Thanks, that was an interesting read. Especially the history part as it just shows how it's not a new thing.

I'm working mostly from home, but when I'm in the office I will always wear some kind of pride shirt this month. Otherwise there is not that much happening, at least in RL. We do not have Pride here, "only" Christopher Street Day but that's in July. But I plan to attend there (it's more like a demo, not a parade). Maybe I will finally get in contact with the local queer community. I'm not very social, so I don't like to attend events alone. But pride month might give me a little push :)
I love it. Video is also as ridiculous as expected. Whatever these guys do, it's just fun. I saw them live this year and it's just an awesome metal party with crazy costumes and what not.
That's some good news. So happy for them :) I hope more will follow.
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.
It's a real thing and it's also used as a joke. Not everyone experiences it. Attraction to the different genders can change. For some time attraction might even vanish. It often comes in form of cycles.
It can be really challenging for some, as there is already the misconception that bisexuality is just a phase. So if the cycle is very long, like some months, one might start to question if they are really bisexual because they are currently only attracted to a specific gender.
So using the meme of bicycle is a good way to be aware that it can happen and does not mean one is not bisexual. Just a to bond in the community.
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.
