I like to shop sometimes but don't drag me along on your endless sprees at the mall. I care about the way I look but I won't spend half an hour getting ready. I can tell you how I think you look in your new clothes but stop expecting me to have some magical fashion gene inside me. Just because I like fruity drinks and Smirnoff Ice, doesn't mean I like your apple martinis or Bloody Marys. I can be handy with simple arts and crafts but don't expect me to sew or build a gingerbread house with you. Sorry if I appear to be too straight or gay for your preconceived notions. Stop judging me and placing me in a convenient little box.
End rant.
People (mostly straight folks) tend not to believe that I'm into guys at all because I'm "too boyish" and "obviously a lesbian."
But this reminds me of another one I hate.
People who use us bis as "proof" that you can choose your sexuality. "Oh you're with a man now, so you're straight now." "Oh now you're with a girl so you're gay again." Actually, no, I have been bi the whole time, asshat. -.-
