i’m so angry rn one of my friends was rejected for a voluntary position at an lgbt+ branch of the mental health charity mind essentially bc she wasn’t ‘lgbt’ enough. she’s bisexual but she’s only had one serious relationship which happened to be a guy (who she is currently still with). the interviewer was asking her a lot of invasive questions about her romantic and sexual history and then said ‘she wanted her clients to feel safe and that they can properly relate to staff’… well i can say for sure that your BISEXUAL ‘clients’ aren’t going to feel safe if this is your fucking attitude. 

Ugh. This is what I worry about when I want to be a doctor for an LGBT focused health center. I’m bi and I’ve never been in a relationship before but that shouldn’t overshadow my experience with my lgbt related volunteering/courses that I’ve completed.

it also shouldn’t overshadow the fact that you are bisexual and you do belong in the community. the idea that a bi person has to pass some sort of ‘gay enough’ test is complete and utter bullshit

Also, do they give the same shit to LGBT people who’ve never had any relationships at  all? Because that’s ridiculously harmful. It’s telling them that their orientation is only valid if they have a history to match. Ugh.
