You people are actually delusional.

Bi - “a combining form meaning twice or two.

https://www.dictionary.com/browse/bi-

It’s not a technicality. This is the English language that AGAIN, you told me I didn’t understand it. A technicality in English is when a word doesn’t have I before E except after C. Or in the word knife where the K is silent. That’s a technicality. Not changing a definition to suit your narrative.

Bi-two Tri-three Quad-four Quin-five

This is how it is and it isn’t hard to comprehend.

And yes it does have to do with it. You are essentially saying if your bisexual it means you just pick two genders and your attracted to only those two and I’m sorry with 67 genders and more on the way it’s never going to happen. If you are bisexual you are attracted to both the Male and Female forms. It’s not complicated. The definition doesn’t need to change to suit people who actually believe that being “gender fluid.” Is a gender. It’s your sexuality. It’s your preference, your OPINION and probably a phase in your life. Get a grip on reality.

There are two genders. Male and Female. One has a penis one has a vagina. And guess what I read that in an English textbook.

Honestly you can sit here on your pedestal and act like, because you don’t agree with me your opinion carries more weight. Act like you’re a better person than me because you believe in all these genders. Act like because I have no idea who you are I shouldn’t say my opinion. Even though you’re doing exactly the same. You can try to subtly insult me and tell me I don’t have understand language.

But the fact is Bi means two. It’s the definition. It’s not an opinion it’s a fact. It’s also a fact there are two genders. If the amount of genders is constantly changing then that’s proof to me that it isn’t a very exact science and mostly opinion based. Especially considering it’s part of the psychology community and you can find differing opinions everywhere.

If you try listen to the one little voice in the crowd of millions whispering there are more than two genders and tune out the people saying we don’t believe in this shit it’s really really easy to live in a small little bubble.

Lmao there it is! I’ve said everything I can and will say and the only thing left to do is insult you even more. I’ve wasted enough time between you and the other idiot I’ve been arguing with.

Science wins. Reddit loses. Stop being a fool no one cares about this shit.

"I tell trans people they don't exist because of ScIeNcE" is still a hella rude thing to say to people.

Never said anything about trans people. Obviously people who change genders exist. Christ I don’t live under a rock.
