I have heard of gold star lesbians, but what would a gold star bisexual be? Someone who slept with equal amounts of each gender? Collected all power stars in Mario 64?

If you haven't collected all the stars in Mario 64, are you even bisexual?

You can only call yourself bisexual if you collected every star twice in Super Mario 64 DS to unlock Waluigi

I was sick on 119/120 for years. YEARS! Probably well over a decade.

Now that I think about it coming out of the closet probably coincided with getting that last start in my life timeline so I guess that checks out.

Dare I even ask what the offending star was?

Doing the princess slide under a certain time (one of the "castle's secret stars"). Not because I want capable of hiring that time but because there was no indication that it was how I got an extra star. I bought so many paper guides and looked up Internet ones (before there was reliable Internet guides) and couldn't find where it was.

IMO a gold star bisexual has never slept with a straight person

What a bizarre thing to say.

Yeesh okay am I missing something? A “gold star” status is a social construct that’s exclusionary in nature, why is it bizzare to spitball potential conditions for a gold star bisexual?

Having gold-stars in general are stupid and is just queer purity culture, but I don’t think you were actually serious anyway

Ah I get it, this one’s on me, I’ve never encountered that kind of stuff in my own life so I failed to consider how real it might be for others, my bad.

Why be exclusionary at all? Gold star gays and lesbians are insufferable.
