oh! It seems two communities have independently coined the term adonic. I always understood it to mean a man attracted to nonbinary people (so I use it for a Male MC and an Nonbinary LI) and used diamoric for a relationship with one or more nonbinary people (with enbian being specifically nb4nb) but if you google it results vary by search result, or even the way in which you search it. This phenomenon seems relatively common in the world of queer people coining new terms

Oh that's interesting! I was told about that term by a genderqueer person who said I could use it for relationships with enbies. I will research a bit myself too and clarify with them once again. Thanks for letting me know!

I was asked a little while ago by @lxdybi to make an art piece honoring and celebrating bi femmes! I of course have honored bi butches with artwork several times before so i was very happy to take advantage of this opportunity to recognize the importance and value of bisexual femmes (of all genders and orientations) in the bisexual community and queer community at large.

So much thanks to the bi femmes in our community we wouldn’t be the same without you <3

The symbolisms in this piece!

lavender colored roses: to honor the color lavender used in sapphics spaces

moth (on one of the bags): moths are an unofficial symbol of bisexuality (usually displayed in the form of a tattoo) and occasionally used in flagging

trillium flowers (on the sleeves of the pink dress and in the border): a flower used to symbolize bisexuality known in the botanical sense for its perfect bisexual nature (having equal male and female structures)

ignore your responsibilites and fantasize about bisexual butches

“Though gay people believe that identifying as a bi person is easy in India, bi people themselves do not share the sentiment. Bi people attending gay groups do not talk about their bi identity, for fear of losing what little support they get in these spaces.”

For butch appreciation day, we appreciate all bisexual butches here <3

I wish people talked about how alienating it is to be butch and bisexual.

Almost everyone acts as if it's only lesbians who can be butches and even the lesbians who know that butch is not exclusive to them don't bother educating fellow lesbians. It's up to us and when we do try to educate others, we get harassed by terfs and exclusionists saying that we are "stealing lesbian culture" as if bisexuals weren't right beside yall helping build butch femme culture.

Heck even the butch bisexuals who are vocally active in the butch side of the internet don't call themselves bisexual and butch proudly in fear of getting harassed for being openly themselves. It's so fucking sad. I wish we had more solidarity. From lesbians, other queer people and especially other bisexuals. I wish I wasn't made to feel so isolated from the community that is supposed to be accepting of me.

To all the bisexuals out there who are wondering if they can use butch or femme for themselves/wondering if they can identify as butch or femme, I'm here to tell you, yes. Yes you can. You absolutely can. You have the right to claim them just as much as lesbians do. Bisexual women were right alongside lesbians helping them build butchfemme culture so you bet we can identify as butch or femme. They are not lesbian exclusive whatsoever. Hell, they aren't even exclusive to women.

If you feel like butch or femme fits you, then go for it. Make it yours, embrace it alongside your bisexuality. Don't let anyone stop you. Don't let the people erasing and rewriting queer history win. Bisexual butches and femmes have always been here and we will continue to exist.

I just want to say to all bisexual butches, femmes and futches that you are all so brave. SO MANY people tell us we can't use those terms because they don't belong to us, that we are stealing them which is so wrong. But we are still here and we are are not hesitant to claim something that belongs to us, something that we helped create and I think that is so brave. I love you all and thank you. Because whenever I see bisexual butches, femmes and futches being happy and proud in their identity and just being there, it brings a smile to my face and makes me feel like maybe things are not so bad after all
