It’s Okay To Be Loudly Bisexual and Monogamous
The idea that one can't/shouldn't be loud and proud about being bisexual in a monogamous relationship without it being viewed as cheating comes from the harmful mononormative belief that your sexuality is defined by your relationship and owned by your partner.
It's one of the many reasons I'm polyamorous - I refuse to be defined by my relationships. My bisexuality exists independent from the gender(s) of the partners I happen to be dating at any given time, and I find that extremely empowering.
As a proud bisexual, polyamory is how I *personally* express my bisexuality. My sexuality is my own, and I defy easy categorisations of gender and sexuality by being completely unpredictable in who I choose to pursue. Not all bisexuals are non-monogamous, obviously, but many polyamorous people are bi and that is no coincidence! 🌈
