- How sexual fluidity differs from bisexuality
- Sexual fluidity: a lie or a truth?
I’ve always considered it as a lie, this is a confession. We may mix up sexual fluidity with bisexuality, but according to the studies collected by Pink News, the two are different and convey different definitions.
Personally. I did not believe it back then. I found it as an excuse to not completely outing yourself from the closet. It’s like the phase where you are still confused whether you are gay or not. But through the years, with some guidance of studies and experiences, sexual fluidity exists.
Non-label
As they would put it, they have no gender but their sexuality is mostly fluid if you know what I mean.
Since the studies suggest that it happens often with women, a research in 2008 was quoted, “Women should always be encouraged to have an open dialogue with their healthcare providers about a wide array of health concerns and also feel comfortable in discussing any lifestyle changes,” executive director Dr. JoAnn Pinkertonn of NAMS.
Studies also clarified that bisexuality is ‘a heightened capacity for sexual fluidity’, and it best describes what kind of sexuality is that.
Biphobia?
When the term ‘sexually fluid’ came up, Bisexual activists take a toll by pointing out that most of the debates are adding to the bi-erasing culture we have now. The fire even ignited more when media attention caused more trouble by making celebrities look fashionable because of their fluidity when it comes to their sexuality.
Worries still plague the community as it could affect the harmonious relationship of gay people and bisexuals. But fret not, it will not.
To top this all off, yes, sexual fluidity is not a lie.
