Let's just get it all out of the way, shall we?

1) Polyamory is better and purer than monogamy.
2) Deep down, everyone's really bisexual.
3) Meat is murder.
4) Jesus is the One True Way(tm); after all, it says so right here, in English, in my Bible.
5) Liberals just want to tax and spend, and they don't care if terrorists kill us all dead!


Please, Universe, save me from fundamentalists of any stripe, wouldja?

2a. Deep down, everyone's really bisexual.
2b. Deep down, every bisexual is really just too chicken to give up het privilege.

6. Of course you have penis envy/an Oedipus complex/an Electra complex. You're just repressing it, which proves that it's really bad.

7a. Only snobs don't watch TV/follow sports.
7b. Only idiots watch TV/follow sports.

2b is actually true about some bisexuals.

Sure it is. And some meat really is murder, and some polyamory is better than monogamy for the people involved. I'm personally infuriated by the straight couples who figure that an FMF threesome cannot possibly entail any emotional consequences, because *of course* the girls are just there to turn the guy on more, and that any lesbian or bisexual woman would be thrilled to hop in bed with them. I have spoken passionately and in public about the attitude that same sex-relationships (especially lesbian ones) don't count -- hell, take a look at my LJ.

But I am also bisexual, and so is my female lover. She is married, but neither she nor I considers our relationship some kind of fantasy icing on the cake of relationships with people whose penises are original equipment instead of aftermarket. The reason I don't just go over to the Dyke Side, much as I love and need women, much as I value female culture, much as my life is really built around women -- is that I also love a man. And I refuse to pretend that I don't, any more than I will refuse to pretend that I don't love a woman.

I will not deny my own reality. And that reality is bisexual.
