Battleaxe bisexual

Battleaxe bisexual (shortened to BaB) generally refers to a bisexual who doesn't believe that any other mspec labels (such as pansexual, polysexual, omnisexual, etc.) are valid. Battleaxe bisexuals think that all mspec people should identify as bi, and think that all other mspec labels are products of biphobia.

Contrary to the opinion of battleaxe bisexuals, almost all bisexual advocacy groups (and general LGBTQIA+ advocacy groups as well) fully accept mspec people using other orientation labels.

In 2018, a queer designer named Kristen (she/they) was perhaps the first person to coin the term "battleaxe bi" (as part of their "Pride Armory" series of weapon-themed pride patches and enamel pins), but she strictly intended it in a positive manner and has no ill will towards pan or other mspec labels.
