Bisexual erasure may stem from a belief that bisexual people do not deserve equal status or inclusion within gay and lesbian communities. This can take the form of omitting the word bisexual in the name of an organization or event that serves the whole LGBT community.
Homosexual people who engage in bisexual erasure may claim that bisexuals are actually closeted gay people who wish to appear heterosexual, or conversely that bisexuals are simply heterosexuals who are "experimenting" with their sexuality.
