BAUMGARDNER'S RELATIONSHIPS

Baumgardner and Amy.

    
     Once Baumgardner started a relationship with Michael, there was a lot of confusion, rude comments and questions, as any bisexual person may encounter. People said it was "just a phase" and questioned HER sexuality.

     Eventually, she marries Michael and in the article she expresses that just because she is married to a man, doesn't mean her sexuality has changed. She states that her sexuality is hers and that it's not determined by her partner. There was a sentence that really jumped out to me and that was "I'm aware I appear straight, because bisexuality is invisible (or unbelievable) to many people." I strongly agree with the statement that people are shocked by people who identify as bisexual and suddenly decide that the individual is greedy or confused.
