One reason was probably because, as a bisexual person, it always felt like Pride, and identity flags, and fabulous queer communities weren’t for me. I had always felt like an ally, not a community member. Had I known about bi history I would have thought about this very differently. I would have known that there was space for me, that this wasn’t just an event that was inclusive of bisexual people, but that bisexual people are key to the event’s very existence.
