However this strikes me as potentially incorrect? Surely there have been non-binary and trans bisexual people around longer than the last few years.

I found this to be a pretty hurtful thing to read, especially from someone who I respect. I don’t know them personally but I always liked reading their thoughts.

Yes, trans and non-binary bi folks have existed more than the past few years. A lot of bi folks use the definition “attracted to two or more genders.” Some stick with attracted to men/women but that would include trans people. Many also use a definition similar to pansexuality.
-
Yes that is the definition I use (two or more) but this person is saying this is a recent change from its traditional meaning? Idk if that is true though.

Trans and non-binary folks are bi. They’ve been key figures in the LGBT movement since the beginning. In my experience, folks who say this don’t bother to actually learn about bi people who what the sexuality is. A lot of bi folks use the definition “attracted to two genders”
-
I agree with you, but this person thinks that this definition of bisexual is recent.

Not “attracted to men and women.” I’ve seen people use “attracted to two or more genders as well.” The folks who say “bisexuality is the attraction to men and women” tend not to be bi themselves, in my experience.
-
Yeah this person isn’t bi but for the reason that apparently when she was younger it was based on the gender binary and those who argue against it are ignoring this fact. Idk if that is actually true, seems to erase the existence of non-binary bisexual people.
