Is Bi Real?

[elemental06]

Ok, i am straight. But i do have some friends who are gay and bi.

The thing about being Bi is, i really don't see why its available. It doesn't seem like a realistic concept. your either one or the other...

There is such thing as being curious, we are all like that sometimes. Some are a lot more curious then other, yet i don't think Bi should be a real thing. Bisexuality seems like something that was created to make coming out of the closet an easier experience. Now it seems like a trend.

[Lego]

I kind of agree with you on that one. Really, you are one or the other. I think it comes with curiosity or maybe you just like both. Who knows

[JackShephard]

I could say that I am attracted to both sexes. And I can see me in a relationship with ether. It's not about "let's have sax with anything that has a pulse" for me. I just find both genders sexually attractive and to be honest, I would say that I am more partial to men. So I see what you are saying. I see it as a needle on a gage that reads from "I like men" to "I like women" and I am somewhere in between. In the middle, slightly slanted towards men.

[Cognizant]

It very much exsists, buddy. How doesn't it seem realistic?

[Dreaming Cannibal]

Mm. I find this rather insulting.. I respect your opinion on the matter, but of course I see this in a very different way. There are so many concepts in relation to sexuality and gender identity that saying one or the other is not a realistic concept is almost inadmissible for me. People identify with each concept (Hetero-, Homo, Bi-, Pan, etc.) so they can feel part of a society. I identify as bisexual because I am sexually attracted to both and exclusively females and males. This is not a phase I'm going through, or curiosity. It is part of who I am.

[Agaisnttherules]

I kind of see your point with this.

[JAMES-]

While you are entitled to your opinion you cannot say that because you dont see how its possible for people to be sexually attracted to both genders that it shouldn't exist. It is unfair to say that it doesn't exist because it does.

In my opinion, its becoming an increasing trend because people are becoming more open to the idea of homosexuality and are more comfortable with it. People who are 'in the closet' are feeling more comfortable with coming out about who they are.

Also to say that you don't know why bisexuality is 'available' makes it sound like it is a product you can buy off the shelf.

[Mortal Coil]

Sexuality is a spectrum. It looks kind of like this:
Straight--------Curious----------Bi-----------------------Gay

Everyone is somewhere on the spectrum, and Bi people are in the middle. It definitely exists.

[Stronger]

I agree with Alex, it excits; it doesn't make it easier, since when can Guys or Girls not like both? I don't see how it's not possible? Care to explain further?

[Swagging god]

I see where ur going with this and I get it, but just for the heck of it let me give you some definitions that might change your mind these definitions come from the highest ranking poll answers on my youtube account comment section

Straight - A person attracted to the opposite
"Straight-but-Curious" A person usually but not always a guy who is sexually attracted to females but is slighty to an extent willing to experiment with a guy.
Bi- Being sexually attracted to both male and female.
Gay- Being sexually attracted to the same sex

As evil. angel showed the scale straight___straight-but-curious_______Bisexual_________Gay

[MemoriesLost]

I'm bisexual :/
I am sexually attracted to both sexes.
I HAVE been for about three years.
It really does exist.

[TheultimatesmilyXD]

Ummm i dont think u really get to choose wether or not bi exists im bi and have been fir a while now

[Giles]

Are you joking or trolling or something?
You make no sense whatsoever.

[Gandalf]

yet i don't think Bi should be a real thing. Bisexuality seems like something that was created to make coming out of the closet an easier experience. Now it seems like a trend.

First off Rocko. You're not in control of anybody's sexuality, feelings and emotions accept your own.

Secondly, it wasn't created to make coming out easier. It's just a word used to sum up physical/romantic attraction for both sexes. It does not make coming out easier at all.-Hence why I haven't come out.

[Crescendo]

Some may argue that "bi" is just a term used by gay/lesbians so that every once in a while they can have a heterosexual relationship and feel normal just one more time. But, I consider myself bi and I don't find that to be the case (althought feel free to continue believeing whatever you wish). I find that there are numerous situations when I'm attracted to guys, and then I'll find myself attracted to girls. Its, of course, incredibly confusing. I don't usually try to read into it. I just let it be what it is.

