Does bisexuality make more sense to you?

Question

I'm not looking for an argument here, but I always felt that bisexuality makes the most sense when it comes to liking a person - it's like, we become attracted to the person.. not the gender.

I see a good looking boy who's down to earth, I'd be interested. I see a pretty girl who's down to earth, i'd interested.

Love shouldn't have boundaries between genders.

Answer 1

if you are only attracted to the person and not the gender, that is pansexuality, not bisexuality...look it up

Answer 2

Perhaps, objectively, rationally.

The problem is love and attraction are about our feelings which are subjective and irrational. Therefore bisexuality, in a practical sense, makes most sense to those of us who are bisexual.

Answer 3

yea your right, but that is from a bisexual perspective. some people feel a mush stronger attraction to a particular gender over others and a complete lack of attraction to the other gender. tru ppl can love people of all gender, but im not sure if i could fall in love with all genders in that special way.

Answer 4

i agree with you, love is love, but not everyone sees it that way.  so i just go with the flow

Answer 5

Makes more sense to me.

I'm bi, and I really can't understand the straight, or g*y perspective

Answer 6

I hate how people have made it into a trend, that really makes me angry. But I agree, a person should be judged by their character not whats between their legs.  

Answer 7

I like people, not parts.

I never understood how monosexuals would rule out someone because of their parts.

Honestly, speaking as an evolutionary biologist, bisexuality makes the most sense to me both scientifically and personally. I honestly expect it to be the default sexual orientation of the future.

I don't think the current thing is "a trend" so much as an end to the monosexist agenda of bierasure. People are finally learning that, yes, you can like both!

Answer 8

You are quite correct.

Unfortunately, too many people are interested in the gender as their sexual preference leads them into a particular sexual act, or a particular physical asset

Answer 9

My experience says bi are only in it for a good time.  

Get you into bed then go back to the acceptable partner, a girlfriend who is there for social events.   A sort of two legged show pony.  

  

Answer 10

That works for some people, and doesn't work for others.

Answer 11

yeh makes sense to me (i'm bi) but wont for many others.  

Answer 12

I used to think i was bi as i would like some guys...but as i got older i realized i could never be able to be emotionally intimate with a guy...because im a L*****n

Answer 13

Yes. But if your straight and you saw a pretty girl who is down to earth you would be friends, its ok to love a friend you just don't want to f*** them

Answer 14

It certainly expands one's options.  But the term is too clinical.  I've had both kinds of s*x, but I wouldn't call myself "bi-sexual," only g*y.  I'm not a specimen on a slide, thanks.  

Answer 15

i get what your saying but it still kinda confuses me.  

Answer 16

makes sense to me, too. but not everyone is wired that way. sometimes, even though there's an attraction to someone, it's automatically 'turned off' because of gender and the attraction is changed to 'merely interest as friends'.  that's speculation on my part - i'm  bisexual, so i don't really know what a homosexual or heterosexual really goes through - just like they don't know what i (we) go through.
