Dateable AF is a podcast about all things lesbian dating—or queer dating—or women-who-date-women dating. Whatever letter you vibe with, if you're a woman who dates women, this one's for you.

Hosted by two longtime friends, this show dives into the wild, wonderful, and often WTF world of dating women—with honesty, humor, and zero shame. Expect smart takes, relatable stories, and the occasional U-Haul reference.

When people ask, “So… do you like men or women?” the answer is simple: Yes. 💅

In this episode of Dateable AF, Sarah and Rachel take on the myths, misconceptions, and magic of being bisexual in a binary world. From being told it’s “just a phase” to getting side-eye in queer spaces, we’re unpacking what it’s really like to live (and date) beyond the either/or.

We cover: 🌈 The myths — “Bi people are confused,” “It’s 50/50,” “You’ll eventually pick a side,” and other outdated nonsense. 💋 The reality of dating while bi — not gay enough for some, not straight enough for others, and constantly explaining that attraction ≠ infidelity. 📺 Representation matters — how bi celebs like Niecy Nash, Sara Ramirez, and Stephanie Beatriz are changing the narrative. 💡 Practical takeaways — how to own your identity, find inclusive spaces, and navigate relationships without letting stereotypes define you.

Because bisexuality doesn’t mean “undecided” — it means expansive. It’s not confusion; it’s capacity. 💖

💭 Discussion Prompts

  • Have you ever felt “in between” when it comes to sexuality or identity?
  • How do you define your own orientation on a spectrum, rather than a category?
  • What helps you feel seen and supported in queer spaces?

Share your thoughts or stories — we might feature them in a future mini-episode! 💌

🎧 Next week: “Open for Business” — a deep dive into ethical non-monogamy (and why it’s more about honesty than chaos).

💌 Thanks for tuning in to the Dateable AF Podcast, where we help you find your happy ending. Be bold, be kind, and for the love of queer dating — don’t text your ex.

Stay Dateable AF. 💙
