This episode was for the gays, lesbians, bi acceptance, and for Rinas...

true bi-ace solidarity is being both of them at once

Happy Bi Visibility Day to all of you and to this scene that made me cry back in the day.

Also use this a checkpoint for you to remember some stuff that as with on my own journey I think they are important:

If you're not comfortable screaming it loud it's also okay, youre not less Bi for it.

We're not 50% gay and 50% straight, we're a nice weird jumble of mess

You've gotten this far in knowing yourself so CONGRATS! Celebrate by loving and treating you right you're important, you're valid 💖💜💙

Also guys I know we sometimes are invisibled by both straight and other parts of the community but don't do the same to other identities (coff coff mostly the Aroace spectrum so please don't as an Aro Bi is hurtful to see that)

Anyways that's it love you byeeeeeeee (or would I say Bi?) Horrible joke sorry not sorry 😘

What We Do in the Shadows: Season One — 15/10

Yes, indeed, there is not a single heterosexual in the main cast. All of them are at LEAST bicurious, if not full on bisexual. I personally prescribe to the theory that vampirism, in this universe, anyway, makes one perpetually Down To Fukk. For evidence, I submit: *wildly gestures at everything this show does all the time*

Which is not to say that every member of the gang knows themselves quite yet. In fact, I think almost all of them are still figuring themselves out on a deeper level. Which makes sense when you really consider it, right? You’ve been turned into a vampire some handful of centuries ago, you suddenly have a LOT on your plate! That pesky, newfangled sexual awakening is just going to have to wait until you’ve figured out the more pressing stuff, like the “feeding” situation and deciding upon An Aesthetic for yourself. (You can’t drain the lifeblood of an unsuspecting neighborhood looking like a trash cat; how uncouth that would be.)

So now, in the 21st century, we see the gang begin to connect and reconnect with parts of themselves. Nandor, once a king and a bloodthirsty (lol) warrior, is now hardly man of the house, and even that authority is questioned on a daily basis. But slowly, he begins to find his place in this modern world (he gets his citizenship at one point!), and finds his place within the gang, too. Basically, Nandor is kinda like Posh Spice, so to speak.

Nadja has to separate herself from Laszlo, as well as the ghosts of her former lovers, particularly... was it Jeck? Jesk? Anyway, Nadja also sees a startling amount of herself in the awkward, clumsy, unconfident Jenna, whom she turns into a vampire and tries to take under her wing (lol, it’s gonna keep happening, huh?). Nadja is, of course, Scary Spice.

Between Simon the Devious and the temporary break that Nadja imposes, Laszlo has to face some deeply buried insecurities which are often easily dug up by those around him despite his best efforts. Laszlo is Baby Spice, of course.

Colin Robinson is absolutely the filthiest member of the gang; this may very well be because he is the only one fully accepting of himself, and therefore getting laid as he likes. The rest are floating, hissing balls of latent-bisexual disaster, but Colin Robinson knows what he wants, and has the confidence/hubris to go out and get it. Colin Robinson doesn’t learn or change so much as he becomes more stalwart in his own, already titanium-strong sense of self. For these such reasons, he is Ginger Spice.

Which leaves Guillermo, who arguably grows the most of all five. As Nandor’s familiar, he wants nothing more than to be turned into a vampire — a goal which, much like the proverbial carrot on a stick, is always one step out of reach. Like Colin Robinson, his resolve hardens as the season goes on, but unlike Colin Robinson, Guillermo’s resolve is challenged frequently, subjected to tougher and tougher litmus tests, until destiny itself comes a-knocking to tell him that he was always meant for the very opposite of what he wants the most. He learns not to give up, but he also learns where his limits are, too, and that if he doesn’t stand fast for himself, no one else will do so for him. For his resilience and dedication, Guillermo De la Cruz is Sporty Spice.

Also, Harvey Guillen is both talented and sexy as all hell, and I could watch him endlessly. Honestly, 2 points for Harvey Guillen just bein’ here. What an absolute treasure. God bless.

Bi Visibility

Bi-visibility day, eh? I suppose I can say my bit. Accepting that I was bisexual has never easy. It took me until almost my entire life so far to understand that fact. It wasn't until August last year, when I began my relationship with my BF did I truly and unequivocally accept that I was bisexual. Whether I'm into guys and girls doesn't matter, what does is if you truly love someone, you cherish & treasure the time you spend with the one you love. Love is love regardless of their gender or sexual orientation. I just so happen to be trans & bi. I'm proud to say that. <3

Bisexual erasure pisses me off

Whether it be in mainstream media or the lgbt community themselves it's still a piss take. Bisexual people are constantly put down and denied because they're "too straight" or "not gay enough".

Or we're just plain erased.

If a bisexual women has been in a "straight" relationship she can/is a lot of the time either rejected or ridiculed by lesbians. The same goes for men.

Also let's not forget the cover up of bisexual people when it comes to pansexuality. I've seen multiple cases of people claiming either a character who is bi is pan or real life people.

Bisexual people get told that they can't be bi unless they've dated both sexes. Well guess what mate I've dated neither. Does that make me asexual or aromantic. NO.

I've had people tell me that because "I don't really mind which gender I like" I'm pansexual and not bisexual. I'm bisexual because I like men and women separately in different ways. I'm not pansexual and there is nothing wrong with being pan but trying to force someone to identify with a different sexuality is not okay.

I am not a bi curious teenager who is "figuring herself out". I am not a closeted lesbian either and the sooner the lgbt community accept people like me the better because I don't feel like part of the community at all.

I don't usually rant about this sort of thing but it's been irritating me for a while now.
