I don't know and I don't really care. I've fallen in love with both boys, girls and transgendered. If that makes me omni, that's great. I consider myself sexual and that's enough for me. :p

Perhaps your overthinking it a smidge, I don't think that people looking for a romantic relationship are really worried about their biology as you put it. Personally I don't know or care where exactly I would fit on the Kinsey scale as the statistics are irrelevant to the individual. Somebody could be a 1 on the scale but still find someone that they love with a person of the same sex and vice versa with someone who is a 5. Ultimately it's the person that they are attracted to not the gender.
Overthinking is something I tend to do. But I still feel that people are free to pursue whatever they want without infringing upon the rights of others.

Obviously, they just weren't showing good porn :p.

But seriously, you can't draw conclusions on people's sexual orientation, let alone an entire sex's orientation based on their reaction to two specific porn videos. Sexuality is more complex then that. Personally, I find most porn boring.
Fair enough. I made a fairly rambling post about biology vs conscious/subconscious decisions, but it's hardly worth paying attention to. And I know what you mean about most porn being boring.

Hate to break it to you sweetie, but having a preference for one gender or the other doesn't mean someone's not bisexual:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kinsey_scale
And that's pretty much why I occasionally identify as bi. I think the majority of people don't see it as a scale, but rather a binary, gay or straight. From that viewpoint, 1-5 on the scale are all bi. And certainly can be considered bi for the purposes of identity politics.

Self-identification as bi can simply be a rejection of the hetero/homo binary.

Hehe, I kinda like the hippie rambling :D

But nah, it's not bad. I don't get much.
Worst I have to deal with are the assholes in my town who just think I'm gay but... they don't count >.<
Anything else is just out of confusion or whatever. I mean, the definition does say you love everyone so I guess people could get "paedo" out of that but... meh. Whatever. Doesn't bother me. :p
Oh god the town assholes, sure know what you're talking about there. <_< feckin hate those guys. (again no sarcasm)
But really props for talking about it like that, a lot of people have trouble enough coming out let alone something like this.

I recently had a really long (drunk) talk with a gay guy at a campfire about sexuality so this is really my point of interest right now xD

tl;dr: You see more bisexuals on the escapist than gays. Why?
For guys, it's occasionally an extension of heterosexual friend zoning. Teenage boys spot the tactic of placing themselves in a position based off their sexual identity that seems less threatening to women. This lets them cloak and/or repress any heterosexually predatory attitudes they might be struggling with, and gives them a way to remove that cloak if the occasion arises.

Can't speak for everyone, but I feel somewhere along the lines Bisexualism devolved into a middle-school level of fad. It carries the ring of someone who is either a wagon-rider or just insecure about their sexuality.
snip

and those people are sad :(
Why are they sad, exactly? Because they made a life descision that you personally do no agree with? Seriously. Why? What is wrong with wanting as much sex as possible? (As long as it´s safe and protected, of course.) Who are you to say that their lives are bad? Have you ever met a person like that? Has there been studies that say "people who have lots of sex with diffrent people are statistically unhappier than those who have sex with the same"?

Or do you think they are sad based simply on your own arbitraty and outdated morals?

it's cool to be bi, kids these days don't know the different between hormones making you want to fuck and love, it's insane where I'm from you see 12 year old girls kissing, saying they love each other, having sex then finding a new "love" the ext week, it's the same with the boys. I know because my little cousin acts like this. It's also down to attention, like "OMG look at me all the time, I'm soooo damaged, depressed and my bf/gf dumped me last night, i'm going to go kiss a boy/girl and find love with one of my own sex!!"

I was depressed, it's not something you want to share with anyone. One of the guys I tried to help conquer his depression killed himself, he done so because he couldn't find his place and didn't know what to do due to his bisexuality.

I would advise peole who act the way I described to grow up, but then you'd be adults and I'd have to sit and listen to that wherever I go.

How else will you know which prostitutes to procure for me when I give you a wink and a smile and hand you my wallet?
An internet to you, good sir.

OT: The reason you seen a relatively higher number of bisexual posters, (ignoring the current 'fad' aspect) is that most people don't truly understand themselves or their sexuality, until they've reached their twenties, and when many of the posters here are below that age... Ignorance/insecurity makes people wish to conform, and what's more conformist to moral relativism than bisexuality?

I go with none of the above, asexuality. I think I've used that fact once when in a thread, and it was a thread related to romance and human sexuality anyways.

It's because you were reading a 'what sexuality are you' thread.

In all seriousness, I've noticed people like to point out irrelevant facts about themselves on here a lot.

I have never seen a comment like that... Right now I can't even think of a comment where someone said they were bi. I'm sure I've seen one though considering I've read a few topics dealing with gay/bi rights.

Although if I'm honest I think asexuality is the "new bi" in that regard.
Its sad but on the escapist that actually is true. I doubt half the people on here who call themselves asexual even know what that means.
Woodsey: Huh. You sure thats true? Never noticed anyone claim asexuality besides myself.

SgtFoley: How can one misunderstand the lack of a libido/a lack of desire to form a non-platonic relationship with anyone, regardless of gender? It is hardly like trying to divine the differences between the various substrates of bisexuality.

Maybe Bi's are just gays who do not fully accept that they are homosexual, so they take the middle ground.

Just my opinion. I've had this discussions with many of my gay friends and they all believe it's this too.
A friend of mine describes bisexuality as 'on the choo choo train to gay town'.

I personally believe that most people who are bi are just confused. (Or, bi-curious)

I'm pretty sure the number of gay people in a certain population outnumbers the number of actually bi people.

Because statistically there are more Bi people than there are gay or even straight?

Don't get me started on those assholes.
I don't take it as anything other than intolerant pieces of shit who apparently hate me so much that they feel the need to throw shit at me from their cars and even in two instances, attempt running me over but... fuck it, I look on the bright side; at least I'm not dead >.>
But I thank you for support like that. It really means a lot :3

Hehe, that sounds like a fun conversation. How did that go? :p

Excuse me, but omni?
As in you love everything or...*confused*
I tend to say bi just to avoid confusion but...

Here you go :3 [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pansexuality]

And I will agree with you on that. Most people for some reason tend to see "bi" as being "cooler" than gay or even straight. Not sure why that is but... whatever. If it's true, then good for them for realising their sexuality.
If they're confused, then let them experiment.
If they're just trying to fit in and be considered cool then... oh well. So what? Not like it's much of a bother to anyone. It can just get annoying.
I hear you about the Omni thing, but I tend to just go with Bi as well, saying you are pansexual just starts long explainations.

Say whaaaaat? I know theres a hell of alot of bi/gay/non-hetero people here, but I've never seen it brought up for very little reason (The OP's food example, for example).

There just tends to be some thread on sexuality pop up every week or so.


Off topic: Captcha was "similar nersdati". Who is Nurse Dati and what is she similar to?

I don't get why people have to declare their sexual preferences anyway, particularly on a gaming site or other totally unrelated place.
agreed I dont really see why gay's and bi's need to let everyone know all the time I mean I don't go around telling people I am straight.

A: Most people on the forums are teens/pre-teens
B: It's the interwebz, people lie as a way of life
C: Trolls
D: The rainbow brigade are an mouthy minority. Consider that only around 5 percent of the population actually are gay, although they get a ton of press.
E: Add all the above and you get the over the top reporting of gays, bi's, and lesbians.
