Do you think that all humans are bisexual (and that society makes them straight or defines right and wrong for them)?

I think people are born gay, straight or bi. Beyond that, people are turned on or off by certain things, but there is no pressure created that is proven to "turn" people against their own orientations.

No, I don't feel that all humans are bisexual. I believe that a majority of people have some degree of bisexual capacity, especially in certain environments/with certain people, but there are also quite a few people who are 100% gay or straight and simply don't have any latent desires for both sexes. That's just me, though.
I do think that society shapes a lot of what people do and how they define themselves. One of my favorite quotes is "I really don't mind being queer. I just wish so many people weren't put off by it." So if it were more acceptable, I think a lot of people would come out as bisexual or at least say that the same/opposite sex might be a possibility.

I think that more or less everyone has homosexual tendencies.
Obviously society and religion make us hide it or never realise it is there on the first place...We are humans and not robots that operate on specific programs and commands. After I came out to my straight friends, most of them confessed that it has crossed their minds to experiment with guys. The open minded ones even said they were bisexuals (but not because they ever done anything but because they couldnt guarantee 100% about how things might come in their lives and how they would react.)

no..because i was never attracted to girls and even though I can appreciate an attractive woman as "pretty" she doesn't turn me on sexually. When I had kids, the boys always fell for certain types of women and flirted with them too (even at age 8 months old). I tried to make them play with dolls and they wouldn't...they would just throw them across the room and go take my babysitters boys trucks and cars and make revving noises with them. They have done studies also showing little kids playing with toys and even if they play with the same toys, the boys play differently with the same toy than the girls do. If you have ever worked around children, either daycare or elementery school, you can see distinct differences immediately. If you ever have more than one child, you will see differences from day one in their personality as well. Little boys are generally annoying because they are so physical and blunt and little girls are annoying because they want to blab and talk and chat and be manipulative all the time..oh and controlling. That is a generalization, but I have been around tons of little kids from having a daycare, to my own two kids, to working at a nursery, to volunteering in the kids' school, and talking and watching friends and their children, and working at a community center where kids came every day.

i dont think that all humans are bisexual. there are straight people out there that know they couldnt do it. society definately does define things for us but we bring it upon ourselves at the same time. it appears, thanks to scientists, that we now know that you are born with the genetics of gay and straight. as for bis - maybe they have equal amounts.

I think you'r born the way you are, gay, straight, or bisexual. Society unfairly considers others wrong for what they are

Dr. Kinsey's research said that everyone lives on a spectrum of bisexuality. I think he was right, judging from what I see.
