have her read this post. if u don't know how to say "bisexual" properly than your not gay. Just tell her straight out that your not into girls. although i have to say, you damn lucky that she doesn't care. a lot of people get kicked out of home for this type of thing.

Why not allow your mother to think what she wants to, God knows where she is coming from.
And that is what 'she' thinks!
The important thing is what you think of it, and if it is not an issue for you, tell her just that, dont get bullied intellectually.
Don't let any one else define yourself for you, not even your mother, that is the lesson here, discuss by all means all that you are comfortable discussing, but then take her opinions as simply opinions, that's all. Though you can always question the validitity of her beliefs and viewpoints while allowing her have them, if she wants to that is part of growing up, questioning your parents or prevalent belief system in the society and firm your own, just the way you want them to be.
Above all learn to take it lightly, I would pull my mother's leg on that, introduce her to others as latest advocate of Gay-Lib movement in your town.

She's trying to be open and modern and let you know she's ok with most things you could tell her. Unfortunately she is making you uncomfortable. She means well, so just try and ignore the wierd stuff and give her a chance to "grow up" and be the mother of a teenager.

wow. uh.... i'll start by saying don't feel bad. my mom was certain that i was a lesbian. she even had a ''talk'' with me about how she doesn't approve of it (because she is christian), but would stand by me if i was sure that that would make me happy. after she got through her long out-drawn (useless) talk i told her, once again, that i wasn't gay. it took her a while, but finally she was convinced, (then she went to a whole other extreme, but that's a whole nother story!). i can tell you to just keep correcting her. every time she makes a comment about it, just say "mom, i'm not bi..." it'll take time (trust me) but eventually she'll get it. don't stress though. just think of it as...well...funny. cuz if you think about it, it actually is. Have Fun!!

Just tell her point blank what you think.
Tell her in her plain and simple language that you are HETERO and not BI as she suspects.
And you may also make it clear that it might be OK with her to be BI but certainly not with YOU.
