Do you think it is true that a lot of lesbians in the lgbt community discriminate against bisexuals? This could be in a multitude of ways, including not wanting to date one. Have you ever experienced/witnessed this? Have you ever done so yourself?
(Remain respectful and calm whilst discussing this)

Definitely experienced it. Had a friend who got really angry when another friend of ours went from dating a male to a female. She accused her of being selfish and "stealing" all the people int the world. A totally irrational argument. She was just jealous I think!!

My ex girlfriend was bi, so no, I don't have a problem with it Still, all of my friends (they're almost all straights) think that bisexual girls are just in a "phase" and that they are not really attracted to girls. I have friend who's bi and they just think that he is totally gay and they wouldn't date him even if he is really nice and funny... But I can get why there is discrimination even if I disagree. Truth is for everybody, you can't control your feelings so you don't really have a choice, that's why I wouldn't be mad at them

I see it quite often. Bi-sexuals are greedy, they're just going through a phase, they just want their cake and to eat vag too. I've heard it all. I think its silly. Date who you want, put whatever junk you want in your mouth. Its good by me.

I have experienced it. I'm pan (but most of my friends and folks don't know what it is, so I use the term bi), and when I came out to my dad, he didn't believe me and told me I was just in a "phase". But usually, my friend say that I'm lucky because I have more options than them..!

I do see it, but a lot of time more outside of the LGBT community. Many people don't even believe it is a thing. They only think you are straight or not. No between. Its not possible. A lot of them are called selfish, and greedy, or that they're just doing it to get attention from guys (or girls).
I think it is sad though when it happens inside the LGBT community because we all know what it is like to face hate and ridicule, and to do that to others is kind of a double standard and just wrong.

But usually, my friend say that I'm lucky because I have more options than them..! I relate to being bi, I suppose I'm still trying to come to terms with really liking girls.....I myself haven't come out yet (only to one or two close people) maybe it's a way of people being open about love? Or a way of not committing themselves to liking a particular gender because they find both sexes attractive :') I don't know, but as I am (I think...) I have no issue of people being bi because it's who they are! Ana, that's what one of my friends said hahaha There's no right or wrong way to feel, to love and I believe it's important to make people feel as comfortable as possible with who they are ^_^

I don't have a problem at all with it. My significant other is bi but I have seen her get di cremated or treated differently by it. Mostly guys wanting to have threesomes.
