ELI5: Explain Like I'm 5

Media portrayals of bisexuality

Okay kiddo, do you know what bisexuality means? It means that a person likes both boys and girls. But sometimes in movies or on TV, they only show bisexuality in a certain way. They might show a girl kissing another girl just to get attention from boys or they might make a guy who likes both boys and girls seem like a bad guy. This is not fair because bisexuality is a real thing and it’s not just something that people do to get attention. It’s important to show bisexuality in a good way so that people who are bisexual know that they are okay and they are not alone.
