to tell you this, but we have to write it first.
