If I knew about that other board, I'd have weighed in my $19.20, but since I didn't....
People have all sorts of arbitrary rules set up as far as who they will and won't date. It's just as prejudicial for a lesbian to say that she won't date bisexuals as it is for str8 folks.
But it's your world, you have to live in it, not me.
Peace!

Allow me to clarify. Simply put I have high standards. A heterosexual man that cheats on me with a passel of women, or even one woman will get put to the curb like Thursday's trash. I expect EVERY man I date to be faithful to me. I also expect every man I date to be heterosexual. If I find out the man I am currently dating is bisexual, I'm not going to say "OK, well he HAS been faithful to me, he IS a good person. So I guess we can stay together". NOT! There are plenty of respectful, faithful, hetersosexual men out there and many of them can't be with me either. He must meet ALL of my qualifications. Bisexuality, is means for immediate and permanent dismissal. What is it that greeks say? "Just because you meet the minimum qualifications, doesn't guarantee you will be offered membership"? "Membership has its privileges"? "By nature, our organizations are discriminatory"? OK, I'm discriminatory too. Just because a man is faithful to me doesn't guarantee that we will stay together, bisexual or not.
Also, I found this interesting. A lesbian said on another sorority's board that she is only interested in lesbian women, no bisexuals. Noone even batted an eyelash. But when a heterosexual woman says she only wants a heterosexual man, no bisexuals, people automatically think HOMOPHOBE. Why is that?
