Answer 1

I see where you're coming from.

I'm in that state of in between...and trust me, it sucks.

At the risk of giving TMI to the entire internet, porn has a lot to do with it. Not in a creepy, I'm always looking at porn type of way, but in a way.

With photos and in life I find myself attracted to guys (I am also a guy) Though, when it comes to photos of women I find them attractive, but I'm not turned on, if that makes sense. But out in the real world I find myself attracted to women.

I would have no problem being gay, and I would be relieved if I was straight (I don't think anyone would choose to go through the struggles of a homosexual) but I just want to be one way. I don't want to be married to a woman but checking out men, and I don't want to be with a man but checking out women.

If someone is Bi-Curious, they are anything. They are just going through hormonal changes, and I think everyone goes through a Bi-Curious state, but it doesn't last long.

If I were to say I'm Bi-Curious, which I tend to do, I'd be lying. I haven't been with a man, so I keep telling myself that there's a chance I wouldn't be into that sort of thing. Although I get off to it. Just lying to myself, basically.

Deep down though, I think I know I'm not necessarily bisexual, but open. Open to whoever I can love, and have them love me back.

Answer 2

Okay, having been there myself, I can answer this question. Remember before you ever had sex, and you were curious as to what it was all about? Maybe you fantasized about it, maybe you thought of a particular person you would like to try it with? Maybe you didn't really have a specific person in mind, you just didn't really know what it was all about.
Most of us think we know what it's about, but until we do it, we don't really know what it is, right?
Well, it's very similar with Bi-curious people. You see, until you experience it at least once, you really don't know. So, maybe you have a small attraction (or maybe even a big one) for a member of the same sex. So maybe you find out that same person has a small (or big) attraction for you as well. So maybe you decide to experiment a bit.
Well, until that experiment is made, you don't really know, do you? That's called bi-curious. And maybe you have to experiment more than once (more than one partner, not necessarily at the same time. In fact, I normally advise against experimenting with more than one partner at the same time. Find out for sure one way or the other first, then make sure each of the other partners knows what you're doing and approves).
And yes, you are either bi or not, but most people don't know for sure until they follow their urges to really know.

Answer 3

Ok, people define they're own sexuality. Sexuality isn't the kind of thing you can so easily sort in groups in my opinion. I mean, I'm a teen, and I prefer saying I just don't know, but if someone asks if I'm bi-curious, I'll generally say yes. Almost everyone has questioned their sexuality, and that's all bi-curious is. Testing the waters. I see absolutely nothing wrong with that.
BTW, could you answer this question for the troops? Thanks.

Answer 4

Bi-curious means you want to have sexual relations with the same gender but aren't sure if you like them as a crush, like emotional attraction. Being bi-curious is all about physical attraction.

Answer 5

Some people can jump in a swimming pool right away, others need to dip their toe in first to test the water. What does it matter how they each get into the pool so long as everyone gets wet?

I say let people go at their own pace & figure things out for themselves.

Answer 6

I think that BI-Curious are people that like being Bi but are scared to.Your friend David answering!

Answer 7

i don't care either way because i'll never have sex with another guy, but as a man i definately have lesbian tendancies...i've never met a woman who wasn't at least bi-curious...
and if a guy is bi, or curious, then he is gay.
don't mean to sound harsh, but that's the way it is in my world.

Answer 8

just accept it a large proportion of the population will at some point become curious about being sexually/romanticly involved with a member of the same sex but if you never feel this well it would be like trying to explain colour to a blind person

Answer 9

i think that being bi-curious means to be bi but not really sure if you want to be gay or straight. I guess it could also just mean that you're bi and "bi-curious" is just a nickname.

Answer 10

Some people aren't full sure of their sexuality, it's not that they are choosing (at least most of them) they are just confirming whether they are gay or not, and for some people they have to physically experiment to know. Most of the time I agree, I don't see why, but put yourself in their shoes. Everyone is different, and everyone gets to know themselves in different ways. Now those who are trying it just simply to try to become gay, lesbian, or bisexual is silly, that's just wanting attention.
