Okay, I’m gonna break this down once and once only because I’m very tired and watching this discourse is driving me bonkers.
It is biphobic to tell someone that they’re not really bi because they’re in a relationship with someone of the opposite gender. Bi people are no less bi for dating someone of the opposite gender. And bi characters are also no less bi for dating someone of the opposite gender, HOWEVER -
It is NOT biophobic to critique the way that this is done in a work of fiction. Characters are not real people, and there is a history of bi characters in mainstream media being portrayed via certain stereotypes:
hypersexual cheaters
they say they’re bi (or they “don’t like labels” but that’s a whole other can of worms) once, and then the source material never touches the subject again, allowing a straight audience to ignore it
And people - mostly bi people, from what I’ve seen - saying “hey, this kind of feels like they’re just going to brush [character]’s bisexuality under the rug, and we’d like to see better rep” is not biphobic! Saying “this relationship that they’re pushing feels weird to me and I don’t like it” is not biphobic! Saying “hey, it seems like by having this character state once that they’re bi and then end up with a woman and never touch on the subject again, the company is trying to have their cake and eat it too, trying to pander to LGBT viewers without also losing their homophobic audience, and while it’s a start it’s also not really enough, especially given the genuine progress coming from much smaller creators” is not biphobic!
People are allowed to express their bisexuality however they see fit. Characters, especially those coming from a large media franchise, are subject to critiques that real people are not. This is basic shit, guys. Come on.
#emubops life#like obviously there are biphobic ways to critique representation but acting like thats the entirety of the convo is disingenuous tbh#yes this is about marvels loki but its applicable elsewhere too i feel#(also while im on the subject can we please keep our expectations realistic for marvel)#(like yes i would love to see loki smooch owen wilson but is that likely to happen? no not really)#(the confirmation that loki is bi was honestly more than i expected from them)#(not saying we shouldnt push for more and better rep! but marvel has a pattern of behavior wrt lgbt rep that would be dumb to ignore)#(also also - on the subject of the loki series - we still have 2 eps left so obvi things are still subject to change)#and this is all coming from a bi person so this is very much my convo to have#other bi/pan ppl feel free to chime in if you want#if youre not attracted to more than one gender tho maybe sit this one out#like reblogs are fine just. dont say shit when you dont need to

The puppy seems restless. Hm, I think, better take him outside and see if he needs to go to the bathroom. I take him to the backyard, he doesn’t go. I bring him back in. He continues to be restless. He proceeds to pee on the kitchen rug. Okay, I think, that’s my bad, I didn’t leave you outside for long enough, and maybe you’re more used to going in the front yard. I take him out to the front yard to see if he still has to go, and he tries to make a run for it, almost getting to the end of the driveway before I catch him and put him in the grass. After a couple minutes, he goes pee again, and I praise him and go to head inside. He makes another break for it. I grab him. He makes a third break for it. I grab him and bring him inside. I put him in his gated off “puppy zone” and go to try and find cleaning supplies for the rug; almost as soon as I’m out of sight, he starts crying. He hates being alone. I decide to sit next to puppy zone until he calms down and goes to sleep, and then clean up the rug. He doesn’t calm down, even when I refill his food dish - in fact, he starts howling. I remember my dad saying something about how he howls and circles when he needs to go out to poop, so once again, I decide to take him outside. To the backyard because I am not dealing with runaway puppy again. We go out, and it takes him several minutes to remember that he has to go, but he poops. Great. I take him back inside, and try to get him back in puppy zone, but he’s sniffing the carpeted stairs in a way that has me suspicious he still has to go, so back out to the backyard. Turns out he didn’t have to go potty again, he was just very energetic and wanted to explore.
Finally, after nearly an hour of this back and forth nonsense, I get him back up to puppy zone, where he promptly flops down and goes to sleep without any hesitation. And yes, I could start cleaning now, but I’m worried I’d wake him up and he JUST nodded off.
Otis, I love you, but you are a full time job 😂
#emubops life#anyway puppy has a name now! its otis#hes a handful but we love him#also im very new at this puppy training thing. we got our last dog when i was like 13 and i didnt play a big role in training him#so im definitely making mistakes but im learning as i go#and like. i just have to look at him and know its all worth it. hes worth every bit of effort#oh also!! his tag is gonna be ‘otis the portie’ fyi#at some point im gonna go back and tag my old dog as ‘dewey the doodle’ but im almost exclusively on mobile so that might take a while lmao#otis the portie