[boosterboy1]

It does exist, im testament to that

Questions for Both Boys and Girls :arrow: Teen Sexuality

[Coolboi]

here it is .
straight : (st8) I only like the opposite sex only !
bisexual : (bi) I like both guys an girls !
gay ; I like same sex only !
it's real !

[Giles]

I disagree with you on this. In my experience it makes coming out a hell of a lot easier, plus there's so many more bisexual people than there are gay, openly anyway. Whether or not they're actually gay and saying they're bi is irrelevant, being bi seems to be generally more acceptable for most people - most definitely where I come from.

[Princess Ariel]

It is most certainly real. You can be attracted to anything, and everything really? So how is Bisexuality not a "real" sexuality?

[itsjustme9000]

well i see you point but what I think BI or CURIOUS is so if you don't know if your gay or str8 being Bi or "Curious" is your way of seeing weather your gay or str8

[Smeagol]

I might be bisexual. But I might be lesbian. But the thing is, if people are attracted to both genders, damn it, it's real.

[JJSSHH]

Thats absurd. Thats like saying you cant like cats or dogs: only one or the other. People can be emotionally and or sexually attracted to both sex's. Dont be small minded.

[Biscuithead13]

Well, I'm living proof bi is real. I look guys and girls, but I like guys more. The thing about being bisexual is, there is a wide range of how much you like one or the other gender, but regardless you still like both. Think of it like this, I'm like 67% gay, 33% straight.....meaning I like guys more.

[Weeping_Angel]

Bi is as real as any sexual orientation is. What if I asked if being gay was "real"?

[Giles]

Well it's clearly not, because to the OP "It doesn't seem like a realistic concept.".

[Weeping_Angel]

Well it's clearly not, because to the OP "It doesn't seem like a realistic concept.".

Well, The OP doesn't decide science. I mean, bi is a real thing, if people are bi. That's all there is to it.

[Magus]

Are you being serious? You should consider Bisexuality more real than homo and heterosexuality.

[Alexander The Great]

I get horny enough around girls as it is...so I'm glad I'm not bi :P that would be unbearable xD

[HeroesAndCons]

No, Bisexuality is totally fake.

That made me LOL.

Bisexuality is real though, just like homosexuality (I have a bisexual friend so theres a proof out of many others that bi exists). And I don`t really get how you can say that sexuality is "available" or not. Its not something you can choose to be.

[xDILLIGAFx]

Saying that 'Bi isn't real and that you're either gay or straight is the same as someone saying there is no such thing as someone being Agnostic and they either have to be religious or an atheist, You can be bisexual to different degrees, for example someone could like guys both sexually and emotionally but only like women in a sexual manner or vice versa.

[Zeh Crazy]

I think a lot of bisexual people if they knew what it was, would identify themselves as pansexual. Being bisexual does seem to be a trend nowadays, which is annoying. I think most of those people are just bicurious. However, I do firmly believe that bisexuality exists. A person can most definitely be attracted to two sexes. But bisexuality stops at the genders of male and female, and their separate personalities. Pansexual is where you are attracted to both genders, a person who is both genders (hermaphradite), or you just don't care what the gender of a person is and you like them for their personality, not their gender. It's having an attraction to a person, regardless of their gender. It's like being bisexual, but more specific, in that yes, you find both genders attractive, but that it also doesn't matter which gender your partner is, because you like their personality.

I agree and disagree with you. I agree on what you say, I think most bi's out there are just bi-curious too but that many bisexuals would identify as pansexuals? In my case it is not. As I have it understood, pansexuality is the attraction towards people of all gender identity and biological sex and bisexuality is the attraction to males and females exclusively. This said, I like men and women, but to say I like a man that identifies as woman or a woman that identifies as a man? i think not… Then again this is just me, some other bisexual might identify best with pan rather than bi, but most people -I'd like to think- would actually try to self-examine before coming out.

[leafgreenangel]

i think confused gay and straight people are overusing the term bi, so it doesn't seem realistic. i believe that half of the people on here that say bi aren't sure of their sexuality and misuse the therm bi. all this confusion confuses people on what bi actually is. i believe that real bi people exist.

