A Blog Called Everything

I'm a 20 year old cisgerendered, bisexual, polyamorous, sex-positive female. I'm anti-rape, pro-queer rights and love cats. (General trigger warning).

queer girls living with straight partners are NOT living in a state of “straight privilege.” because they’re NOT STRAIGHT.

they may have passing privilege—but as others who are infinetly smarter than i am have pointed out—this is not straight up privilege—because it is a site of *oppression* (through invisibilization and erasure that affects more than just bi girls) that our social sorting strategies only allow straight/gay man/woman man/man and women/women relationships.

so yeah, i don’t know what to call it what bi girls living with straight partners are doing—but i DO know that it’s not straight privilege.

angrybanette:

also please remember that historical non-hetero relationships are often used to out you and deny you privilege even if you’re currently in a hetero or hetero passing one.

also poly people

also sometimes people talk about who they’re attracted to, thereby losing their straight passing privilege

I hate that this is a thing that needs to be said.

If anyone of any gender has sexual thoughts or experiences about both women and men… it’s not up to the rest of us to say that they’re “really” bisexual. Or, for that matter, that they aren’t. It’s not up to the rest of us to say whether these thoughts or experiences are trivial or important. It’s up to the person thinking them and having them.
