Happy Holidays
This started out as a "what Christmas means to me" piece. It was bringing even my mood down, and I was the one writing it. Seriously...depressing AF!

Erasing Their Sexuality
A couple of weeks ago, I had a friend admit, “I identify as pan-sexual, but I catch so much flak from bisexuals claiming I’m ‘erasing their sexuality’ that I may just stop saying anything just to avoid further conflict. It is all so exhausting.” So we have bisexuals making a pan-sexual person feel negatively about... Continue Reading →
