What's up with bisexual people?

It was in you all along - but the second time around - you happened to meet the right girl to get you off.\n\n\nI wish all the guys were bi & would swing both ways.   Oh how that would be cool.   I would love it.

To be honest (i'm straight) i'm not anymore interested in the lifestyle of my gay friends than i am of the straight ones!  I mean i'll ask them how they are or what they have done over the weekend but nothing i don't ask any one else!!  I think some straight people either: a)secretly wonder if they are missing out on something; either sexually or with the lifestyle/social scene OR b)-and i know lots of people like this-are pathalogically nosey!  They have to ask you questions about anything and absoloutely EVERYTHING!  Its just the way some people are; they cannot function happily without feelin' as if they are included in everything!!!  Don't some people just DO your head in!!!!

The answer to your first question is pretty simple. There are plenty of people who have and act on romantic feelings for both genders, so, yes, people can be bisexual.\n\nYour second question is much more complicated, and you will no doubt get a lot of different answers, and the answers will probably biased in part by where they are coming from (gay, straight, bi) and their previous experience with bisexual people. \n\nI can only answer for me, for where I'm coming from. I'm a lesbian in my late 30s, who has been in a committed relationship for 8 years. (We would be legally married by now, if it was legal where we live.)\n\nBack in my 20's when I was single and part of the dating scene, there was a definite bias in the lesbian community against bisexual women. That takes some explanation.\n\nFirst, when I use the word bisexual, I mean it the way that I used the word in answering your first question: bisexuals are people who have and act on romantic feelings for both genders. \n\nThere are plenty of young women, even moreso now than 10 years ago, who believe bisexual means "I'll marry a man, but messing around with women when I'm drunk is sorta fun."\n\nTHOSE types of bisexual women are the ones that the lesbian community is really against. Most of my lesbian friends have, at one time or another, dated a bisexual woman, gotten emotionally involved, and then gotten dumped for a guy, because the girl wasn't in it "for real" ... just "for fun."\n\nThat being said, I do have bisexual friends, both men and women, and I don't care one way or the other that they are bisexual, just as I don't consider whether a person is straight or gay before deciding to befriend them. Cool people come in all flavors, you know?\n\nSo I will say this in conclusion to all the bisexual people out there, regardless of how you define the word: if you get into anything more than just a casual hookup with a gay person, PLEASE tell them that you are bisexual, and talk about what that word means to you. Open communication about this (like most things in a relationship) can really keep people from getting hurt.

Seriously, I think most gays and lesbians are indifferent to them.  That doesn't mean they disrespect them, it just isn't something many of us dwell on.  The only time it really becomes an issue is when and if there may be intimacy with that paerson, otherwise it isn't our concern how they live their lives.\n\nI am sure every non bisexual has an opinion on bisexuals, but most of us in GLBT don't let our personal opinions cloud how we treat bisexuals.

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

Because that's the way our society works... its freakin weird.\n\nI have friends that i've known for yrs that are now Bisexual. I don't have a probably at all with it. \n\nFor the ones who have the balls to say "Sick lifestyle" "God doesn't accept them"- CLOSE MINDED PUNKS. just because u don't agree with it, doesn't make it a "Sick Lifestyle" and GOD LOVES EVERYONE... no matter if ur chinese, black, a mutt, gay, straight, lesbian or bisexual.... WAKE UP AND REALIZE WE'RE IN 2006... GAYS ARE NOT DISAPPEARING SO GET USE TO THEM!!!

I may get yelled at for this but...\n\n...there is a Freudian explanation that says that people are homophobic because they are surpressing their own erotic feelings towards the same sex.\n\nThe other explanation is that they are narrow minded idiots ;-)

I believe most people are bisexual.  It just depends on how open to the idea you are.

Maybe they are curious about that type of lifestyle or bi-sexual.

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.

Are you asking a question? I mean I see the questions marks but what is your question?\n\nI think English is your second language. No?\n\nPeople normally don't hate me but then I am not out per-se. Most people like me. But if they knew I was bisexual I don't know if they would be as accepting of me. I imagine some of my relatives would have problems but I would like to think they would still love me.

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.

It's called bisexuality and stop trying to find some medical reason for it, enjoy it and have fun with it!!!

BISEXUAL - is when someone identifies themselves as one who is capable (and to some degree, experienced) with both men and women sexually/ romantically.\n\nBICURIOUS - is when someone is predominantly oriented toward one gender (sexually/ romantically), but questioning their own true orientation toward the other.  Usually, this implies someone who identifies themselves as straight, but for whatever reason, wants to explore their feelings toward same-gender intimate relations.  It also IMPLIES they don't have a lot of experience with same-sex experiences and wants to explore further.\n\nHope that helps!!
