Help! I have a story in my head about lgbt activist history that goes: it started out as bi, queer, sex worker, fluid, random social rights etc. but eventually that seemed "too confusing" and the narrative zeroed down to "gay is ok". Where did I read this? #bisexual

Stonewall riots (initiating modern movement) began with the dregs. Respectable gays got involved only later.pic.twitter.com/h5rn54ZuSB

So it was definitely a bi book which had this story, a bisexual manifesto and an explanation of how when it became a “gay” message it threw bis, drag queens, trans people, sex workers etc under the bus

in broad strokes the transvestites/transsexuals were rather famously drummed out of the political movement by the lesbians in the 1970s

I’m trying to write something so looking for refs. Maybe I should just not do that and go full “it’s true because I say so”
