i’m bi. so is my gf katya.

however, katya is also a HUGE right-wing Trump supporter. she literally follows him on every single account and says stuff like “no one cares abt lgbt rights” which is an odd thing to say as a bi person.

Katya is also very nice to me and very much in love with me, though, despite our differing opinions, and I know she’d be offended if I questioned them.

    When Katya says “nobody cares about lgbt rights” she’s signalling that she doesn’t care about them.

    It’s your decision how you want to carry on, but be aware of that.

      This is a great and important point. I would explore this with her if I were you. Was she saying this out of cynicism, or does she herself not care. If it’s the latter, why? Given that it directly affects her, why would she feel this way? Does she not understand how it affects her?

      All of that has to be under the assumption that any other political disagreements you two have can be accepted by both of you and treated with mutual respect.
