Does bisexuality exist?
Position‹2 of 2

No, bisexuality doesn't exist

This position argues that bisexuality does not exist as a distinct orientation. It holds that those who identify as bisexual are really another sexuality—claiming the label masks homosexuality or seeks attention—a view widely rejected by researchers and LGBTQ advocates.

  1. The bisexual label is a cry for attention
    In many circles, being bisexual is considered trendy and desirable. Therefore, many people claiming to be bisexual may be lying to attract this image and attention.
  2. Many people use the bisexual label as a mask for homosexuality
    Before coming out as gay or lesbian, many people call themselves bisexual. Bisexuals are actually homosexuals lying to lessen the stigma and discrimination towards their true identity.
