Does this apply as a trope for a character? Or should be a different trope with a different name for a bisexual trope altogether?

This is a Useful Notes page. It is not meant to be listed in trope lists. Tropes about bisexuality are at Bisexuality Tropes (those may be listed in trope lists).
Let's just say and leave it at that.
"The actual definition: unlike heterosexuals and homosexuals, who are attracted to just people of the opposite sex and just people of the same sex respectively, bisexuals are attracted to people of the same gender and other genders"
This is confusing, the sentence starts by talking about sex, then switches to gender. If the difference being emphasised is that the first group are attracted by the sex of their partner, and the second group by the gender of their partner, it needs rewriting to make that clear. Otherwise, it must use "sex" throughout. As sex (verb) is biology not identity, so sex (noun) is the correct word.
