I agree Bi+ ppl need to be more visible/be in positions of influence jn the larger LGBT+ community. However I think all the stuff about Straight ppl being biphobic and fixation on being able to have bio children isn’t universal. Those are valid experiences but this book framing them as huge material barriers just doesn’t ring true, even when I have a lot of shared experience w Oakley otherwise

Kind of annoying that last chapter Oakley was very supportive of leaving an abusive partner that doesn’t support your bisexuality and suddenly we have this bullshit about “if your sexuality makes your Lerner uncomfortable just trying hiding your personality and pretending you don’t want to flirt with people of the same or non same gender that makes your partner angry” like this is shit advice

Very mixed so far. I like that he is affirming of bi people while for the most part not coddling their internalized homophobia. I could have done without his weird story about making out with a girl in front of a gay bar and his queer friends dunking on him, it didn’t seem that deep except to frighten other late in life Bis that people will diminish your identity

Trying unsuccessfully to internalize that Oakley literally says this is supposed to be an intro guide and maximizes accessibility. While not constantly point out where he universalizes personal experiences that don’t represent all Bi people
