I personally don't support the idea of bisexuality. I won't go too deep into my reasons but I'll drop this:
People that are precise attract me more then people I percieve as indecisive. >_>
I don't hate them but I don't support the idea either. So I'd never date one, only befriend.
Dude, I think your perception's a bit screwed up. It's not an idea. It's a fact and whether you support it or not is like saying WW I and II didn't take place. Being bisexual has nothing to do with being indecisive. Our basic sexual needs and instincts are fueled irrespective of gender.
What a silly example you've used. Also, that sounds a bit primal.
I am 100% gay and I get quite annoyed when I hear people refer to themselves as bisexual. I think that sex and love are two different concepts which is why I don't believe bisexuality really exists. I do think it's possible for a person to have sex with both men and women but when it comes to actually being in love with someone, you're either gay or straight. I find people who see themselves as bisexual are really just deluded and pretentious wankers who think they're more interesting than they really are. They are confusing sex with love and I find them to be a waste of my time.
It's funny how people try and over-analyze others. Still as silly as ever. Oh well, lost cause here. No reason to speak to one another.
Syddy, do you not see this as rather like the evolution thread? Bisexuality exists as a fact of science. Perhaps if I drew upon a familiar analogy you might understand:
Homosexuals suffer from a mental illness that makes them believe they want to have sex and relationships with people of the same sex.
Sound familiar? To claim that bisexuality doesn't exist in fact is to also say that it's abnormal and founded upon denial or mental illness. I wasn't sure it truly existed either until I started reading the peer-reviewed published studies from people with more PhDs than I can count.
You have no idea how the lack of acceptance really harmed me. I had fallen in love with women before yet also discovered that I felt sexual longings for men beyond the adolescent experimentation phase. It was just recently I discovered I could feel something emotional for men as well. It seems odd to me even now but at least I have a bunch of doctors and professors telling me I'm not some Buffalo Bill-type pervert who only thinks he's bisexual.
I was rejected by the straight world when I wasn't in the mood to find girls, and I was rejected by the gay world, the one place I had hoped to find some refuge because hey, I like to stick my cock in other men. Nope. I got called a
liar, a
self-loathing fag, a
bigot,
weak, and
in denial, all because a whole host of gays didn't
believe in bisexuality. It all happened when I was your age too and it was a time when being gay wasn't nearly as socially acceptable as it is today. That universal rejection pushed me to suicide and made me feel as if I was unworthy of love from anyone of either sex.
So be careful what you say because you could find another self-hating-fag-pretending-to-be-bi swinging from a rafter or dead in the garage with car running. The irony is that all the gays who read what happened in the newspaper will cluck their tongues and shake their heads at how sad it is that the straight world still drives gay people to such ends as they then think to themselves, 'Alas! If only straights were more accepting!'
Just one of the things that alienates me from mainstream gay pop culture.
