WAKE UP AND REALIZE WE'RE IN 2006... GAYS ARE NOT DISAPPEARING SO GET USE TO THEM!!!

People who are sexually attracted to people of the same gender are still people and still deserve our love.\n\nContrary to what organized religion says about homosexuality it is not the devil's business and it is not sick or evil.  Just like mixed-ethnicity relationships, they were misunderstood for a long time.  There are alwasy going to be biggots in the world to try and mess that up but all they're going to do is expose the fact that they are full of hatred.

I have no problem with bisexuality per se. I do have a problem with sharing my man. I don't want to share him with anyone, male or female.

Because lesbians are more accepted in society than gay men.I believe that's because of  male fantasy of having two women together.

Yes, I think so because many people just are in closet! Therefore, statistics are untrue or refer to the people that have claimed their position openly. But in my opinion there are a lot of other gay or bi people in the world around!

People fear what they don't know, some people just cannot accept the fact that not everyone is like them nor should they have to be. We are all individuals with certain qualities that make us unique and who we are. Bisexuality is actually something that we all have in us however not everyone would accept that fact not would they act upon it. I beleive that being attracted to our own sex if normal . Some people can accept that and not experiment and some do experiment and find it gratifying. To each his own and no one should ever condem anyone for their preferences. I would say that you should do what you need to do\nif you are happy with it however you don't need to make it public.\nWhy not let that be something you explore discreeetly, not everyone needs to know.  So just remember this bisexuality thing is normal and do what you need to do.

I think it's just that now it's so much easier for people to actually come out and say to people "Hey.. I'm gay!" but the problem with that is that it also makes it easier for people to decide to be gay because it's so widely accpeted. I'm not saying it's a bad thing at all.. all it means is that there are alot more gay people these days than before.\nHowever, there is a side to it where some people think it's 'cool' or 'in' to pretend to be bi.. such as Britney Spears kissing Madonna and hinting that she may be bi.. or whatever.. people like that annoy me and there are alot more people like that in society because they think it's 'hot.' \n\nI hope this answers your question <3

That would be interesting, But I know what you mean about hardly ever seeing gay girls and straight guys. Unless the girls are really butch then they probably have nothing in common with a guy, like how some gay guys are really girly so they have girl friends.

I think the whole bisexual man idea is really new to most people.  Society is more accepting of us bisexual girls.  I find you completely interesting, myself.  Keep posting and maybe you'll inspire some other guys to come out.

The issue of homosexual behavior has had a lot of publicity of late. Homosexuals say that the slaves have been freed and women have been liberated, so gay rights are long overdue. Society does seem to be moving in that direction. Many homosexuals are "coming out" and openly declaring their homosexuality. In many parts of the western world, homosexual couples receive the same recognition as heterosexual couples with regard to social security benefits. Some church leaders are giving their blessing to homosexual relationships, homosexual church members and even homosexual ministers.Since other groups who have been discriminated against (such as women, blacks and the disabled) have been given equal opportunity, homosexuals claim that they, too, should be liberated. However, as one Christian expert has said...\n\n"Gender, race and impairment all relate to what a person is, whereas homosexuality relates to what a person does."1\n\nIn contrast, homosexuals claim that scientific studies have shown that there is a biological basis for homosexuality.\n\nThree main studies are cited by "gay rights" activists in support of their argument2—Hamer's X-chromosome research,3 LeVay's study of the hypothalamus,4 and Bailey and Pillard's study of identical twins who were homosexuals.5\n\nIn all three cases, the researchers had a vested interest in obtaining a certain outcome because they were homosexuals themselves. More importantly, their studies did not stand up to scientific scrutiny by other researchers. Also, "the media typically do not explain the methodological flaws in these studies, and they typically oversimplify the results".6 There is no reliable evidence to date that homosexual behavior is determined by a person's genes.\n\nTo the extent that biological or social factors may contribute to a person's bent toward homosexual behavior, this does not excuse it. Some people have a strong bent towards stealing or abuse of alcohol, but they still choose to engage or not engage in this behavior—the law rightly holds them accountable.\n\nThe final report of the Baptist Union of Western Australia (BUWA) Task Force on Human Sexuality states 'that a person becomes a homosexual ultimately by choosing to be involved in same-sex activity... This is in contrast to innate characteristics such as gender and ethnicity.'7 The report affirms that 'the Bible is clear that sin involves choice, and it unequivocally condemns homosexual behavior as sin'.7\n\nThe foundational teaching on marriage and sexual issues is found in Genesis chapters 1 and 2. When Jesus was questioned about marriage, He referred to these 2 chapters (Matthew 19:1-12; Mark 10:1-12). Genesis teaches us that 'male and female He created them' (Genesis 1:27). We were created to a plan—male and female complementing each other. That is, God made Adam and Eve, not Adam and Steve, nor Madam and Eve.The Bible not only describes homosexual behavior as detestable, but it also calls for the punishment of those involved (Leviticus 20:13). Their unrepentant attitude caused God to destroy Sodom and Gomorrah (Genesis 19:24-25).\n\nJust as homosexual conduct has been punished in the past, so it will also be punished by God in the future.\n\n"...Neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor homosexuals, nor sodomites, nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners will inherit the kingdom of God" (1 Corinthians 6:9-10).\n\nHope

I appreciate and admire the beauty of both the male and female bodies and though I have had intimate encounters with both genders, in all honesty, I do prefer men over women. Does this in turn make me bisexual or a man who is denying his true sexual orientation? Personally, I feel our need to categorize and pigeon-hole ourselves and each other is unnecessary and a complete waste of time. Just think of Bisexuality was a way of loving the best of both worlds.

This is an enormously complex and divisive question.  In the LGBT community, the traditional wisdom is that it is 10% of the population.  There are some studies out there that support this number, others that say as high as 16% (a lot depends, by the way, on how you define "bisexual," particularly in women), and some other studies say as low as 2%.  In 2000, the last Census year before the current anti-Gay hysteria took over the Federal government, there was a lot of pressure to use the Census to begin to figure out just how many self-identified LGBT people there were in America, but the political backlash from the predictable Christian Right crowd stifled that.  Still, the census does reveal an astonishingly high number of people who are "heads of households" with biologically unrelated adults of the same gender in their home, so figure it out for yourself.

I agree with you to an extent. I think as a society there is too much emphasis on labeling and marginalizing people. Everyone's different though. I'm sure plenty of people are specifically attracted to one gender and not the other, while some people could potentially be attracted to/fall in love with someone of the same or opposite sex. I think people should accept love wherever and however they find it.

I think it steams from when people though only gays and druggies can get HIV/AIDS.\n\nmany of those people didn't get correct in this thought and though it to their kids (and other people's kids)\n\nadd this to the fact that are school system have been cutting back on sex ed\n\nplus (but connect to the first one) there was a guy that wrote a book about him living a secret life where he cheated on the lady he was with a bunch of men.  That has been getting a lot of press (at least in the Black media outlets) that help fuel this ideal of bisexual men are the reason straight women get HIV/AIDS

Because they are outside the mainstream culture.  Think about it, if the country were mostly gay wouldn't you call yourself a straight American?

because most men on the down low refuse to believe that they are even homosexual. they  just got to have a  REASON  for this  since  they  actually believe it is just an occasional thing and doesn't mean they are gay. such men are so terminally in denial.

Bi sexual men do not all have the same taste.
