"You're either gay, straight, or lying."

>>>Now, before I get attacked, please respect my oppinion.

Then I'd ask you to respect my opinion that you're simply wrong.

Exactly.

Just because you're married or in a commited relationship with someone you still notice the hot waiter serving you.

 

How am I supposed to give respect when I don't get it?

Telling me that my oppinion (oppinions aren't factual, mind you) is 'simply wrong' is quite far from respect.

 

But if a bisexual person tells you that he/she actually likes both sexes and doesn't need to make a choice, why would you not believe it? Why do you think you know better than bisexuals themselves? It sounds like stubbornness to me.

 

What if I told you my opinion is that you don't exist?

I think, like most things, sexuality falls on a bell curve.

 

hmm..theres a thought. so..where does everything fall in the bell? i mean, what's the most common and least common things to be? has anyone ever done this poll?

 

Hehe, I like to say, "Hey, just because I've already ordered, doesn't mean I can't look at the menu." ;D

I do think that'd be an interesting study, too.

 

the shit is when youve ordered then see you missed something on the menu you would of prefered

 

Same here (though I refer to it as a continuum. Same thing?)

 

Saying that we'll have to make a choice eventually implies that we can chose who we love, and that we chose to be either gay/straight, i don't think that's a slippery slope you wanna go on either

It also implies that a bisexual being in a relationship with the same gender makes them gay and a bisexual in a relationship with the opposite sex makes them straight. Which is untrue, we are still bisexual when in those relationships.
If not, then you aren't gay/straight when you're single becuase you have no other person to define your 'true' sexuality for you.

Note: I don't respect your opinion at all, but i do however respect you, and hope you don't feel attacked. Also i realize this thread is old as hell, but i mean ever since corina taught us how to use search i decided i'd shift through and found this interesting.

 

I agree with Jarrett. If you're in a monogamous relationship you'll only be having a sexual relationship with a person of one gender, true, but that doesn't mean your attraction to the other will disappear.

 

this is just my experience but I've been with both parties and i think both parties are great and i'm sexually attracted to both, however i've only been able to make a real emotional connection with men. it didnt' really bother me when me and my gfs broke up and i'd bounce back in like days, but when me and my bf broke up it bugged me for months and i was just like destroyed. so sexually i like both but emotionally i lean toward guys (or maybe i just didn't meet the right girl) again just my experience

and as for when someone tries to say i'm confused (due to the fact that i'm a politcal science major with a minor in speech and debate, its very easy for me to get verbal ) i'll just tear into something they do, or believe and just use there argument against them. oh but you said this and now it applies to this but not this lol it's a lot of fun sometimes

 

i thought i was bi b4 i realized i really only prefered guys.

and i dont agree with the statement either. u really cant control who u like. hell, in nature there is this one group of primeapes that r completely bisexual. it was noted that all of them have sexual relations with both sexes. if animals do it, why not humans?

 

I love science sometimes, especially to bring down "negative vibe" arguments like this. I would say that you cannot knock it until you have tried it and seeing as people who are not bi cannot try it they can never knock it!

 

I don't think you're either gay, straight, or lying. I'm gay and I lie all the time!
