Q: Gay, Straight or Bi-sexual
asked by: diamondsz on October 3rd, 2008
Extremely eHealthy
I may have said somethings before that I reall shoudn't have but I have come to an agreement with myself on something.

Before my marriage, I dated a woman and didn't like it and well I did it again, I met an amazing person, who I thought was beautiful, with a great personality and I really enjoyed things this time around.

I'm assuming I would call myself Bi-sexual but I find gay people take bi as in sitting on a fence and well the straight guys think of threesomes, which I'm not into. It is like living in a world almost where I am being forced to choose but I have always been attracted to both sexes, need I give something up?

Alot of people judged the choices I made because I had a bad marriage, as we all know already(which is why I havent been on half as much) and well I think its irrelevant.

I look at what I am doing from the perspective of, Regardless of gender, race or religious status, if I am attracted to you and you have a great personality there is a potential for an amazing relationship.

I am not looking for acceptance, what I am looking for is answer as to why people look at bi-sexual the wya they do?

I don't broadly advertise it, I am not looking for couples and threesomes but I am looking for someone regadless of their status to be happy with, is that a bad thing?

No..its a good thing! =)
I am gay and I don't think Bisexuals are on the fence...I just think they are bi by design and that is how God made them. Be proud of your bisexuality and remember...no one walks in your shoes but you so who cares what any one thinks! I think your awesome just the way you are!

Me too!
I came to this site wondering what I really am, and I agree with you on not caring about sex, among other things. I personally have found that I mostly get attracted to sweet, a little feminine looking guys (think Ross the intern), and masculine looking women. What I like even more is a funny, strong and caring person, and now it looks like I'm actually attracted to the personality, not so much the appearance.
This has led me to wonder not only what orientation is, but what gender altogether is. How does it affect me to know what the person has in their pants? I have met many women that looked like guys at first, and I would like them just like any other guy. I think, based on the overall appearance thing, that this would not really imply bisexuality, since the person looks mostly male to me. The only portion where they're not male is between the legs (well, and the chest too), and I already said that this particular feature doesn't matter to me.
I was wondering, for those of you who are ~100% gay/straight, if you see someone that looks like the sex you're attracted to, but are actually the other sex - does that change anything? Is it really the anatomy that decides anything, or can the rest of the person's traits overshadow their sex?

Thank you, you put my thoughts into words, its not about what is between their legs but about personality, although you do have to be attracted to them.

I have always wondered what if a guy fell for a woman but found out she was trans, would he stay? I think gender affects us people a little too much, I think life is too short and you should love the one you're with.

I think there is a little bi-sexual in all of us women...Maybe men too...Just the way that we are made...Some of us venture and try it out and some don't...We just wonder...This has always been on my mind ever since I found the computer and dialed in the word "intercourse" on google...This I did about four years ago...Woman are beautiful...Sexually they have such a wonderful body to make love to...Add to this that being a woman they know how to please each other as they are one of these creatures and have the same inner workings.....I once wrote a blog "Women who love women make good lovers"....It was a great read...Really accepted....I didn't write it to push the lesbian side of life, but to tell of the woman's side of sexual love and the ways for a man to make love to her.....I embrace all aspects of sex....Only learning more of my own sexuality was I able to grasp the thinking of both sexes and see where many marriages fail.....

If I was younger and that hot babe of "yesteryear", who's to know that I may not have ventured a hot bout with a woman....Seeing I smile as I write this, it is still a pleaing thought....Yet, I am a completely hetero-sexual with just a dash of "wild woman" on the side....

Just my thoughts,
Caroline

Caroline, I also think that all women are bi Smile Or at least the straight ones are. I have always enjoyed the nude female body, probably to the point that my classmates thought I was gay back then. I also always preferred the company of guys, but now I think it's because in my country gender is a big deal, and it's hard to find a gender neutral person - all girls have to wear skirts/dresses and paint their faces and all that silly stuff. And I can never like anything in a dress! I just preferred the "cool" style of guys, free of all the pretending and over-acting of the girls. I used to say that I'm not a woman, but a human, in order to avoid being forced into that kind of behavior.

Since I moved to the US, I have found many women that dress neutral and act like a person, not a man or a woman. And that is the kind of person that I like - behaving as a human, maybe even combining the best qualities of both genders. To me too girly or too macho is just extreme, and therefore unattractive. Why not be kind and sensitive, but also playful and funny?

And I agree about women knowing how to please each other better, not that I have tried them, but I hope they are, since guys have been less than successful in providing pleasure Smile

Yeah, I was wondering about men too. Most men I've met are what I call "self-homophobic" and whatever they do, they have to point out in the end that they're not gay. As if anyone cares Smile
I saw a study recently where a group of men were shown gay porn and asked to evaluate their arousal. The men that were assessed to be homophobic (from a previous conversation) not only were more aroused than the other group (measured from penile enlargement) but also claimed that they did not get excited at all! Not saying that all men are like that, but wonder if men are socially less likely to admit it than women.

Not sure if it's OK to post links to other sites, so check out the video "Mad TV - Gay Straight Guys" on YouTube.
I think it's a very good example Smile

Just a girl, What country are you from?

I hate dresses btw lol, I guess I am gender neutral as well, minus the fact I can actually be in a relationship with a woman.

I have more guy friends than I do woman but I find some woman very frivolous, from the sense they don't make themselves important. Its a lack of respect to me and others out there, who actually care about ourselves because of something so little as gender. In a grand scheme Gender is used as a way to opress, educating oneself is the best thing we could do.

Its nice to see other people out there like me, thanks for making my day, the same goes for all of you.

Opps, I guess my last link looked like advertising. Anyway, I'm sure you can find stuff for yourself if you wanted to Smile

I am from Bulgaria, and right now gender roles are not all that rigid, but as a teen of course everyone wants to see you surrounded by male admirers, so you're supposed to be dressed with your best. It's not so much that I wanted to be dressed as a boy, I just didn't care what I was wearing and could not (still can't) comprehend why someone would want to buy new clothes every week.

LOL, what do you mean "I am gender neutral as well, MINUS the fact I can actually be in a relationship with a woman"? Smile Wouldn't a gender neutral person be able to have relationships with anyone? Smile

Yeah, I guess there are many like us, apparently, and I hope gender becomes less and less important, and less dependednt on your sex or orientation. From personal experience gays are better, because they don't seem to be caught in one gender role, but are just themselves. But I may be wrong Smile

Thanks to all of you too!
