#bisexual women

[genderqueerdykes]

its really funny that people struggle to realize that a bisexual man dating a woman is queer, and a bisexual woman dating a man is queer. have you met bisexual men? faggy. have you met bisexual women? dykey. those traits don't go away- still queer- regardless of whoever we're currently dating, if we're dating anyone at all- whoever a bisexual person is dating doesn't dictate the bisexual person's queerness, we are queer with or without a partner, whether or not we choose to date.

there is an inherent queerness to bisexuality that everyone loves to erase and i'm here to say: fuck that, bisexuals are queer 24/7, regardless of the given situation we're in. if you actually take the time to meet us, spend time in our company, and see how we actually behave and operate, you will see just how queer a bisexuals are no matter whether or not we date men, women, people or whomst ever. there is more to bisexuality than just who we date

A Few Things I can’t wait to do as a young queer person

Can’t wait to come home to my wonderful wife and tell her about my day and I will do it everyday as long as I live

Hold my lover’s hand, kiss her and tell her how beautiful she is

Make her smile because she deserves to smile

Look at her like she is the only person in the world

Call her many names and never get tired of the new ones I create

Make her breakfast, lunch and dinner

Cook her my cultural food

Listen to her deepest thoughts and she listens to mine

See our journey as we grow together

Show her my new achievements even if they are small

Listen to music while we laze around at home all day

Visit our family together

Go on so many cute dates and when we’re working hopefully make time for those once in a while ones

Style her hair to her liking

Take care of my lover when she is sick

Hug her when she is cold

Comfort her when she is sad, angry or scared

Kiss her while she watches stuff of her interest

Watch our favorite movies and shows together

Cheer her on when she’s down

Let her fidget with anything anything on my body when she’s anxious (ex. Hair, fingers, hair)

Act like I have a secret crush on when we’re already together

And most importantly I can’t wait to call her mine

(There are so many more I can’t wait to do with my future lover but that’s for her to know)

“I Think…” by Leanne Franson, 1992

Jenny Watson: "We can do it, so let's do it." Jenny outlines her plan for a female-only, lesbian space.

For my lesbian, bisexual women, and radfem Followers. Via Graham Linehan's Substack.

For many decades, London was considered the global capital for lesbian nightlife. But you’d never know it if you visited the UK today. It’s not for a lack of British lesbian culture: I’m a lesbian, I’m involved in our country’s lesbian social scene, and I can assure you, it’s alive and well. What we lack at the moment are our own dedicated spaces. I think the UK needs once more to have lesbian-run, female-only community spaces. 

I’ve got an idea about how to make one such space a reality. And I believe I'm in a position to make it happen.

Over the past seven years, I've had the privilege of organising a range of lesbian social events in London. Throughout this time, I've made many connections in our community, gained an increasing understanding of our needs, and created social spaces that I hope go some way to meeting them. 

And in those seven years working to coordinate part of the the UK’s lesbian social scene, I’ve come to see how badly we need a dedicated, strictly female-only event space — now more than ever. 

Men have been encroaching on the lesbian community, and the problem is only getting worse. There’s been a sense of inevitability, that this is just something we have to learn to live with.

But I’ve had it.

In June, I skipped London’s official Pride festivities and instead visited an alternative, independent event at the Hampstead Ponds. It was a female-only picnic. Hundreds of women of all ages were gathered, from their teens to their eighties. And the sublime joy that I felt that day led me to a eureka moment:

We need this. We deserve this. This is our right. As lesbians and bisexual women, we have a right to social spaces that are entirely our own.

So, earlier this year, I decided to implement a women-only policy at my events. Although this sparked controversy, we ultimately received recognition from the UK’s largest pub operator that it is legitimate to hold women-only lesbian events - a real victory!

And then it suddenly dawned on me: we need more and not only do we need this, I can do this. I feel I have a good sense of the UK market for lesbian social events. So I crunched some numbers and developed a business proposal. I gauged interest and studied feasibility. And I’m excited to tell you: I believe this can work.

