Eh - I think all bisexuals need for strangers/coworkers/friends/family not to assume that the gender(s) of future partners have anything to do with the gender(s) of past partners or our own gender. As they say in finance, “past performance is no guarantee of future results.”

This is so accurate! Imagine if we all realised that people’s sexuality isn’t our business and doesn’t matter if we first see them as humans first.

I also think part of why queer people do this too is in response to the homophobia. Personally if I’m going to get close to someone I can’t help but wonder if my sexuality would affect their view of me hence I start wondering if they’re queer as well or straight and that mental gymnastics is a bit too much considering it’s not supposed to matter you know ?
