10 Questions To Never Ask A Bisexual
Maya Lopez

As someone who is bisexual, I get asked a lot of (really dumb) questions. Never ask any of these to a bisexual. It could end badly.

1. Have you ever had a threesome?

No. Just because I like two different genders, doesn't mean I'm willing to go to bed with both at once. Not to throw shade at people who do, but it is completely wrong to just assume that because I'm bi I'm always down for a threesome.

2. Which gender do you like better?

Honestly, any gender that isn't you right now. I don't have a preference, I like who I like, just like you do.

3. Why don't you just date the opposite gender so you can be normal since you can choose?

No, you can't choose who you like or love, and it's offensive that you'd consider straight people "normal". Nothing is normal. You aren't normal. Stop being homophobic.

4. Aren't you just trying to hide the fact that you're just really, really gay?

No, I'm not. I'm not gay. I'm not straight. I'm fricking bisexual, it's a thing, and you're pissing me off by not recognizing my sexuality as a reality.

5. Wait, so does that mean you're hitting on me?

Whenever you talk to the opposite gender, are you always hitting on them? Just because I like both girls and boys doesn't mean that whenever I talk to one or the other that I'm automatically hitting on them. I'm just being a friendly, kind human being who you could learn from. Get over yourself.

6. Don't you think you're a little bit greedy, snatching up all the hot people and leaving none for the rest of us?

Oh yeah, I'm so greedy. I have a secret storage unit filled with gloriously hot people whom I keep prisoner. Really dude? PEOPLE ARE NOT PROPERTY. Maybe that's why you're single.

7. Why can't you just make a decision between the two already?

My decision is to stop talking to you so I can calm down long enough not to punch you in the eyeball, because clearly it's broken and can't see what's right in front of it. I'M BISEXUAL. It's not a fricking choice. Did you make a decision to like the gender you like? I didn't think so.

8. Why do you get to have all the fun?

Yes, it is definitely fun. In no way does it involve sitting on the couch alone drinking tea and wishing you could date every single flipping movie star on television.

9. But I thought bisexuality didn't exist?

Hi. Standing right here. Now you know, bisexuality exists and needs to be recognized.

10. Don't you have a lot of sex?

Totally, because I'm attracted to everything that moves and I can't help but sleep around. No. Don't judge my character on my sexuality, they are two completely different things. Open a book some time. It helps.

Today I started my third week of college at Minnesota State Moorhead. I have survived welcome week, finding my classes on the first day, and being an awkward loner in the dining hall. Even though I have yet to be here for a month, I have already experienced many thoughts and problems that only a new college student can relate to.

"Make sure to get involved when you're in college!"

We've all heard some variation of this phrase, whether it came from parents, other family members, friends, RAs, or college-related articles. And, like many clichés, it's true for the most part. Getting involved during your college years can help you make friends, build your resume, and feel connected to your campus. However, these commitments can get stressful if you're dealing with personal issues, need to work, or aren't sure how to balance classes and everything else going on during the semester.

In college, one of the essential things to have is friends. Yes, textbooks, a laptop, and other school supplies are important but friends are essential. Friends are that support system everybody needs. The more friends you have the better the support system you have. But you also have someone to share experiences with. And don’t settle for just one or two friends because 8 out of 10 times they are busy and you are studying all alone. Or they have other friend groups that do not include you. Don’t settle for just one or two friends; make as many friends as you can. After the first couple of weeks of college, most friend groups are set and you may be without friends.

For a moment your world is spinning. The phone alarm has just scared you awake and you’re flooded by daunting thoughts of the day ahead. You have three assignments due and little time to work on them because of your job. You’re running late because you’ve hit snooze one to many times after yesterday’s long hours. You dizzily reach for a hoodie, craving its comfort, and rush for a speedy exit, praying you will have time to pick up coffee. Does this sound familiar?

Finals week is upon us. It is a magical time of year during which college students everywhere flock to the library in attempt to learn a semester's worth of knowledge in only a week.
