Don’t be offended, correct me if i'm wrong and don’t think this is my way of coming on to you if you are a straight guy; just hear me out. I believe everyone has an interest in both sexes. I’m not saying both interests are equally large for everyone, on the contrary: most people’s interest in the opposite sex is far greater than the other, but I am convinced that there is always an interest in the same as well.
So why do I still say that I’m bisexual then? Easy: you need to draw the line somewhere. I consider my interest in the same sex significant enough to label myself as bisexual. Besides, the last thing I want to do is complicate things by calling myself “straight with a large preference for girls”; that makes sense, right?
The potential to be bisexual is not the same as being bisexual.
Its not about sex, you see you maynot like to sleep with one but you can always say which one is good looking within the samesex. you maynot sleep with one but you can always have feelings. there are so many guys out there i wont wanna do but some i'll do. depends
say if i have a chance with brad pitt and a chance with angelina julie. i would go for angelina julie cus i prefer women then later on i may catch up to brad pitt, i think michael pitt is hotter then brad pitt . you see feelings, it all matters
You're saying all this because you're looking at things from the POV of a person who's "bi".
And you're coming from a POV of someone who is "straight." What's the difference? There is no right and wrong here.
I'm not "bisexual" in the sense of DO I want to sleep and be with other women, but I can be turned on by thinking about it in a fantasy or watching lesbian porn. Does that make me bisexual? Maybe, maybe not. Will I act upon it? No, not at this point in my life because I'm married ... If I was single, and wanting to experiement, why not try it once. But, it's not going to happen so it's best left a fantasy.
I think it's neat that someone who is truely bisexual can fall inlove with a person, doesn't matter whether or not which body part is involved.
You know men say this to women all the time! They're always like you know all women are lesbians anyway. If I tell a guy that I've never had a sexual experience with another female they assume I'm too scared to admit it or that I will in the future which is not true at all - I'm totally straight. But I've always wondered how a man would feel if I suggested the same to him i imagined he'd be very offended then become overly masculine to make sure I don't think he's gay in anyway. Which is why I've never made such a statement so thanks Jaye for saying what I've been wanting to - clearly these men didn't like the idea at all - neither do I!

This doesn't bother me at all. Only thing that does bother me is how pop culture makes it seem more widespread than it actually is.
I couldn't care less about what people think regarding my sexual orientation, because I'm comfortable in my own shell. Furthermore, considering where I live, it's open season on all the sexes. I've been approached by gay/bi males, but so has every other guy in this city, and maybe elsewhere as well.

I cannot attest to the fact that everyone is bi-sexual, but I thought the Kinsey studies might harbour some interest for you. These studies were conducted in 1948 (males) and 1953 (females) in the United States (primarily) and the results are very interesting. One of the factor’s Kinsey considered was the subject's capacity for homosexuality and bi-sexuality.
Here are some of the conclusions from his studies:
Males:
“Kinsey estimated that nearly 46% of the male population had engaged in both heterosexual and homosexual activities, or "reacted to" persons of both sexes, in the course of their adult lives (p. 656, Male). 11.6% of white males (ages 20-35) were given a rating of 3 (about equal heterosexual and homosexual experience/response) on the 7-point Kinsey Heterosexual-Homosexual Rating Scale for this period of their lives (Table 147, p. 651, Male). “
Females:
“Kinsey found only a very small portion of females with exclusively homosexual histories. He reported that between 6 and 14% of females (ages 20-35) had more than incidental homosexual experience in their histories. (p. 488, Female). 7% of single females (ages 20-35) and 4% of previously married females (ages 20-35) were given a rating of 3 (about equal heterosexual and homosexual experience/response) on the 7-point Kinsey Heterosexual-Homosexual Rating Scale for this period of their lives.(Table 142, p. 499, Female).”
Here is a link to the rest of the study. Very provocative, especially considering the era.
