Our orientations are part of our identities. Not “equated to”, not our entire identity, but part of it. I am bi. I am also a woman, a person with disabilities, neurodivergent, white, cisgender, a musician, a rat parent, a daughter, a friend, an artist, a pet care professional, a gamer, and on and on the list goes.
The way y’all talk about us, it’s like you think our orientations are all that is important about us.
