Does it bother you when bisexuals identify as gay?
I have seen this brought up around DataLounge. I wanted to see it under one discussion.
Gay is used as an umbrella term. I have read responses saying they use it as shorthand for LGBTQIA or so they do not have to explain what pansexual is. A few clarified that because they prefer men they consider themselves gay.
But others resist and maintain that gay=homosexual and that anything else has its own label.
Then there are those who believe all queers are treated the same so it does not matter.
What say all of you?

Yes. They are giving the basic white girls false hope, and enabling their rude and disrespectful behavior towards gay men. Excommunicate them.

Really, OP? This was the best you could come up with? It’s such a non-issue.

Bisexuality is transitional, they always end up with fraus.

It bothers me when gay men feel the need to dictate to other gay men who they should fuck around with. Gay, straight, bi, it's all good for me. cock is cock and some of these repressed guys might surprise you, if you're open and not a endless pit of bitching and misery... THE END

Why does it incense people these days, but it seems like people back in the 20th Century didn't care about bisexuality as a trend or lifestyle?

"Does it bother you when bisexuals identify as gay?"
According to DL's bisexual superiority crew, that doesn't happen. In fact, they don't even want to ID as bisexual because it's 'too gay'.

Doesn't bother me at all, because 99.9% of all bi-sexual males are actually 100% gay. They just don't want to say it because they want people to think better of them than they do of the homos.

Straight women don't really want an openly bisexual male partner/husband (same as gay men don't).
It adds too much drama.
Exceptions exist, but it's a general rule. It's easier to be gay or straight to avoid your life becoming a soap opera.

Frankly, the OP's question makes no sense. Every self-claimed bisexual I've ever met was very proud to claim they were bi. They used it as a badge of honor. Even though I knew full well they were gay.
Word to the wise all you bi boys. Just because you had one drunken sex romp with a female in your youth, and have only been with men since then, DOES NOT MAKE YOU BI-SEXUAL.

I haven't dated another gay in over a decade. My exes are real bisexual men and I've never seen them or my friends ever calling themselves gay.
The only bis calling themselves gay are actual gays pretending to be bi.
Bi men lust after women and they can't hide their attraction it's not a myth and it's very easy to spot a real one.

I don’t know if it bothers me so much as it confuses me. If you are bisexual, you fall under the branch of other sexual minorities, but being bisexual and being homosexual are absolutely not the same thing.

The Enbies & Qs are infinitely more annoying, because they're usually loud, po-faced, obnoxious and language-policing about it. And they do awful cosplay.
Most bisexuals old enough to be out of school and off Tumblr are lowkey and don't bother anyone. The worst thing they do is cheat a lot and spread STDs, which is fucked up, but then plenty of exclusively gay & straight people do the same, so that's just general shitty behaviour from all sexually-active adults.

That's what I thought r23. I thought queer was the umbrella term for the alphabet soup, not gay. Isn't everyone who feels remotely different about anything sexual "queer" these days, and "gay" is still pretty specific to men who go up into the man?

I never knew it existed until recently. Everybody knows of the opposite gay men claiming to be bisexual, cause it is more socially accepted. They have been ridiculed forever. Here on Balkans there is a joke, based on the fact that bi means would on Croatian. So it went, He is bisexual. He would (bi) fuck women, but he can't, cause he is a fag.
But, recently I realized that there are not only political lesbians, which are common phenomena, but political gays, too. The guys that fuck FTM and claim to be gay. When in fact they obviously like women sexually, but have emotional issues with them, so poor girls have to cut off tits and have beard to be accepted.

That makes me sideeye. Most normal straight men do not like flat hairy girls with physically delayed maturity. Something a bit noncey about that.

Oh, please! The gays typically deny the existence of bi.
I’m technically bisexual… have enjoyed sex with both men and women. But our society makes us choose… and, frankly, I fit better with the gays. And I’ve been with my male partner for 25+ years. So I identify as gay.
You have a problem with that? I wouldn’t care.

R30 interesting. What made you try pussy in the first place? Was it societal pressure, or she was just that hot to you? How did the sex compare between her and the guys you were doing at the time? And did she know or suspect you may be into guys as well (moreso)?

I don't care if the term "gay" is used as an umbrella term because that's how language has evolved.
This thread is a hilarious, though:

Proof that people will never stop being morons when it comes to bisexuality.

If one is dating a truly gay man then it's deceptive and wrong for a bisexual to refer to themselves as gay to that person.

I believe and accept male bisexuality unlike most people here,but bi men should stop complaining about male bisexual erasure when they are the ones that refuse to identify as bi in the first place.My main issue is with those with a sexual fetish that consist of "turning" gay men to bi/straight and that think everyone is bisexual (but they are especially obsessed with gay men actually being bi.) Honestly these individuals should kill themselves as they are disgusting and I've met at least a few of them in here.

I’m trying really hard to be less “bothered.”
I saw a headline the other day that said scientists are predicting a massively destructive storm for the PNW that will do many millions of dollars of damage. I read the article. The best information they provided is that it will happen “some time.”
I’m not bothered by this because I refuse to be, much as I refuse to be bothered by other people’s sexuality and identifiers. Be gay, be bi. If you're an honest, friendly person doing your best in a cruel and confusing world, you’re great.

R32, it started in college while I was in denial about my sexuality, and one of the things that fed the denial was I really got off on sex with women.
Most gay men I speak with who have had experiences with women say they were awful.
For me, it was really hot. Can’t explain it.
