谣言终结者:关于双性恋你不知道的五件事
英语课
1. MYTH: Bisexuality Is Just "Experimenting".
谬论一:双性恋者只是在“试验”其性向。
To be bisexual does not inherently imply a state of flux 1 or "figuring yourself out." There is no magic formula that will ever force a bi person to lean in one particular direction more strongly than another. To imply bisexual people are just experimenting is to undermine their identity entirely 2 and invalidate their understanding of who they are.
双性向的本质反映出来并非是一种变化或“寻找自身”的状态。能迫使一位双性恋更倾向于某一性向的魔法配方根本不存在。“双性恋者只是在试验其性向”的暗示其实彻底削弱了他们的身份认同感,并驳倒其对自身的理解。
2. MYTH: Bisexuality Is Greedy.
谬论二:双性向者性贪。
What is greedy about love and attraction? Don't we all experience it? How can it be greed if it exists so abundantly in the world?
什么会贪图爱与魅惑?它难道不是我们都体验过的吗?倘若这个世界充满着爱与魅惑,那它又怎能被称为贪欲呢?
3. MYTH: Bisexual People Are More Likely To Cheat On You.
谬论三:双性恋者更有可能对你不忠。
That you're dating someone who is into more than one gender 3 doesn't mean they are more likely to go out and pursue everyone. The definition of monogamy changes from couple to couple, not from one sexuality to another. If someone in a committed, monogamous relationship that both people have agreed on, it's problematic to assume that a bisexual partner will not honor that commitment.
你正在约会的对象是双性恋,并不意味着他(她)更有可能去追求每一个人并与之发展关系。不同夫妻对一夫一妻制的定义迥异,然而不同性向对一夫一妻的定义却无差别。如果某人处于双方皆认同并承诺的一夫一妻固定关系,假想双性恋的一方不会遵守承诺,这就有问题了。
4. MYTH: All Bisexual People Are Interested In Casual Sex.
谬论四:所有双性恋者都爱瞎搞性关系。
Experiencing attraction to multiple genders 4 does not automatically imply high sex drive, all the time, with everyone. Relatedly, bisexuality also doesn't automatically translate to "interested in a threesome." Some bisexual people may be into threesomes, but others may not. Assuming that everyone in a specific group is never a good idea.
双性恋会被不只一种性别的人吸引,这并不等于双性恋在任何时候都会对所有人产生强烈的性欲。同理,人们也不能下意识地将双性恋理解成“乐于搞3P”。一些双性向的人也许喜欢3P,可也有一些可能对3P不感兴趣。把每个人都设想归入某特定群体绝非一个好想法。
5. MYTH: Bisexual People Can't Be Religious.
谬论五:双性恋不能信宗教。
Of course bisexual people can be religious. They can also have myriad 5 other identities that are in no way determined 6 by their sexuality. Surprise!
双性恋当然能信宗教。他们还能有许多其他的身份呢,这些身份可决不是由其性向决定的。惊讶吧!
