Am I basically bisexual or lesbian? I talk to other bisexual women who like say they need a man in their life or both. I generally could just have lesbian sex and I would be fine I don't need to be with a man or a woman just one or the other. I generally thought with dating that I date guys. I've never wanted to date a woman or thought about having a girlfriend. Does this sound like a lesbian?

No. ...................

If you are in doubt give the lesbian life a try, then you will know how it feels like.

then what would it make me?

It makes you curious about your sexuality, which is quite common.

Posted

Basically no. People with same sex attraction behave the same way hetero people do in that they notice other persons of their gender instantly for sexual attractiveness. A gay woman will act just like anyone would when they see a chance for romance. But that means another woman.

 

 

 

It seems you like the idea of sex with another woman but you don't really want all the interaction that comes with getting to know another woman (dating, chasing). Men often have a fantasy life in which a spurting penis is big turn on to us. I have seen here on LS many times where this penis fascination has caused men to ask if they are gay. I am "liberal" but hetero--but because I'm liberal, I offer advice that it's OK to have a same-sex fantasy but the proof of same-sex orientation is indeed attraction to everything else about someone of the same sex--not their genitalia. To me and other guys who allow themselves the occasional exciting notion to actually see a real guy as a sex object is foreign and doesn't even occur. Maybe you feel something like that toward sex with women but are basically hetero. If you date guys, you must feel attraction to men--or some type of man.

 

 

In any event, go easy on yourself.

well currently I am actually.

Then it's your own decision to decide, on whether that life is for you. Nobody will judge you for being bisexual here.

I wrote this wrong what I meant to say is like in general as far as my sex life currently I have sex with a woman like I haven't been with a guy in a year and I haven't really wanted to. As far as sexually my needs are all met. With a woman. Same with guys too. I don't mind being with a guy or a girl but I just don't need to be with men or both. Idk if that counts as bi or lesbian because logically I could live my life as a lesbian and not need to be with a man physically. I never though have wanted to have a girlfriend but I don't want a boyfriend either.

Whatever makes you sexually satisfied should be just fine. Just uphold your safety whichever way you swing. Labels are not needed.

no but my question is would this be a lesbian or a type of bisexuality?

Posted

You are Bisexual meaning you can be with both men and women and not necessarily at the same time.

Posted

If you are attracted to both but are satisfied with having sex with a woman, you count as bisexual, in the regular definition of the word.

but if I chose to just stick with women wouldnt i be living a lesbian life

Why do you feel like you have to label your sexuality? Some people take pride in a label of lesbian or bi or straight, maybe gives them more of a community or solid feeling identity , but I think it would be fine going through life being with who you feel like being with in the moment.

well I was just kind of curious what it equates to if I did just from now was with women even though I am attracted to men. I mean hypothetically I could be basically a lesbian and I wouldn't really necessarily need sex from men in general

idk right now my sex life consist of just lesbian sex and that's fine for now. I'm more focused on school and work then to be serious with anyone long term that's I'm strickly talking just about my sex life

Posted

Then don't let anybody judge you for being a lesbian, just do what works for you. Things can work just fine being lesbian.

Posted

you are as much a lesbian as I am Donald Trump

Posted

Yes indeed sleeping with a married woman is frowned upon if you are hiding it and the man doesn't approve.

 

Being a lesbian with another dating woman is just fine. Thanks for qualifying basil ;)

I'm not looking for approval and I'm not looking to date anyone. I guess this is just a realization for me more so it's kind of like why did I began to identify as straight to begin with I think because my norm is with dating to date a man maybe someday I'd want a boyfriend but not a girlfriend. Right it doesn't seem to matter because I am not into dating I just want a sex life with nothing attached basically. I just always hear from bisexual women they need men in their lives sexully but I don't find that in common so I guess that's why I didn't know where that left me.
