I came out as bisexual to my family 7 months ago, and I am so very grateful that my parents are supportive. The thing is, I keep having to explain to my younger siblings that I like both genders and when I date the same gender I won't become gay or straight. Specifically to my 10-year-old sister. I don't know if this is just from lack of exposure to bisexuality, but I really don't like having to explain that if I eventually marry a man I won't become straight. It was a fear that I would be rejected by the LGBTQ+ community before this, it's just making me more worried and sad that I have the chance to be no longer accepted by the queer community when I date someone of the opposite sex. I was wondering if there was a way to explain this so my 10 and 8 year old siblings would understand that I like more than one gender. Thank you, Lilly
