Say so long to ‘straight-passing’

CW: bullying, homophobia, homophobic slurs/tropes, violence Straight passing. I’m conflicted. After reading a post by bisexual.org the other week, I’ve been chewing this over again. It isn’t the first time, won’t be the last time. It certainly isn’t a fun thing to have to contemplate, but ultimately, I’m not on board with it. I remember […]
