Natsuki really doesn’t care about what clothes are “gendered” as; they love wearing anything that makes them comfortable and happy, whether that’ll be a baggy sweater with cute pumps or a soft and flowy dress.

Bi Positivity

 I found this article about the positives of being bisexual. 

I think it’s important that somewhere we find good things. There are articles for days about unemployment, poor health and general biphobia but we need to remember how being part of the bi community can be a good happy thing!

As the language is not the nicest language (academics grrr...) I’ve made a rough summary below

The article is about a group of bi people from various countries who were given a survey (age/gender/etc) and some boxes to write down positive things about identifying as bi. I’ve summarised most of the main points:

-Many of the bi people liked that they felt they can see past binary systems; they like that they are somewhat free from these constraints.

-They also reported more freedom with gender roles and gender expression.

-Being able to ID as bi gave the participants a sense of validity and self-acceptance.

-Many participants feel they are more independent thinkers as a result of identifying as bi, and they like being unique.

-Lots of them also said that they are able to appreciate individual differences and felt less judgey as a result of being bi.

-Many thought that realising your bisexuality takes more self-exploration, reflection and insight than it does for their gay/straight peers. Because of this, they feel they are more self-aware than a lot of the people they know.

-They like that they can be attracted to a wider set of people. Some said they like not being confined to one gender, and they are more able to appreciate/fall in love with other characteristics besides anatomy.

-Being outsiders in both the straight and gay communities, the bi interviewees felt they had a greater appreciation of the impact of oppression and discrimination that affects lots of groups, nit just LGBT ones.

-They also like the strong sense of community that comes with IDing as bi, and see themselves as educators and activists for under-represented and oppressed groups.
