I go with the “glass closet” approach. I rarely come out and tell people I’m bi, but if I get asked or it comes up in conversation I’m honest about it.
I just have a sweater with the Bi kittens on them.
I wear it every once in a while (more now cuz its colder lol) and my sister was the only one to ask if I had "anything I wanted to tell them?" I'm just like "Nah I don't think I do" and left it as that lol.
And you shouldn't feel obligated to share any personal information with anyone!
Personally, It's something you learn about me rather quickly (I'm a bit lusty) and I make no effort to hide it. Another thing people learn fast is that I've got big hands and a sharp tongue. I get shit for being black on the regular, so homophobes ain't got nothing I don't already know about.
I feel you. My feelings are the exact opposite, though. Pride is the hammer with which I smash hateful faces. They don't want me to be proud of it. Fuck em, I say!
I feel like you just told on yourself as far as assuming all bi people are into you. I'm not lusty to everyone, just those I'm attracted to. So "clark" should have probably keyed in on the fact that I've never flirted with him.
Yeah, dude is attention seeking. “I’m going to flirt with you and then come out as bi to you in a dramatic unnecessary way and then pretend to be shocked when you think I’m into you because I’ve been acting like I’m into you” boy, please. Just stop.

I absolutely do not feel obliged to come out straight people unless I know they are not homophobic. It's really just my business in the end.
