"I'm Bi"

[The Unworthy Gentleman]

Who gives a shit what someone's sexuality is?
As long as they aren't constantly shoving it in my face (In this case they aren't by just saying "I'm bi"), then I don't care.

Divide by zero because infinite times this.

I'm sick of the sexuality threads now, it's gotten stale. I don't care if who you find yourself attracted to, as long as you don't base your personality around your sexuality, you're fine in my book.

It's also because many young people who don't really have their sexuality figured out will still feel the need to put a label on it, and if they aren't sure, they can come to a conclusion they are bi or asexual.

I myself, for a time, when growing up would have identified myself as bi, if asked, as I kinda had crushes for boys and girls.
But when I've grown up and learned to differentiate sexual attraction from just intellectual, or thinking someone is cute, I've noticed I have never felt like that towards a guy, so I'd call myself lesbian, if asked. It's not like my sexuality is a secret, but I don't see any reason to draw attention to it.

this some's up my thoughts exactly

Well everyone is a bit bi, there is no such thing as 100% hetero or homo. I'm not completly bisexual, since I don't find manly men attractive Only girlie men, which is more hetero I suppose :/

Well the truth (In my completely subjective point of view) is that love don't give a toss about boundaries. We've all got the capacity to love any gender. We have, however, got a couple millennia of social stigmatization to prevent us from being able to accept that without some fairly major soul-searching.

But not being able to accept it or understand it doesn't make the feelings go away. Most of us (I've known only a single person in my entire life that was truly split 50/50 between the two main genders) prefer one of the sides but we've all got the capacity to feel attracted to the other as well. Some to a larger and some to a lesser degree.

If you think these 3 boxes are actually able to define the limits of human love then there's only one possible conclusion to make if you like girls and suddenly feel an attraction to a boy: You're bi.

That's not true though. You've merely met a boy that you feel attracted to (or a girl if it's the other way around. Same thing). I've been openly gay since my teens and I honestly thought I fit perfectly fine into that little neat box. But then I met a girl that completely turned my head. I'm not any less gay now than I was then even though I'm dating her on third year now. She's the only female I've ever found romantically or sexually interesting. But love knows no boundaries and I just got (un)lucky and fell for a person outside my normal preference-group.

Obviously all this is subjective. People can and will disagree for any number of reasons. That's their prerogative. I do not claim my view to be the final truth; it's merely MY truth. What I've seen, felt and experienced in my life leads me to believe that we all have the capacity to love anyone even though we all have preferences. Some may have their preferences more evenly divided than others but we've all got them.

This would have been my answer.

What? People on the internet might be lying???? Never!

Look, yes, I'm sure that some of the people here who "claim to be bi-sexual" are saying it for attention.
I'm sure some of them aren't sure.
I'm sure some of them are school kids who don't know what sexual preference they are.
I'm sure some of them are.

But, really, who gives a shit?
For whatever reason they say it, let them.

i like pussey and cock and i cannot lie, its just so awesome!

I've heard it said that sexuality is either estrogen or testosterone acting on the brain. Both genders usually carry at least a little of each chemical. That would suggest to me that sexual attraction is somewhat mechanical and arbitrary. Like hunger.
Labels like 'homosexuality' and 'heterosexuality' and 'bisexuality' reinforce social conformity. It appears liberating, but really we are less likely to know how much our sexualities can change or be pushed.

all i have to say about Bisexuals are that they are Greedy!

PICK A HOLE AND STICK WITH IT! I don't care what way you swing so long as you swing in only one direction not both you greedy bastards! grrrr.

they are the only ones i will discriminate against

 

[Fetzenfisch]

Today everyone who ever fooled around with someone of the same gender or even thought about it claims to be bi.
Hell i made out with guys a few times, but i am straight as an arrow.

 

[EeveeElectro]

I know a lot of people who say it for attention, although in this day and age I don't think being bisexual is cool and edgy as it used to be, so I don't know what they're playing at.
I don't like the sort of 13 year old girls/guys claiming to be bisexual because they think someone of the same gender is attractive. During your teenage years, your hormones are all over which probably will cause an attraction to the same sex. In ten years time, I don't think some people will still be bi.

Some 16 year old guy on my Facebook was all, "Yeah, I'm not bisexual any more." What a tit.

 

[TimeLord]

Most people who are actually bisexual tend to call themselves "pansexual" these days.

I prefer to call myself Omnisexual rather than Pansexual.

 

[Odbarc]

Woman are more likely to have bisexual tendencies.
Guys are less likely, I think. They have a preference of 51% male or female and are told that they are not bisexual because of it.

I think even bisexuals have a gender preference but are just comfortable with the other sex too.

As people are saying its not always clear cut. Some people have different defintions and levels of what constitutes as bisexual. Theres also a grey area when it comes to being straight or gay too. I mean take me for example: I consider myself straight but given the right circumstance i would make out with a guy, does this make me bisexual, probably not but my opinion is that bisexual person is a person who doesn't have any strong preference for either sex(like i do) but prefers that particular person regardless of gender.

I'd bet most of the people claiming to be Bi are actually Bi-curious.

Let's say a girl claims that she is "Bi". My first question is if she has ever even kissed a girl. If she says that she has never kissed a girl or anything, then she is Bi-curious in my book.

I'm willing to bet that most "Bi" people on this site are actually straight or gay and unwilling to admit it. Also, there are more than a few people who would make that claim seeking attention. I'm sorry, but just because you can admit that a person of the same sex is attractive while dating people of the opposite sex, that doesn't make you Bi. That means you have eyes.

Of course, I could be wrong. All or most of them may actually be Bi, but I wouldn't hold my breath. That's right people can be Bisexual, I just don't think its a large population. Or that everyone making that claim actually is.

I think you're more Bi-curious. Which is perfectly common and acceptable. Especially if you have a strong preference. Plenty of people can find those of the same sex attractive without actually being attracted to them. If that makes sense.
