While I support people to find what ever relationship makes them happy, choosing a relationship type based on “that other group must suck” sounds like a horrible way to be.
You want to be in a poly bi relationship great, go do you. But being like “I choose this because the others must be worst.” seems toxic and hurtful.
Kinda…im suggesting people should love the person they love because they love them, not that they hate other people.
Also ironically there is nothing in screenshot to say “straight” maybe it’s two gay guys and one of their nicknames is princess or two women… No way to know based on the screenshot
I was just being sarcastic. All of the “are the straights okay” memes are just examples of various problematic behaviors and traits that exist across the spectrums of sexuality and gender but for some reason LGBTQ folks love to act like they’re exclusively cishet problems.
Some of the most jealous people I’ve ever dated have been poly, the difference is they feel like they shouldn’t be so they’re in denial about it.call it other things.
At least mono people will just say “I’m jealous”. Listening to another jealousy-adjacent complaint about some shit for the fifth time in a week is exhausting.
This isn’t the case with all poly people obviously but every orientation has problems.
so my doubles tennis partner and i, back then two straight teenage boys, were terrible at tennis. we decided our strategy then was to get into the other team’s heads. we called each other muffin and princess (i forget who was who. i think I was muffin? it’s been so long i’ll have to ask princess. or muffin. fuck.) and we’d make sound effects every time anyone hit the ball. honestly we had so much fun fucking around when we finally won a game (it took us a few years) we were shocked.

Are you suggesting that jealousy and insecurity aren’t unique to straight people? /s

True and I got that. Everyone can be a good person or an evil person, regardless of what’s in your pants or who’s in your pants
