No, trans existence does not warp bisexuality whatsoever. This is ridiculous.
Bisexuality doesn't actually exist in the transgender ideology framework, no? They literally don't believe in biological sex so every human has to be attracted to both sexes because in their world you're only attracted to the gender soul which is obviously invisible.
Bisexuality is still bisexuality with regard to trans existence. What you said sounds a lot more like an issue of monosexuals
Here’s how it works:
Bi people are attracted to two genders, but not all genders. For example, some bi people are attracted to female and non binary. Some are attracted to male and female. It’s also a bit of a scale with regard to attraction to a particular gender - some people are more attracted to one gender than another, while others like me are more or less equally attracted to both.
It’s not a denial of other genders, but it’s also not pansexuality in that we’re not attracted to all genders but only two.
If we happen to be attracted to someone - let’s say they present as a very effeminate man at the time we meet them - and they tell come out to us as trans and say “no, I’m actually a woman”, we just say to ourselves “oh this person is a woman, not a man, ok well, that doesn’t affect my attraction to them”. Since bi people can be attracted to both/either, our attraction is very much unaffected by whether a person is trans.
What the TERFs in this quote are describing sounds more like monosexual misunderstanding of what bisexuality is.

I feel like this is an attempt to spread the myth that being trans is biphobic (or “those mean trans people are saying bisexuality is transphobic!”) when if you know anything about either group you realize that this isn’t true whatsoever.
As you probably know, recently bi people have been pointing out the biphobia among TERFs and clearly TERFs are noticing because I’ve seen a lot of backtracking and/or blaming trans people for TERF’s discrimination against cis bi women (notice they don’t include bi men and as we’ve just pointed out they don’t appear to realize that bi trans people exist). It makes me so angry. TERFs are rightfully being called out and so then (surprise surprise!!) they lie and try to make someone else responsible.
