It's A LOT better now, but when I was a teenager/young person, I never got as much flak and hate about being bisexual, than I did from lgbt people at the time. They had derisive names for bisexuals and called us hedonistic or undecided, etc. I always felt looked down on at lgbt events. Gen z is much better at accepting people though, good for them.

My brother was bisexual and told me he was often looked down on and called an "equal opportunity slut" by others at LGBTQ events Circa 2014.

He has since passed away but I can only hope things have improved.

He could've appropriated the shit out of that, it goes hard.
