If we’re talking people who are cool with straight and gay people but have a problem with bi people specifically: it’s usually a relationship insecurity think.
The assume bi people need constant sexual gratification from both genders and as such are incapable of true monogamy because if they end up with a male partner they will soon yearn for a female one and cheat, and if they end up with a female partner they’ll soon yea... well you get the idea. So they create this narrative that bi people are just going through some hyper sexual stage of their life where they’ll accept any gratification and if they want a more stable relationship they’ll have to ID what gender they actually want to be with.
Totally not speaking for a year long relationship with a very insecure women who couldn’t stand the fact I had hooked up with a few guys before her.
its also tinged with misogyny and that dick > vagina: bi women are hets who are pretending to be into girls and bi men are gay guys who cant accept themselves. Doesnt help that a lot of gay men do actually come out as bi first, present company included lol
There’s also some rad fems who think bi women are lesbians holding onto some attraction to men they were conditioned to have.
rad fems will just assume anyone's a lesbian, won't they
Oh shit am I a lesbian? I do have sex with women.
Sorry, everyone's a lesbian now. Including the straight women. And inanimate objects. Gotta get that gay grass.
