@onepict βOur data economy isn't based on consent, it is based on how valuable that information is to others. We're objectified.β β powerfully put. Thanks for being visible today.

@chrisjrn thanks, community matters so much. You and Josh are a huge part of that.
The work you both do for community safety and inclusion does make a huge difference.
It encourages others, at LCA 2020 I met and spoke to folks who were comfortable being out. It's such a powerful message, having such a vibrant community.

@onepict Your experience is so similar to mine in many ways. Including the discomfort in straight all-female groups and the simplicity of friendships with men. I knew I liked boys and girls back in primary school, but it took me till 2015 to come out to myself as bi. It just didnβt seem like a valid labelβ¦ there was so much biphobia, internalised as well as external. I hope many questioning folks come across your story and see themselves reflected in it.

@uanrah I think so many of us go through this.
I've read other bi accounts over the years, and yeah sometimes its a bit jokey. But the chaos of dating while a part of you knows you are bi is real.
Like I had friendships with boys from playgroup onwards. Girl dynamics were just complex.
Plus some of the younger bi folks did feel I had privilege appearing straight because I wasn't out yet. So there was a little gatekeeping. So I do hope if someone is questioning that the post helps them.
