Is it accurate right to say this as someone who is bi with a heavy preference?

    Like if a bi Person is 90% men and 10% women and occasionally finds women attractive/rare, has not found that many women they attracted, would it still be accurate if they said they are attracted to women sexually?

    I think that sometimes we get caught up on labels. Sexuality is a spectrum, and sometimes it can shift as well. I think that as long as the person is comfortable with how they chose to label their attractions, I think that is what matters.

    If it feels accurate for you, then it's accurate. Attraction to women may be rare (for you), but if it's very real when it happens it would seem entirely reasonable to label as bisexual. You are the person who has to live with the label though and it's not the place of anyone else to question it. Bisexual is an entirely reasonable and valid label for many millions of people.
