bisexual given a bad wrap?

                In the past couple years as a proud Bisexual i have noticed that alot of females have been stating to be bisexual when they really are not just to get attention from males, and now people are assuming that all bisexuals are just "confused"or "not shure".... AND also it makes it way harder and gives false hope to people who are searching for a compainon!

We live in a society where nothing is ever enough!!! Men have insatiable sexual appetites, so do many women. People will have their own opinions, and they will have many about stupid little girls who want to flaunt themselves around for the men. The attraction of one (real) bisexual woman to another and vice versa is not going to erode or lose it's novelty just because it's getting worn out or so to speak, just as the primal attraction between heterosexuals (and in the animal kingdom) has been going on for thousands of years, nothing has spoiled it so far. Do you understand me??? As for the young girls these days, think of them as merely lighting the way for openness, by enticing the curiosity which exists in us and will only drive them (men) to further depths of discovering a real bisexual woman or couple to give him a more in-depth experience than advertized by these girls. So If I were you, I wouldn't worry about whether or not you will find someone out there. Whoever you do find out there, be it man or woman, the most important thing to worry about after that is whether or not you are happy with them.

Being who you are, comforable in more than one way...your focus should be just to be a fulfilled, busy, interesting, enthusiastic, caring and loving person...just be the attractive flower...you don't need a tag...your personality is the real magnet...

I'm in the same boat as you. I thought I was in love with a girl who thought she was in love with me. Let's just say it turned into a huge mess where we both doubted ourselves a lot afterwards. 

Now I have way more friends than I do girl/boy friends because we both wait to see if it's real or not. While (sometimes to my disappointment) the chemistry flops after a while, we still have an intense friendship afterwards, and I think I will hold that more dear than a thousand relationships haha!

Minds meet, match and become life long friends

Hearts meet, match and fall in love, and out of love

Bodies meet, match and grow old

 I understand where you are coming from.  I've had to deal with this as well as a bisexual woman.  I find that my lesbian friends criticize me and tell me I'm wishy-washy and just need to make up my mind and forget men altogether.  But I also get the same response from my straight friends, basically that I need to make up my mind and pick a side.  

 

I think it's mainly because lately, bisexuality has been viewed as the halfway point between hetero and homo.  Basically, when someone thinks they might be gay, then don't feel comfortable going all the way gay in the beginning so they label themselves as bi.  Then, once they're comfortable with who they are, they change their label to gay.  So, now everyone assumes that it's just a stepping stone on the way to becomong who you really are.

 

There's also been this new fad of bi-curious.  I think it's being cause by the openness of the new generation.  The new generation doesn't have big issues with gays like a lot of people from previous generations do, so while someone might not be gay or bi, they might not have a problem making out with their same sex friend for kicks and giggles. Thus bi-curious.  

 

For me personally, I'm just bisexual.  I'm attracted to pretty much everyone as I judge mainly on personality as opposed to physical appearance.  This has been a problem for me lately though, because I chose to marry a man but I'm still bisexual.  I'm still attracted to women but I remain faithful to my husband.  I've felt lately that I've been denying part of who I am.  Basically, I feel like I'm going through withdrawals, haha.  I wish that this whole society of bi-curious, bi-gays, etc. wasn't overshadowing truly bi people.  I've yet to meet another one that is in my stage in life (marriage) so I don't feel like I have anything to go by.  

 

Sorry, for hi-jacking/rambling...
