    One misconception I hear often is that bisexuality means being “confused” or “going through a phase.” In reality, many bisexual people have a very clear understanding of their identity.
    What’s the most common misconception you’ve personally encountered?

    One thing I’ve noticed quite often is that people assume bisexuality is just a “phase” or that you’re still figuring things out.

    But for many people, it’s actually a clear and stable part of who they are — not confusion at all.

    Another one I hear a lot is that being bisexual means you can’t be loyal or monogamous, which really isn’t true.

    I think a lot of these misconceptions come from people trying to fit bisexuality into a very “either/or” way of thinking.

    What’s a misconception that really annoyed or surprised you?

    It’s interesting how many of these misconceptions still exist…

    Sometimes people don’t even realize how harmful they can be.

    What’s one that you still hear today?

    One thing I’ve noticed a lot is people assuming it’s “just a phase” or that you have to eventually “choose a side.”

    That mindset can really mess with your confidence, especially when you’re still figuring things out yourself.

    I think a lot of people don’t realize how real and stable bisexuality actually is.

    Curious what others have experienced — have you had similar reactions from people?
