if guys don't know my sexuality, it's pretty easy for me to be friends with them. however i've never met a guy who didn't start being gross/rude/offensive/all three when i told them. girls are okay, except they usually pull that "don't have a crush on me!" shit which .. gets exhausting.
Same. I also noticed someone say if he'd approach a girl he'd come across as interested. Well, for me that is a non-issue, because a) she'd realise in less than 30 seconds that I'm not into her and b) my appearance is so unintimidating that not even her boyfriend would see me as a threat
I'm somewhat Bisexual, so no. But that's mainly because I've worked hard on improving my social skills ever since Senior year of college, to the point where I'm now working at a movie theater, and I have almost no social anxiety or nervousness left. I can practically talk to anyone. Its still tough to strike up a conversation with a stranger, which is why dating will still be a hurdle, but when people come up to me, I know how to handle myself.
For me, I'm more comfortable around women because they can understand me better. Around guys, though, it always seems that I have to be masculine.
Depends on the guy. Some of the guys in my grade are awful and I'd never want to speak to them, so I have a hard time talking to them. (very transphobic, my friend and I overheard them talking today and it was hard to take) Other guys are super cool and I don't mind talking to them. Just depends!
In short, no. I tend to be equally good friends with all genders, but guys stay away from me because they assume that I'm attracted to them. Apparently, in their minds boys and girls can't be just friends.
I've always found it a little easier to talk to guys but most of my friends are girls. It's not difficult for me to talk to girls but guys are almost always easier to talk to for me.
Nah, well not any more so than any other gender/sex. I used to have a difficult time talking to men because I've pretty much lived in an exclusively female household since age 8 but since I started dating my partner I've gotten better about that.
I tend to not like being around people either way. However, my friends are a good mix of males and females (the females tending to be more masculine than average). The only reason why I have more female friends recently is because they make out 75% of my program (if not more).
I suppose I find it a little easier to talk to females. Talking to guys can be a little difficult, I have to try harder to be less awkward with some guys.
I find it a lot harder to talk to males than females, especially because 99% of my friends are female and are very accepting of my change. And most of my guy friends wont talk to me at all, and try to not be associated with me if possible. So thats just my take on it.
I'm a lesbian, and I'm fine talking to guys. It's just when they start flirting with me that it gets really awkward... There are some times, though, that they can be really annoying and immature, but I guess that could be because I'm still a freshman in high school.
I'm bi as well, and although I'm pretty awkward in all respects anyway, I find it easier to talk to women as opposed to men. This depends on whether I'm attracted to a certain person of either sex, though, because I just generally screw myself over in any conversation I have with a crush.
No way! I'm 110% more comfortable talking to women than straight men. I don't exactly enjoy the company of a lot of straight men, anyway. Without being too stereotypical, they just don't interest me with the conversation they carry.
Like some others opposite sex doesn't really work for me. On the whole I've always found it easier to talk to guys mainly because of my interests. I've always been paranoid when talking to women that they think I have a hidden agenda. Although saying this I am socially super awkward and as a result don't go out much.
Not really. I have a bunch of guy friends and I was raised with mostly guys to be friends with so that might be part of it. It could also be just who I spend time with. I've only had issues talking to people if I'm attracted to them, if they scare me (which is very rare) or if I know they don't like me
