It seems almost ridiculous that in this day and age someone still need to defend being bisexual form those who refuse to believe it’s possible to be attracted to people of both genders, but Anna Paquin obviously feels there’s a reason to.
After having first talked about her bisexuality in a PSA in 2009, she’s recently told Zooey magazine, “I’m sure for some people saying they’re bisexual feels less scary than making a statement that they’re gay. ‘or me, it’s not really an issue because I’m someone who believes being bisexual is actually a thing.
“It’s not made up. It’s not a lack of decision. It’s not being greedy or numerous other ignorant things I’ve heard at this point. For a bisexual, it’s not about gender. That’s not the deciding factor for who they’re attracted to.”
I’ve often thought those who refuse to believe in bisexuality either have a lack of imagination simply because they can’t imagine themselves being attracted to both genders, or they’ve had bad experiences with someone who was bisexual and generalised from there. However as Anna says, it is ‘a thing’.
