Voice of A Bisexual Woman

Honestly I can’t really say I came out because I never felt like I was in? I’ve liked girls since 2nd grade, boys around 5th or 6th grade. I liked girls first, I didn’t think it was a big deal,lesbian was ok for me. I remember learning the term bisexual in 6th grade and saying that was what I was, which I still am now. I wasn’t confused, I wasn’t raised to believe in heteronormative, I wasn’t “brainwashed straight” at a young age. I was around TV shows with straight couples, and family and family friends who were straight, but I didn’t process that as the norm. To me, the norm was that’s who they love. I knew that girls could like girls, boys could like boys, or any can like any. I knew since I was 7. Hell I knew I was trans when I was that young. I didn’t like the term tomboy because it felt like an insult. That I acted like a boy because that’s what I felt I was, but they still say I’m a girl. It was an insult to me that they would be so ignorant to keep claiming I’m a girl and “just being a tomboy” when I wanted everyone to think of me as who I was inside, not outside. I was also around a very homophobic father and an “I don’t care as long as they keep it to themselves and know what they’re getting into” mother and sister. My father dismissed the fact I’ve known since I was 7 and doesn’t want me dead for being open about it. My mother just hopes I’m happy though she prefers I marry a man. My sister doesn’t care because it’s not her place to meddle in. I’ve learned to ignore them all and keep to myself, especially my dad. So I guess I never really was in, because I never felt like I had to come out. I was never scared to openly admit it, I suppose. I hope other kids and teens grow up feeling the same, not feeling scared to be themselves, and never being afraid of people judging them, especially their own parents/family. I hope kids and teens grow up with understanding parents so that when they do openly say what they are, they don’t feel scared about being disowned or dismissed as confusion. That the parent understands that’s just who they are, even if they disagree with it, and all they ask is your acceptance. It’s a long way to go until that day will come.
