bisexuality seems to always be looked down upon.
i mean, i know it would be because of the religious aspects and some people's morals.
but there are people who perfectly okay with homosexuality... but they don't think bisexuality is natural... because you like both.
they think that bi's are greedy.
i'm bi and i don't see how i'm any more greedy than the next person. i have a crush on one guy and one girl. that's fewer crushes than most of my friends have.
i guess what i'm asking is
why is homosexuality okay if bisexuality is not?

I really don't know! I figure that Bi's always have the greater choice! They're not cutting out any percent of the population! Bonus!!! I don't care who has sex with who provided they're all being careful....it's a Mom thing. Both Homosexuality and Bi-Sexuality and Heterosexuality are just fine...provided no one gets hurt and everything is consensual. Have a good one, my dear.

Because people are ignorant. I’m not saying all people, but why are some people so against bisexuality? I’m not bi, I’m a lesbian, for the record, but I don’t share the same view many other people share about bisexuality.
For starters, bi people are no more or less promiscuous than straight or gay people. So when some people say “You’re sleeping with every one they ever slept with”, well, isn’t that kinda true for everybody?
I especially know a lot of people who say “Bi people can’t love, and are more likely to cheat/leave for another man/woman”
I’m sorry if I’m the only one who doesn’t buy that. I feel each person is who they are, and if somebody is going to cheat, they’re going to do it regardless if they’re gay, straight, bi-with a man or a woman.
I especially know a lot of gay people with this attitude, who say bi people are confused, or greedy, and that they should just choose. But if someone were to say to them they chose to be gay and they could choose to be with someone of the opposite sex, I bet they’d be mad as hell.
So, for the life of me, I cannot understand in a world where a person is so conditioned to hatred, intolerance and being prejudiced against, why all the hypocrisy? Why can’t some accept others the way they are, as we ask to be accepted for who we are?
Doesn't make much sense, does it?

Well I used to feel that way but not until now that I have realized that bisexuality is just as normal as being homo and or heterosexual.
Bisexuality may seem to be harder to accept for the fact that it's scary coz you might not predict your bi partner. If I'd be a guy having a bi gf, I'd be scared to think that there's a possibility she might be falling for my sister and or likewise. In the same plane, commitment to the partner would be in a risk coz a bi may fall for a girl or a boy and it would hurt if you'd be a guy and your bi partner would fall for an opposite and likewise.

Heterosexuals can only wrap their minds around one thing at a prolonged period of time. However, I think you got it all wrong.
According to our society:
Bisexual women are hot.
Bisexual guys are not.
Also, the homosexuality aspect is wrapped up into bisexuality. Heterosexuals think that they are better than homosexuals because heterosexuals are playing their conventionally assumed and expected tasks while homosexuals are not. Also, there is a heterosexual ego thing that's involved here. Think about it. They were able to follow and respect a given rule while you couldn't. Heterosexuals may feel as if they need to be redeemed for that however way possible.

I really ask the very same question. Many people say gay is ok but being bisexual is just a choice of a trendy lifestyle. Being bisexual is being able to feel attracted to both sexes, thats all. You can be in love with either a girl or a guy. It doesnt mean that you need both at the same time to feel complete..some guys are with a girl but they may cheat on her with another guy, but it doesnt really mean that they needed to be with a guy so thats why they did it, it could have been with another girl...they just made the choice to cheat. It is just another sexuality.

Both are fine with me. I don't really know why homosexuality should be okay and bisexuality should not be, but I think we all have the right to say what we think and how we feel about ourselves... and the people who say bisexuals are greedy are just closed-minded jerks.

Honestly, I never really gave it much thought in terms of being greedy.
I spent more time looking for answers in the bottom of a beer bottle asking myself why i was bi.
Once I accepted I am what i am, I began to like myself again and concentrated on the bigger issues.
And now here it is 15 years later and I have found the woman of my dreams, who also is aware of my bi side and is supportive.
In short, I am happier now than I have ever been and only try to devote time to the things that really matter to me and my loved ones.

look some people think that homosexuality is not ok so I don't know why you think that just because you are BI it is better then being gay or lesbian because it is all the same you just love or like two people when most just want one........ but hey if that is what makes you happy then go for it..
Really Life Is To Short To Worry About What Others Think About You !!!!!!!!!!!!!
You Need to do what makes you happy!!!!!!!

Here's the deal:
Human sexuality is a fluid continuum. As long as you are involved with consenting adults it really is nobody's business, anyway.
I have no particular bias for or against anyone's sexuality, it is not my business; moreover, what I do is nobody else's business; anybody who wants to make it theirs can fly a kite. It only becomes a problem if it involves people against their will, or minors - sorry, one may think that a minor is mature enough to make up his/her mind but this is a sticking point for me.
Incidentally, I don't think that one's sexuality is optional - you can't decide that you are going to be bisexual, pansexual, transgendered, etc. - so why should one think it unnatural? Is it 'unnatural' for you to have blue eyes?

While it isn't fair, the reason most people have a "problem" with bisexuals is the issue of not being able to "compete" if the bisexual leaves them for someone of the opposite gender.
If I were dating a Bisexual guy and he were to leave me for a woman, how would you "compete" against that? You can't.
