What do you think about Bisexuality...?

Question

I'm bi, and after a long time, I told my mates, and even my family.
Although I lost some people in the process (And gaining more, stronger friendships) I'm way better off, but there views on the matter still irritates me... So I was just wonderingwhat you though.

Answer 1

sorry to hear that you have lost some family and friends.. it's really sad that these people can't accept you. i'm sure you are a kind and loving person. and although you may not like the fact that you are bi, it's great that you have had the courage to admit it and accept it.

we are who we are. if we are straight, gay or bi, it really shouldn't matter. as long as we are able to live out lives to the fullest.

i wish you the best of luck and hope you can live a strong and happy life..

Answer 2

I didnt get bi sexuality for a well there untill i was out at gay club with muy mate. I always believed you were one or the other but a girl kissed me and it was the best god dam kiss i have ever had i had butterflys and everything so now i wld say that am bi and i still think its being rather greedy though but u may as well have best of both worlds

Answer 3

The way I look at it is- We are the way we are, I don't have a problem or an opinion about other peoples sexuality, to me people are just people and the only reason I would dislike someone is if they gave me a reason to, regardless of race,sex,sexual preference. Gay, Bisexual, Straight isn't who we are everybody is a person and what we do and who we do it with behind closed doors is no body's business but our own as long as it's not illeagal or hurtful to others. Our sexual prefrences are not our identities it's only a small part of what makes us 'us'. I wouldn't bat an eyelid if my little boy came to me one day and said 'Mum I think I am Gay' I would jusy say 'Ok Son bring your boyfriend home so I can meet him' I just don't have a problem with it in the slightest. I am one of those 'live and let live' people, I just think there are so many more important things to worry about then wether someone I know might be Bi or Gay we are all people how we live our lives is our own business. Good luck and be happy.XX

Answer 4

I'm bi and am very happy. I was married to a man, and after I was divorced met a woman, fell in love, and was with her for over 10 years. I told my friends, family, and co-workers. Some of them don't understand, but then, I don't understand some of their relationships, either! Being in the closet was too much of a head game for me; once you start lying, when does it stop?

A couple of years ago, my girlfriend broke up with me, so now I'm with a guy I fell in love with. He knows I was with a woman for a long time, heck he's met her! I still have my rainbow sticker on my car. But I won't get married again. I hated it the first time-I don't like being part of an institution, especially based on property. I might consider it if my lesbian and gay friends can get married too.

Good luck!

Answer 5

I love it. I'm bisexual, and I admire and get turned on by bisexuality in other people. There can be nothing wrong with it in my mind, and I wish more people were bisexual!

But yes, you're right, there are so many stereotypes, misperceptions, myths, and outright hatred against bisexuals, from both sides, gay and straight. Bisexuality is a valid, real sexual orientation. We are NOT:

1) Greedy.
2) Confused.
3) In a 'phase'.
4) Indecisive.
5) Horny or sex-addicted or nympomaniacal.
6) People who want to have their cake and eat it, too.
7) Necessarily polyamorous or in open relationships.
8) Commitment-phobic or unfaithful.
9) Really gay or straight and in denial.
10) Really gay or straight but getting perks/avoiding condemnation by being bisexual.
11) Necessarily into group sex.
12) Necessarily equally split in their love of each sex.
13) Necessarily experienced with both sexes in order to call ourselves 'bisexual'.
14) The spreaders of disease from the gay community to straight.
15) When it all boils down to it, any different from you or I.

And no, not everyone is 'a little bit bisexual'. I believe strongly that there are people out there who are 100% straight or gay, and never dally along the lines in between. However, a good deal of us are somewhere in the middle, and acknowledge that by identifying themselves as bisexual.

Those are my thoughts on the matter. I'm always trying to educate people on bisexuality and battle biphobia and bi-invisibility.

Answer 6

I told my dad but not my mom and I am married to a great man, some people will be supportive and others not so much I think it is more confusing to be bi, so many more choices(lol) good for you for getting rid of the haters.

Answer 7

For some reason bisexuality seems to be much more common in women than it is in men.

For some reason men seem to enjoy watching women interract much more than women enjoy seeing bisexual men do the same thing.

I don't care who is what, and certainly wouldn't end a friendship if someone revealed that they were bi. I am completely straight, and so is my wife. Neither of us gets at all turned on by same sex interraction, which makes me a rare man and her a typical woman.

Answer 8

I think Bi women are possibly the most beautiful creatures on the planet.

Answer 9

I belive you should do what make you happy or should i say do whoever makes you happy. As long as no one gets hurt and your happy with yourself and can live with the outcome go for it, I think its good your honest with yourself about who your attracted to I'v always been curious about being with another woman but i'v never really followed it through (YET) but by knowing what you want makes it easer to achieve. Well done Keep being happy

Answer 10

Coming out is a life-changing event - something you will reflect on for the remainder of your life.

Bisexual, straight or gay - this is the way you were built - put together so to speak. So don't let the demented fundamentalists sway the way you lead your life. Live your life to the FULLEST!
