insisting that bisexual people can only be attracted to two genders and that only polysexual and pansexual people can be attracted to some and all genders means that you have a fundamentally flawed definition of bisexuality, it also means that you are willing to dismiss bisexual history and the activists who have fought for us. most bisexual people are attracted to all genders and bisexuality have always included people who like all genders and some genders.
having the mindset that bisexual, polysexual and pansexual people ALWAYS have to be different is extremely harmful to the bisexual community and forces us to either change labels or to conform to the restrictive straight people definition of bisexuality: just two genders
yes, bisexual, polysexual and pansexual can co-exist. use whatever label you want. but please for the love of god stop using biphobic rhetoric to put poly- and pansexuality (especially pansexuality) up on a pedestal because it’s constantly used to harm bi people and our community
Bi means two so actually it’s correct to assume that bisexual people just like two genders. If you like all genders or more than two, technically you aren’t bisexual. But you can identify as whatever you like sooooo….
Nope, that’s actually an etymological fallacy. Bisexuality has actually referred to attraction to ‘two or more genders’ or ‘more than one gender’ for decades and the claim that bisexuality is just ‘two’ is a lie that was pushed by straight people to ignore bisexual history and the way bisexual people define their own identity.
I highly suggest you research actual bisexual history and see what our community was built on. The Bisexual Manifesto (1990) is a really good example of this.