[ianian]

it just means you like guys and girls

[Weeping_Angel]

it just means you like guys and girls

Hmmmm we realize that. The question is, do you believe it's real. Look above for my answer, I'm too lazy to quote it

[Giles]

Well, The OP doesn't decide science. I mean, bi is a real thing, if people are bi. That's all there is to it.

I was being sarcastic :)

I realized that after I had posted and I was too lazy and tired to edit.

If there wasn't Bi then there probably wouldn't be functioning orgies now would there.

[Giles]

If there wasn't Bi then there probably wouldn't be functioning orgies now would there.

You can have all male and all female orgies.

[jjsmitty]

I can assure you that Bi is a real thing, for the past 3 years ive had both male and female relationships and enjoyed both equally, although I seem to get along with men better. For me both sexes are highly attractive and I would happily spend the rest of my life with either sex. I can see why you would question it as you have the exact same opinion of my father, but its simple, I really like both sexes.

[Jhcx]

Its all about the SEX :cool: No seriously it is. I'd do anything or so i think i would. personally if you want to date a guy in the morning that's fine if you want to date a Girl in the evening that's also acceptable. If you want to have sex with them Nobody is objecting. What does all this make you BI how because your not sticking with just one Gender your switching between too. You not loving them although you can. But doesn't mean... Imagine if GAY was the straight and if you went of and had sex with the opposite gender would that make you Straight(Gay) for life. No it doesn't you can still be Bi because who knows you may want to be Gay and not have people judge you .

Sorry if this post makes absolutely no sense what so ever but I was on the bus one day and it just annoyed me so much :D

[Harley Quinn]

Yes there's such a sexuality as being bi. No I don't think it's "real" and that's coming from a lesbian.

[Jupiter]

Ok, i am straight. But i do have some friends who are gay and bi.

The thing about being Bi is, i really don't see why its available. It doesn't seem like a realistic concept. your either one or the other...

There is such thing as being curious, we are all like that sometimes. Some are a lot more curious then other, yet i don't think Bi should be a real thing. Bisexuality seems like something that was created to make coming out of the closet an easier experience. Now it seems like a trend.

I know that it's going away but.. if anything curiousness is not real, and it's just an excuse for bisexuality and shutting it out. I am not saying this is true, you are what you are. I mean, some people are sexually attracted to dead things, which is ok. You are what you are.

I am bisexual, and I know that I am both emotionally attracted and sexually attracted to both sexes. I don't know how to tell you anything but I am bi, and if I am it, then it must be real, right?

Bisexuality wasn't made to make things easier, it is completely different from being gay, because gay people do not necessarily feel attracted to women, and straight are not necessarily attracted to men, ya see?

[Samuel.Compton]

I think you can be attracted to both sexes. but when your in a relationship with a guy or girl, labeling yourself as bi, says your still open to the other sex. If your in a relationship with someone, and you still consider yourself bi.. Doesnt that mean that your not "commited" to the one your in a relationship with??

[Fourth Dimension]

it most def exists im bi and im sexually and emotionally attracted to both i mean i could date a guy and have both a physical and emotional attraction to him and truly love him and the same for a girl

[danny7]

im bi-curious and i read this n i have to agree that maybe im just curious right now?

[nicholas79]

Yeah, I can see your what you mean. Bisexuality is real because I happen to be bi, and because you are strait, I see why you are curious. I just want you to know it is real.

[Lovemeorleaveme]

Its "available" because some people including me like both genders.

[norcaldude18]

as i have matured, i have learned that there are a lot of things are real even if they dont make sense.

[JamHaychUK]

Yes. It is real.

Some people are straight and only like the opposite sex.
Some people are gay and only like the same sex.
Some people are bi and like both sexes to some extent.
Some people and pan and like all people regardless of gender identity.
Some people are asexual and aren't sexually interested in anyone.

Is it really that hard for some people to understand? :P

[Perfectly Flawed]

Well being bisexual myself I would definitely say it's real.

[Syvelocin]

The entire world and everything in it is GREY. Don't try to look at it as if there's only black and white, because that doesn't exist in anything at all. People who see in black and white are only fooling themselves.

And while we're at it, there isn't only one shade of grey either...

[YOUNGFLYGUY]

I feel like its real.....u can like boys and girls
