She’s here, she’s queer, get used to it.
Proud bisexual Anna Paquin took to Instagram Tuesday night to defend her bisexuality against criticism that she’s not queer enough because she’s married to a man.
The Oscar-winning actress came out as bisexual in early 2010, appearing in a PSA video for the pro-equality campaign We Give a Damn.
Later that year she got married to her “True Blood” co-star Stephen Moyer.
On Tuesday, the 38-year-old New Zealand-Canadian actress shared on her Instagram Stories a screen grab of a comment that read in part, “I am getting tired of seeing ‘bi’ celebrities constantly advocate for it only to end up conventionally married to men with multiple children, living out the so-called white-picket-fence life.”
“Ah yes... the ‘you aren’t queer enough’ BS,” Paquin captioned the image, according to People.
Later Paquin shared another image — a colorful background with a bold type that read, “I’m a #proudbisexual who is married to a wonderful human who happens to be a man.”
“If he doesn’t have a problem with it why should anyone else?,” she captioned the image, following with the hashtags #loveislove, #f—bierasure, and #bipride.
Paquin and Moyer, 51, share 8-year-old twins, Poppy and Charlie.
