I only want to beat you because you said so. Don't "woe-is-me, I'm the victim" if you're gonna doubt someone's identity like that.
You think certified bisexuals don't also suffer because of this shit? You think our attraction doesn't ebb and flow over time, leading to pointless imposter syndrome because you were worried about keeping out "trenders" for some reason?
If they end up being wrong, acceptance is still the best strategy. Let them know they can always change their mind. Bi people may later identify as straight, gay people as bi, and vice versa.
They may not have been entirely wrong either; it's not like anyone knows how it works for certain. If you think anyone does, you don't understand the current state of science. You're just a "queer ant" trying to justify prejudice about people who are different ๐
