as someone who has been a fan since ocean eyes came out, people took the idea of her being for the girls and ran with it without thinking about the fact that she’s bi and now they’re accusing her of queerbaiting when she isn’t. people will be mad over anything esp over a life that isn’t theirs. these people don’t know her but they’re too parasocial to realize that.
it drives me insane because yes! bi people do exist! they are real, they are valid! the biphobia is disgusting. it’s always “acceptance” until it’s someone bi. or in other situations when someone realizes they’re something different from what they originally thought. sexuality can change! the whole point of exploring it is figuring out you!!! and again “acceptance” until someone realizes “wait! maybe this isn’t quite right for me”
Pretty much. They got mad a while back for her lost cause music video saying she was queerbaiting. But we didn’t even know her sexuality back then so like how would anyone even know if she is. I also looked into the word and I guess queerbaiting doesn’t even apply to individuals it’s more towards businesses and marketing tactics not actual beings. But yeah they’re just gonna be mad at everything. Sadly that’s how people work now
