"What are your thoughts on bisexual erasure? I'm a bisexual woman who married a cisgender man and I don't feel comfortable speaking out as a member of the LGBTQA community any more. Is my voice still valid within the community or, because I can 'pass', am I now considered just an ally?
Should I be more vocal? I try to be honest with those around me (my husband obviously knows), including some coworkers when the topic is broached. My conservative family though, doesn't 'know'. I came out confused and scared at 13 and they basically pretended it never happened. I think they assumed that because I married a man, my 'coming out' was just a phase and breathed a big sigh of relief. With the world as it is, I feel like I need to remind them of who I am...which is difficult to admit even at 32."
