is there a "bi culture"?
is there a "bi culture"?
I want to affirm my bisexuality in small ways from the closet. How can I of this?
Unrelated but soon I have Bible study :(

Meme wise? Garlic bread, frogs, and sitting in chairs the wrong way.
Real world culture? Maybe watching some David Bowie documentaries, he might be the most famous bisexual that I know of. But he's also not the definition of what bisexual is. It's more of a spectrum in and of itself, as it manifests differently for each individual. Like for me, I'm bisexual but in a monogamous relationship which would not work for other bisexuals and that's okay. Explore yourself to find what bisexuality means to you.
Real talk, meditation helped me discover myself and what my gender/sexuality meant to me. Just being with myself, my inner thoughts, and listening. I know that meditation doesn't necessarily work for everyone though, so you may need to find another way to explore yourself. But that's what worked for me so just sharing my method.
I wish you luck in your journey of self discovery, happy to help where I can even if our journeys aren't identical 😊

I thought garlic bread is for the asexuals and we have lemon bars.
But yeah, I feel like most bi culture is memes: sitting in chairs as mentioned, cuffed jeans, finger guns, the bisexual bob and many many more. But as it is with memes, they also change depending on the specific community. But I feel like we are pretty good with memes :D
But on a more serious note: Bisexuality has a long history. I think it's really interesting and I really enjoy diving in. Also being happy about every good representation, but that's queer culture in general I imagine.

Idk I've heard garlic bread used in a lot of communities from trans, asexual, to pan and bi. I don't think I've ever heard/seen the lemon bar memes though. 🤷

You're right and I probably should've gone into a longer list of celebrities to look into for different perspectives on bisexuality than just David Bowie. He's just the first pop culture reference that personally comes to my mind. It goes all the way through history though. Ancient Greece, Rome, Japan, and China all have records talking about the practice of bisexuality in that society (even if they called it by another name). Then in more recent memory there's Bill Beasley, of course, Alan Rockway, and many more names that you can find digging deeper into bisexuality's more modern history... I'm on mobile so linking directly is kind of a pain 😅
Garlic bread is awesome. So I understand that it's so popular. And the lemon bar meme originates from reddit.
And yes, the list can get pretty long. There is so much to learn and so many awesome bisexuals in past and present. I mean...we have Julie D’Aubigny, our Sword-Fighting 17th-Century Opera Star bicon :D And to anyone interested in bisexuality or bisexual people through out the history, I can recommend the podcast Life Of Bi.
