Keeley made out with a woman on TV last night and the show tag is full of some of the most mean-spirited bad faith intra-fandom reactions to reactions and it’s so fucking disappointing to me.

Multiple things can be true at the same time?!?!

For the people who are annoyed that the “Keeley’s been bi this whole time” crowd is sad that people are taking the events of 3x5 as the only confirmation of her queerness…consider where that sadness might be coming from. Of course seeing Keeley making out with a woman is something to celebrate! Of course it’s a relief to see Keeley not only talk about attraction to women but actually pursue said attraction before our very eyes! But to say any of the previous textual references to her queerness weren’t good enough is to perpetuate the very same bi erasure that makes it so challenging for many queer people—of many orientations, and especially bi/pan orientations—to be taken seriously. It’s an understandable sadness, being reminded over and over that many fans of a TV show reflect a lot of the “real life” dynamics that make people feel less-than-queer when they’re single, or if they haven’t had same-gender experiences, or if they’re currently dating someone who isn’t same-gender.

For the people who are annoyed that the “Keeley is finally a confirmed queer character with a queer storyline” crowd are erasing the jokes and textual and subtextual queer references that came before…consider where that relief might be coming from. Of course the jokes and references were real and realistic! Of course they were valid parts of Keeley’s story, and would be valid even if she never kissed a woman onscreen! But queer people have been burned so many times by “representation” that never pans out, or feels totally flat and inauthentic, or is performed by people who are suddenly wooden actors who lack chemistry with their same-gender counterpart. It’s an understandable relief to see Keeley unequivocally experiencing real-time attraction to a woman who is available for her to explore that with.

You’re all correct. It’s true that Keeley’s bisexuality is a part of her one hundred percent of the time, including moments when she is literally in the middle of having sex with Roy, and she will always be the first character on Ted Lasso to express overt queer attraction. It’s also true that in a TV landscape in which queer stories are under-delivered and frequently disappoint queer audiences, the events of 3x5 are powerful and significant and add a very important new level to Keeley’s characterization.

I am so grossed out and sad that instead of celebrating a queer character’s decision to pursue a queer hookup (that is ethically complex! and takes place at an emotionally tangled time in her life! and is hot! and fun! and might end badly! and reflects real life in its messiness and hungriness!) for the many, many reasons fans might want to celebrate it, this storyline has become an opportunity for fans to ridicule each other about being fans in the “wrong” way, doing queerness in the “wrong” way, etc. For me personally, I’ve felt like Keeley was canonically bi this entire time and it did my heart good to see her pursue a hookup with another woman. Not everyone will feel the same way about it, and that’s okay.

me, on my way to write yet another slutty bi character even though I know it's bad

Happy bisexuality visibility month! Here's to the canon bisexual in Stranger Things: Vickie!

Here's to the possible canon bisexuals: Mike and Steve!

And here's to Eddie, your bisexuality is probably as canon as it's going to get!

Here's to the possible bisexuals, Max and Lucas! As well as Jonathan! Also, Hopper and Joyce. These are my headcanons, anyway. Oh, and Karen Wheeler.

Remember, it doesn't hurt your headcanon to acknowledge a character's bisexuality. Biphobia is still very rampant, especially amongst this very community where we're supposed to feel safe. If someone tries to tell you that being bisexual is transphobic or does not include non binaries, that person is very ignorant. Also, to remind people that bisexuality and pansexuality are very different. Neither one should replace the other, and yes, you absolutely can be both. So, please educate yourselves during this month of visibility to make this a more welcoming place. Love for all and all for love!

Bisexual girls with a preference for guys deserve love

[merely-a-caricature]

I’m asexual, and I just thought about how interesting some of the parallels between bi people and aces. We’re both oftentimes victims of erasure, and we get told we don’t actually exist.

People will say to bisexuals that they’re just confused, that being bi is just going to lead to being gay, they’re going to pick a side. All girls are a little bi, right? People will just go on about how you can’t be bi cause of this or that. You’re in het relationship, so you can’t be bi, or there’s some hidden motive. I mean, aren’t all people demisexual when you think about (they’re not).

People say aces are just scared, have trauma, are confused, or too young, something is broken etc. They’ll say we’re delusional, how could they not feel sexual attraction? If they do feel some sexual attraction (like demis, frays), then maybe you’re not really asexual. Or you’re just being celibate. Eventually you’ll like sex.

It’s just interesting to see how similar the struggles we face often have similar foundations. It’s pretty much the same argument but dressed up a bit differently.

I’m ace not bi so feel free to correct me on any of the stuff regarding bisexuality and things people will say and the stuff bi people face.

Enhypen as questionably gay things I have said to my gf

Heeseung - Babe have you seen my hoodie? You know the one you let me borrow before I realised I actually wanted the owner of the hoodie instead? (I said this at my dorm and i kid you not she slapped me)

Jay - Should we get the rainbow ice-cream so that society knows we are gay and accepts us instead of being Hitler and telling us we are assholes. (Alright look. I was very burnt out and I just wrote a history essay so yeah. Gf was very impressed tho)

Jake - Dude I think I'm hella gay for you (I said this at a party when I was drunk as fuck. There's a video of me saying it and it's so funny because that night was her birthday)

Sunghoon - I don't know if I wanna be Wonyoung or be with Wonyoung (this was in my Wonyoung phase where I just thirsted over her and my gf didn't talk to me until I bought her a muffin)

Sunoo - Dude George Clooney is so hot. His wife's even hotter. (Look they are the ORIGINAL mommy and daddy ok? I would thank them if they stepped on me)

[going2hell4everythingbutbeingbi]

hanging out with straight men who don't know you also like women is such a funny experience. they're fist bumping to margot robbie's tits and I'm stuck larping as a straight girl who finds this Weird instead of completely relatable

[i-love-dopamine]

My dads being biphobic he knows im bi and hes making me sit straight

[kermit-the-hag]

I should have realised I wasn’t straight when I got a crush on the girl who played Puck in my all-girls catholic high school’s production of A Midsummer Night’s Dream. Girl winked at me once while interacting with the audience and it was all over for me. I blame my english teacher for letting us attend the dress rehearsal.
