Thinking you are edgy and unique by being bi no longer works if everyone is
That's part of it. It was perceived as an advantage in college admissions and hiring to claim a special sexual identity. But maybe it stopped being "special," and thus no longer as much of an advantage.
I think a lot of cynical assholes were just picking "other" or "pan-sexual" and "they/them" because they thought it could make them untouchable.

This is because we brought fig and "that's gay" back.

I posted evidence of just that from the faggy, androgynous 80s to the grungy, dirty 90s

That is horrendous fashion and celebrity culture.
I know you are better than that, SFP.
The chart in the OP counters your argument any way.
If it was just a natural “ebb and flow” of society, the numbers would remain relatively the same.

The sexuality did not really shift. It just became fashionable to label yourself that way
Now it's no longer cool or unique to label yourself that way, so things are shifting back

Yea, his response makes me question that statement.

People following trends and then changing their mind isn't part of the natural ebb and flow of society?
I think you're attaching a legitimacy to the actual sexuality that never existed. If you look at the chart, it speaks of identification only. That doesn't mean that there was a sincere belief in that sexuality and the shift back furthers this argument.
It was really cool to label yourself bi for a period, the same as it was cool to have frosted tips or wear JNCOs, and with all those trends it became uncool at a certain time and people stopped and went in a different direction. The ebb and flow of culture

Won't this be evidence for the "this just goes to show sexuality is fluid" crowd?

if “bisexual” could become fashionable and then disappear like frosted tips and JNCOs, why were we endlessly told these labels were deeply authentic, innate, and immutable?
conceded the point while trying desperately to argue against it. :shakes head in disbelief:

You're talking about two very separate things here.
I was only addressing one
I completely understand what you're trying to shift it to the other one though. My comments have no applicability to that attempted pivot

The OP blamed USAID, and your first response dismissed that causal explanation as “natural ebbs and flows.” You then agreed it was a social contagion and claimed the culture made identifying as bisexual fashionable.
Asking whether institutional and media promotion helped make it fashionable is directly applicable to the original argument.
So did those external influences help create the trend, or did it all spontaneously appear like frosted tips?

A point I did not address
I only replied to a comment specifically about USAID
Like I said, you're trying to talk about something I never addressed specifically.
There are infinite things that influence culture and cultural shifts
Also you are changing your argument
You said this specifically

In 6 years, HS seniors went from 7% gay to 22% gay.
