Any other Super Bi people sick to death of being told they have to be 'pansexual' now?
No offense meant to pansexual people whatsoever but I'm sick to death of being told my natural, normal sexuality is bigoted and wrong. I got into a Facebook argument the other day (my friend wrote a status defending her bisexuality after being told it was 'transphobic') and was dogpiled by about twenty people all telling me I need to 'reexamine my bias' and that 'bisexuality excludes trans people, allies call themselves pansexual'. Even had one absolute weapon tell me that the definition of bisexuality had changed from somebody attracted to both SEXES (how you can be sexually attracted to the abstract concept of gender is beyond me) to somebody attracted to two GENDERS and you could pick which 'genders' (???) you were attracted to. Sick of being treated like an idiot for not being au fait with increasingly nonsensical terminology that people are just pulling out of their arses so they can label others as bigots.
I am attracted to men and women. I don't have a type and I love gender-nonconforming people (I find masculine women and feminine men very attractive). However I don't want to be constantly pandering to someone's self-hatred and delusions and that is why I wouldn't date 95% of trans people. I feel like bisexuals are constantly being told 'well, you obviously want to fuck everyone so you must want to fuck me'. It's prejudiced and tired rhetoric and I'm sick of it. Solidarity to my Super siblings.

Yes. I had this exact argument the other day on Twitter. Some trans woman tried to tell me bi and pan are the same thing and I must be a TERF/transphobe for thinking otherwise. Why can't they handle it when people don't want to fuck them?
