Hey, gays who were around in the ‘90s, look back and reevaluate things with the insight that male bisexuality, only then being acknowledged as a thing at all, is as common as then-voguish female bisexuality!

That “straight” jock your friend got to feed him loads in college? That was a bisexual man.

The married guy you were fucking who would never leave his wife and their perfect life? That’s because he was a bisexual man, he in fact liked being married to her, he was just committing adultery, which married men are known to do.

The preacher thumping on about the sanctity and primacy of heterosexual marriage who was found to be picking up men on the road? He wasn’t “self-hating” gay, that was a bisexual man. “Preacher talks up married fidelity in sermons, has side pieces” is an old story.

The father in the pews with an intuitive sense that it is both necessary and useful to communicate to humans that same-sex relations are wrong and it’s opposite-sex ones that are right, so that they order their lives properly – that was a bisexual man.


We’ve been here all along, nu?

Q: isn’t framing a common theme of bisexuals as infidelity with the other sex exactly what bisexual women were complaining about circa their 1990s moment in the sun?

A: yes, and that’s funny

It's amusing that comics' two iconic representations of a bisexual man are like John Constantine and Deadpool

You know, Chasing Amy might best be thought of as coming out of the early ‘90s period where we developed a mature account of “homosexual” before we did of “bisexual”. If you understand Alyssa as a bisexual whose lesbian self-conception is important to her '90s “alternative” identity positioning, the possibility of involvement with a man has comprehensible and interesting stakes.
