Poll: Would Your Partner's Sexuality Bother You?

[siebje]

This poll is missing the "Yes, please!" and/or "Yes, once you go bi, you never go back" option.

 

[Treblaine]

Another problem with this is the TITLE QUESTION is the exact inverse of the POLL QUESTION!

Title being: would you have a problem...

then Poll is: would you be fine with...

That causes so much unnecessary confusion as people post with "I say yes... and let me tel lyou a thing or two about that" are they answering the title question that led them here or the Poll question?!?!?!

There needs to be a sticky on how to compose a sensible Poll thread because I'm gettign fed up of this bullshit.

Nope I find no problem with this as long as they're not sleeping around behind my back.

Theres nothing wrong with it, its just greedy.

Wouldn't bother me at all. I'm bisexual myself. As long the person viewed having sex with anyone else at all as cheating and didn't try to justify cheating on me with a women as them being a completely different and unrelated sex. Although the previous relationship to this one, I got dumped partly because my girlfriend at that time just couldn't stand the idea of me being bisexual. She just couldn't get over how I was attracted to other guys, even though I would of never cheated on her with anyone else, male or female.

I have always felt that people who have difficulties with bi partners are usually just really insecure.

Or they've dated a bisexual girl who's made out with some other girl to get attention and ended up breaking their partner's heart.

I mean, I dated a bisexual girl and I hated her doing that to show off, it's the same as her kissing a man in front of me and frankly I don't think all the people that reckon they'd be fapping have really thought about the implications for a relationship.

Just because someone's bi doesn't mean that everything done to them is because they're bi, sometimes it's because they acted like a twat.

I would drop her like a hot rock for being an unfaithful attention whore. I don't know that the gender of the person she kisses or comes on to is at all relevant to the decision.

When I describe people being insecure and not wanting to date bi people I am thinking in terms of a straight man not dating a bi woman because he would feel that his masculinity is challenged if she leaves him for another woman. Or a gay female who won't date bi women because they don't want to be replaced with a man (I have known gay women who feel this way, I personally thing it is bullshit).

Aren't the poll answers the wrong way round? As in it should be Yes I am bothered, but it says Yes I think it's fine?
OT: Why would I care? If she was a lesbian she wouldn't be dating me in the first place, and if she were Bi, why should it matter? I'm happy with her, and (as far as I'm aware...) She's happy with me.

I voted maybe two seconds ago, but have since had a change of heart,what I really wanted to vote for was the "Yes, I see nothing wrong with it" option.

 

[Sgt Doom]

Considering I myself am bisexual, wouldn't bother me in the slightest.

It just annoys me when people think it'd be hot, it's actually a rather nasty feeling. It's not necessarily because they're bi that you wouldn't want to date a bi girl, it can be because of behaviour that that person chooses to associate with because they think it's appropriate for bi people to. Uh, for example most of the people on here are mid-teens, at that age a lot of girls seem to think that 'bi' is the same as 'indiscriminately promiscuous' and so if someone at that age told me they were bi I'd probably be extra cautious.

Which is why I don't understand why this poll was even made. You're asking a group of people between 13 and 21 who are (ballparking it) predominantly male if they like lesbians, essentially.

At that age, though, "bi" girls are usually ones who ***** about not being able "to find true love in men". As if anybody they've dated then truly qualifies as a "man". Seems like they've watched too many reality shows.

 

[Oh That Dude]

Bi here so it'd be a good thing to be honest, more in common and such.

I mean no disrespect to alot of the bisexuals on this website (I say alot, because undoubtedly a few are going to be the ones who I mention) but too an extent it would bother me. Why, because nearly every bisexual I know does it for attention. Completely just to get everyone to look at them, it's annoying and just gets on mine and alot of other peoples nerves. Like they are trying to add another layer to them, along with writting terrible poetry and general other attention seeking things.

So, it would bother me if I was going out with a bisexual if they where like that. A bisexual because it's 'in' and 'trendy', rather than actually bisexual.

However, if they just happened to be i'd be fine with it although I would admittedly occasionally get raised eyebrows when they where too buddy with other women (or just get happy in my pants, I don't know).

Dating a lesbian or gay person would be weird though, as i'm neither.

So yeah, i'd be fine with a bisexual person so long as they are bisexual because they like women, not just attention.

 

[Hattmeister]

Let me put it like this.
Out of all of my ex's, I have one which I'm still close friends with. She's bi.

(And yes, she still wishes to get me in the sack every now and then)

 

[Gunner_Guardian]

My first girlfriend was bi-sexual.

 

[ParkourMcGhee]

Depends.

If everything else is what I like, there's absolutely no problem I can forsee o0.

If she's however prone to... playing games. She has even more people to choose from, which would cause me dismay.

 

[Matt-Sama]

No why should it be a bother? My girlfriend is bisexual, or atleast does not care about sexuality I know she has had sex with two different women in her life. As long as she is not doing that whilst I am with her, because that still counts as cheating I am fine.
Personally some people are just more free than others. Now if I had a gay experience with another man I wouldn't know how she felt for there is a general sense of male to male homosexuality is alot more dirty than female to female.
