Comment on why do some straight people deny their loved ones’ homosexuality? (keyword: SOME)
LibertyLizard@slrpnk.net 1 week agoIronic because bi is the largest demographic but also the one that can blend in the easiest which hasn’t forced people to advocate for acceptance.

And is also a spectrum. Most people would probably be bi, if social pressure didn’t exist. It’s honestly weird to think that anyone would be 100.00% gay or straight.

If you think about it enough you realize that the labels aren’t perfect and sexuality isn’t split into neat labellable categories

And on top of that, it’s malleable, changeable.

100%? No. When you put people in situations where they’re entirely segregated by the sex they were assigned at birth, people tend to take same-sex partners even though they would not consider themselves to be gay or bisexual. On the other hand, my guess is that most people probably round up; e.g., if it’s very, very rare for them to be interested in someone that’s the same gender, they probably think of themselves as being straight.
