I hate being judged for being bi.
The last time I went out to a gay bar, I was hitting on a beautiful girl. She was reluctant to flirt with me so I ended up giving up.
A week later, one of my best friends said she was talking to the girl and had to attempt to convince her I was gay/bisexual. The beautiful girl dismissed me completely saying that I’m just playing at being a lesbian.
How am I supposed to view the gay community as an accepting place to be myself when I’m constantly judged for my sexual preferences and appearance??
I know binaries, especially in a black and white world, feel safe to people but ostracizing people to make others feel more comfortable is just as bad as the subjugation the entire gay community feels from conservative straight people.
Why is it so hard to believe someone can be attracted to both sexes?

Filthy/Fabulous Rehab, The Aftermath.
Well, Friday night was a blast and a great turnout!
The vodka flowed as we danced ourselves into a beautiful Friday night frenzy, mingling with giggling girls and dancing dames dressed in their finest. The brunt of the crowd arrived around 11pm but the continuous growth of the crowd made it hard to recognize who was coming, leaving or stepping out for a smoke-break. The music pulsed through the room, echoing our favorite Rihanna anthems as well as some occasional throwback techno (this was in Boystown, afterall). Even after the VIP crowd ran out of their giant bottle of 20 Below, that Minibar so courteously provided on the house, no one’s mood faltered. The drinks were strong and so were the good vibes circulating in the air.
Over all, it’s easy to say it was a much more Fabulous than Filthy night.
