I agree with this. My girlfriend calls herself queer to avoid the questions/views toward the label bisexual.
Not sure if this is girlfriend, as in your close friend, that is a girl, or girlfriend as in your romantic partner.
If it's the later though, I am curious, would her telling people she is bi - sexual while in a relationship with you, bother you?

Meh, who cares about labels! Seriously there is just way too much emphasis on labels within the GLBTQ----JKRJKEHJKWHJKWRHRW community its getting quite ridiculous. Who cares about the terms, its not what we should be focusing on. All it does it segregate us more, and make people feel we aren't "normal" (which obviously isn't the case).
You are what you are, why does there have to be such importance on labels.
+ 1 million.
Not to mention, here, just like in every other area of life, people really are too complex to be boxed in to any one label.
Take me for instance, for the purpose of moving the group forward in the eyes of the society as a whole, I would definitely say I am a member of the GLBT community, but wouldn't pick a specific one of those past that (except obv not an L because I am a male.)
Sure I could call myself a B, because it's the closest to being correct, if you were going to assign me just one, but still that's not the first way in which I would choose to identify myself.
Hopefully one day we can live in a world where the only, absolutely, required label we put on ourselves is:
Member of the human race. United and free in harmony, peace, love, and understanding.
Of course, we're a long way from that.
