The authors asked if Lit would add a new story category.
(FYI: Votes are anonymous)
My feeling is that this is, after all, a porn board, and the categories are about sexual action, not about sexual identity. So if the woman is having sex with a woman, it goes into lesbian-- if there's a man as well it becomes bisexual, because that's the action. And sometimes there are two women AND two men. Three men, even!
Many lesbians don't want to read about men joining in with two women. And many gay guys don't want to read a woman joining in with two guys.
Most of the readers here don't mind reading about two women getting it on in Group Sex category-- it's reading about two men that drives the homophobic readers apeshit.
Many writers have stories they won't post here because of that horrible reaction.
What do you think?
ETA: someone has pointed out to me that some cuck stories might be better in a bisexual category too.

The alternative is to create separate Bisexual Male and Bisexual Female categories. The problem with this is placement. If a story has a bisexual woman having sex with another woman, does it go in Bisexual Female or Lesbian? If she's having sex with a man only, does it go in Bisexual Female or EC (or another pertinent category)? If she's having sex with both, why place it in Bisexual Female instead of Group?]
Any input on this would be welcome. If you want to share this PM with the forum for discussion, that's cool.
