I also think once it becomes more socially acceptable to be gay the issue will become much less cloudy.įor me I know that I like guys, period. I think the Kinsey scale is a good idea, however, I also think that as a rule people tend to congregate at one end of the scale or the other and that true bisexuality (that is to say, equal sexual/emotional attraction to both genders) is quite uncommon. So to be honest you'll probably get a hundred answers from a hundred people if you asked for an in depth thought out definition for "What is bisexuality?" Some answers will be black and white but most will be in the thirteen or however many shades of gray. Whereas yet others think you need both in an equal fashion before you can consider bisexuality. Others believe deep emotional can be bisexual linking.

Some believe a sexual attraction deems Bisexual. Of course that varies from definition to definition, this is one reason bisexuality can be controversial. We find the one gender physically and emotionally to be the one, and there may be situations before (prior dating, marriage, etc.) which may seem bisexual but all in all its the true attraction in the end that determines it.Īnyhow, I do believe a lot of individuals are bisexual to a degree. Now there are those of us which can consider ourselves gay men or lesbians because we don't quite fit that middle. Thus they lean more towards the gender they prefer but all in all still are bisexual with no strict preference. Often you will hear individuals make a statement that I am attached to men like this, and women like that and I can co exist with both but prefer (insert gender here). That is where bisexuality comes in I do suppose. Whereas, others can be in the middle but its a leaning middle. There are those which feel strict physical and emotional attachment to the opposite or same gender. Sexuality to some extent can be considered fluid. I personally believe that Bisexuality does indeed exist. I think the comments that some (not all) gay men make about there not being any truly bisexual men are based on (1) the reality that some gay men think, at some point in their self-awareness and/or coming out process that they were bisexual themselves, and they project this as a universal phenomenon onto others and (2) sexual politics within the gay community. I tend to think that there are people all over the place on the Kinsey scale (and at different places perhaps at different points in their lives, for some people). So I'm pretty much the opposite of what you describe. I'm much more attracted to women, sexually and otherwise, than I am to men, but every now and then if the right situation 'clicks' with another guy I can be interested in taking it to the next level.

With women a male bisexual may show affection but not nearly the same lust as he would for a man.s For instance they can have sex with another man but have trouble seeing them outside that light. On the the other hand most male bisexuals are more sexually attracted to males.