My plan involves establishing a private members’ club and securing a prime physical space in London. By day, this space will operate as a versatile hybrid workspace, becoming a venue hosting various social events in the evenings and weekends. Alongside these, we'll provide online events, and collaborate with service providers for health and wellness advice, fitness guidance, group trips, and more. Revenue will come from the events, partnerships, as well as from membership dues.

To the lesbian and bisexual women reading this: you’re welcome to get in touch with me if you’d like to learn more. There's an opportunity to invest if you’re interested, too. I’ve got a pitch deck I would be happy to show you and a fully fleshed-out, 50-page business plan. And I’m happy to report that there are already investors who have given the thumbs up. 

Following my announcement and inspired by the community's heartwarming response, I decided to introduce an early-bird membership programme. This includes a personalised QR-coded membership card for exclusive updates and access to a members’ discussion space. Joining early also signifies your part in accelerating our community's launch. 

Which brings me to another issue, and it’s a big part of the reason I’m writing this now: online critics. There’s a small but vocal group of people online who’ve been saying some pretty nasty and completely unfounded things about me. This group of people have taken to personal insults, and accusations that I’m a fraudster and a grifter.

I’m not entirely surprised to encounter pushback, but at the same time, the level of vitriol has been eye-opening.

But I try to put it in a bigger context: Lesbians have faced so much abuse, and for so long we’ve had to settle for having social spaces conditionally, on terms set by men. There’s a climate of distrust and fear looming over the lesbian community as a result. So much so that today the idea of even having one single space fully dedicated to lesbian and bisexual women seems so radical, some people’s initial reaction is that there’s got to be a catch.

I completely understand that a good dose of scrutiny, of tempering optimism with some degree of caution, is reasonable. It’s healthy. And it’s entirely welcome.

But personal insults and unfounded accusations are not. I know that emotions are running high, and we as a community are feeling beleaguered right now. But that’s no excuse to target my Irishness in personal attacks, for example. Or to target my business supporters with lies about me.

I'm not here to push or persuade anyone who doesn't feel the spark for this project. However, for those who do, our project investors' safety and security are crucial — capital funds are securely placed in escrow and I've teamed up with a business consultant who's right here supporting us until opening day. We’ve put together a solid business plan.

If anything, the tenor of some of the criticism I’ve faced only hardens my resolve: it just highlights how badly women need a space to unite us, to heal us in this difficult time.

It’s been upsetting to endure the smear campaign that a small online group has thrown at me… but my mind keeps going back to that Edenic afternoon at the Hampstead Ponds, where hundreds of women were gathered in serenity and harmony.

This will heal us. This will unite us. And it will make us all stronger. Lesbian strength comes through unity.

There are various ways you can help, but the most crucial one is spreading the word - our message is the most important part of this project. 

Other than that, as I mentioned earlier, if you are a lesbian/bi woman, there is the option to join as an early-bird member (however, this is not compulsory; you can wait until our opening). Additionally, there's the opportunity for investment or donation. I've prepared a comprehensive 50-page business plan and pitch deck available for those who are interested.

For a deeper understanding of the project, feel free to visit our website or you can email me at contact@lcommunity.co.uk 

Any form of support you can offer is immensely appreciated as we work towards making this a reality.  

We can do this. So let’s do it!

hi.

[that-bisexual]

I'm bisexual

I'm bi all the time. I'm not straight when I'm dating the opposite gender, I'm not lesbian/gay when dating the same gender. It's not a phase, it's not a transitional period, I really am bi. I don't just want attention, I'm not greedy, this is who I am.

I'm bisexual.

Posts that start out with “we support bisexual women” but then follow it up with stuff like “and their bland boring ugly stupid beige pathetic awful boyfriend” are not nearly as progressive or supportive as they think they are. Like sorry, but I don’t find that reassuring or supportive at all
