A twist on the question about if you would become straight if it was a choice. If you chose to become bisexual, you wouldn't lose your current sexual attractions.

Love your question though I've got far too much from this side of the river to think how exhausting to operate both sides could be!
Wish you luck!

Yes. Yes. Yes.
Think of it this way: There are six billion people on the planet, and if humans were bisexual, my number of potential dates would double: That includes very smart, interesting, and intelligent people. That may be a simplification, but I love qualities in both men and women, and I would have no problem if I were not heterosexual. I can look at a copy of Vogue magazine, for instance, and admire how a woman dresses or photographs, but I feel nothing more. If I were bisexual, would be like looking through another lens, another world. I think it would be fantastic.
Not to mention, there wouldn't be as many problems with miscommunication, as there are between men and women.

Nope, I think bisexuals probably have it harder than gays in some ways. You get backlash from the gay and straight community. Plus it's a little harder to find role models and resources. Plus I couldn't image being attracted to both sexes, it sounds tiring and complicated. I just rather stick to woman only. A heck no I wouldn't want to be straight, being a lesbian is great :)

Too late, I'm already bisexual!
I'm not sure if being bisexual is all it's cracked up to be. Bisexuality catches a lot of flack from both the "straights" and the "gays".
Straight people tend to think that bisexual people are still just as "morally reprehensible" as homosexuals (even though homosexuality isn't "morally reprehensible"), and gay people tend to think that bisexual people are really just gay people who are "too afraid to be all the way gay".
Both points of view are false. It sucks.

Everyone being bisexual sure would be a great way of eliminating homophobia, biphobia and heterophobia all in one go!! Not only that, it will make everyone available to each other. None of that nonsense of the agony of falling for a straight person.

No, although this is a really good question.
Being gay is who I am, and I like my friends. I'm a perfect Kinsey 6, so even imagining something different is extremely difficult. I've been out of the closet since 1975, so trying to retread this old tire would likely lead to a blow-out.

I'm still trying to figure out if maybe that's what I already am.
I'm a female to male transsexual and I'm sexually attracted to bio women, other pre-op female to male transsexuals, and post-op transwomen.
I'm not attracted to bio men, pre-op male to female transsexuals, or post-op female to male transsexuals (bottom surgery). Basically I'm attracted to vaginas but not penises.
So...I don't really KNOW the proper "label" for that sexual orientation. Because it spans both genders, just not both sexes.

I already am bisexual. And I wouldn't trade it for heterosexuality or homosexuality.

Um, but what about us who already are bisexual? Does that mean we'd have to choose one or the other? Or would we have to choose to be A-sexual?
Dang, that really stinks.
