Hello, Im Bisexual Girl. Recently I Realized I Have Some Internalized Homophobia. I'm Fully Awared That

Hello, Im bisexual girl. Recently I realized I have some internalized homophobia. I'm fully awared that I'm attracted to both men and women ans have no problems with that. However I've seen so many biphobia everywhere, especially in lgbt community (oddly enought, but Ive seen it there much more often than among straight people), like every time lesbians don't wanna date bi women, or when they assume all wlw as lesbians, or, even if we take the fandoms, when there is an implied bi or even a wlm character, they will call her lesbian, not bi. It always annoyed me so much, that recently I catched myself on thinking I would be much happier if one of the bi-implied characters (Ochako from mha) will end up with a boy and not a girl, so they stopped calling her lesbian

And then I realized that I thought about such things many times, that now I would rather see a bi girl to be considered straight, than homosexual

I don't wanna be homophobic, since It's my own community and I wanna be a part of this, even tho It's hard for me when they ignore bisexuality like this. Both opposites are bad and Im so tried of it. I always wanted people to treat everyone equally, especially in lgbt community, but know I find that Im closer to straight or even homophobic people, than to lgbt and I don't like it. I want to change my way of thinking about it, but I don't know how to change it.

Could you give me some advises or may be tell about your own experience, if you had something similar, or just anything? Because I feel so lonely because of this

I’m sorry, first of all. Second, they way I got over my internalization and the wishing I was straight was realizing that no one else controls who I am, and what my identity is but me.

If anyone else wants to share, please do!!

Wheres all that so called bihet privilege were supposed to have? That “hetero passing” privilege?  

I hate that people keep insisting that Kristen Stewart is a lesbian even though she's flat out said she's bisexual, that she sees sexuality as grey and fluid, that she's not strictly homosexual or heterosexual, and that she would definitely date a guy again; like the list goes on. I think it's the fact that she's also so visibly gnc and people still can't concieve that bisexuality isn't just gay lite? Like as much as she may "look" like a lesbian, she's a gnc bi woman and I think it's cool that there's that kind of rep bc a lot of the bi women the media puts in the spot light are mostly high fem. That doesn't mean that rep is meaningless but I can count on one hand the amount of andro/masc leaning bi women that are in the public eye.

I also know the other reason why a lot of people keep labeling her as a lesbian is because she's visibly only been dating women recently, but you don't have to switch the gender of your s/o every other month to prove you're still bi like. That's elementary basics of bisexuality. Especially if said person in question, again, has stated several times that they're not a lesbian or straight... 🤔
