‘I think it’s really weird that some people don’t think that bisexuals exist’

‘I think it’s really weird that some people don’t think that bisexuals exist’

Rachel is bisexual, and for the first time, she was confronted with an issue that has plagued people like her for a long time: biphobia.

“I hear that’s that’s a big problem in the queer community, not accepting bisexuals, but that was the first time I’ve experienced it. And it didn’t hurt my feelings … but I think it’s really weird that some people don’t think that bisexuals exist, because we do.”

Rachel tells here story:

“I’m from Driftwood,” a collection of “lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender and queer stories from all over the world,” appears weekends on LGBTQ Nation. For more true LGBT stories, or to share your own, visit “I’m from Driftwood.”
