I identify as queer. Other people say I’m bi because it’s easier for them to grasp. I don’t identify as bi any longer though (been about a decade or so).

I’ve been leaning more towards polysexual rather than just bi, mainly because I’ve suddenly been very attractive to a few ftms lately.. rather cute, but I don’t think I could say I have a straight attraction to them, or gay, because they’re in transition.

I’m what I like to call Sexually Liberated! . I LOVE women, but I’m also pretty fond of penis! My very near and dear friend (who happens to be a lesbian) calls me Bi-Greedy.

King_Pariah's avatar

Bi here. Prefer bicky (combo of bi and picky) since only really attracted to females and passable ftm such as Sarina Valentina and the like.

rebbel's avatar

I have never practiced bisexual sex.
But when I am very horny, I sometimes feel I want tons of pussy and penii.
And boobies.
And chocolate, ice cream, music, sunshine, slaps, petting, beer…...

WillWorkForChocolate's avatar

I’m “bi-curious” but can’t explore that avenue; my husband doesn’t want a threesome or for me to be with a woman. If he were open to that sort of thing, I’d be bi.

Seek's avatar

I rate myself at about a 6.5 on a scale of 1 to 10, ten being “100% straight”.

ANef_is_Enuf's avatar

I don’t think it is the most appropriate label, but I’m attracted to men and women more or less equally. Gender just really isn’t an issue for me when dating.

Blueroses's avatar

I’ve had partners of both sexes, but long-term relationships only with men.

I’m very attracted to drag queens… so I’m a woman who likes men who dress like women.

Not sure what that makes me.

Simone_De_Beauvoir's avatar

@WillWorkForChocolate You can be bi without having ‘bi-sex’.

Bill_Lumbergh's avatar

@WillWorkForChocolate – I will tell you first hand, that a threesome is a slippery slope. (no pun intended) Attractions to the third party could develop, and it could become a dangerous mix if it is not handled in a polite and discreet manner between partners.

Jude's avatar

@WillWorkForChocolate Threesome? You’re not missing out. Trust me.

Bill_Lumbergh's avatar

@Jude – Was it not as exciting and passionate as you imagined? What partners were involved?

beccagolling's avatar

I am very bi. So much that I have some magazines in my drawer! ;D Love this question by the way.

Jude's avatar

Any guys who are bi?

King_Pariah's avatar

@Jude uh, me? Or do I not count? Lol

Jude's avatar

@King_Pariah I didn’t know that you were a dude. :)

<= Raises hand

And don’t be so quick to discount threesomes.

Jude's avatar

@Bill_Lumbergh I was apart of a few in my early 20’s and I was into it because I wasn’t emotionally attached to anyone. I was just out to have fun (get my rocks off). Now, in my late 30’s and very much in love, I have no interest in threesomes. It would be hard for me to see my partner with another woman. That’s just me, though. Perhaps, for others, they’d be cool with it.

YARNLADY's avatar

I did a lot of experimenting around when I was in my 20’s, and even lived in a threesome for about a year. I also lived in a free love commune for awhile.

Blueroses's avatar

has an entirely new appreciation for @YARNLADY

I’ve been involved in 3 and 4-somes. The problem is that, if it continues, one person develops feelings for another outside of the group dynamic. Possessiveness and jealousy ensues. It seems the cycle of attraction to individuals rarely matches up. Example: In a foursome of 2 men and 2 women, both men have primary attraction to one of the girls; that girl only has feelings for the other girl; the other girl has feelings for one of the boys and resents that he wants girl #1. Literally, a cluster fuck.

Damn, am i the only virgin here!

wundayatta's avatar

I’m not sure if I care what people identify as. But I sure do like their stories! Keep ‘em coming! Or is that cumming?

Blueroses's avatar

@Tbag Go to the virgin corner and count your blessings

Tbag's avatar

@BluerosesI think i should :$

ANef_is_Enuf's avatar

This discussion had me thinking for a while back to the days of threesomes and moresomes of my past, and there was never an issue with jealousy or misplaced affection. Sometimes they didn’t work on a purely physical level, which made it not all it’s “cracked up to be,” but there were never emotional explosions over it. It’s worth it, if you choose the right people. Just my two cents.

wundayatta's avatar

@ANef_is_Enuf and @Blueroses Were the people you did this with existing friends, or new people in your lives? In either case, how did you recruit them to join the frolic?

Jude's avatar

@wundayatta Get a room—with yourself

King_Pariah's avatar

@wundayatta sounds like somebody is in desperate need of some… you could go have a *7 some with Palmela Handerson and her five daughters :P

Berserker's avatar

I’m bi, but I don’t have much experience with other women. Still, I never really questioned this, although I did keep it hidden in the past, due to how a lot of people react to this kinda thing. Don’t give a shit now though lol.

linguaphile's avatar

Interesting!

In my 20’s, I would be attracted to both men and women and had a relationship with 3 women during that time. Nowadays, I went through a lot of changes in the past few years and I’m no longer really sure who or what I’m attracted to, what I want from relationships, etc. Re-learning period!

Blueroses's avatar

I think @wundayatta has a valid question. There are different dynamics within existing friendships (with possible unspoken attractions to another in the group) from having a random group encounter.

ANef_is_Enuf's avatar

@Blueroses nailed it. I started to write out a long explanation of my take on this, but then I realized I’m revealing more than I care to… so let’s just stick with ”@Blueroses nailed it.”

rebbel's avatar

@ANef_is_Enuf You mean ”@Blueroses nailed them.” ~

Blueroses's avatar

@rebbel Hey! I’m the girl. I don’t do the nailing

Jude's avatar

@Bluerose girls can do the nailing. No problem.

Blueroses's avatar

Oh. Yes @Jude. What was I thinking?

King_Pariah's avatar

Stupid me, i meant mtf not ftm… I’m blaming the mold.

downtide's avatar

I am bi, and in a long term relationship with a man. On the whole, I think I have a slight preference for women (at the moment – where I am on the scale tends to change over time).

Facade's avatar

I’m not sure. I’m definitely attracted to men, and I want to marry a man one day. But I’m also very attracted to women, but I could do without the vagina. I would have and have had sex with a woman, but I wouldn’t date or marry a woman… What does that make me?

Blueroses's avatar

@Facade I’m saving you a seat over here

King_Pariah's avatar

@Facade bi but definitely closer to straight rather than gay.

WillWorkForChocolate's avatar

I’m so jealous of all of you who’ve had the opportunity to try both sides. I want a woman so bad I can taste it, but I don’t want to hurt my husband. :(

Jude's avatar

mmmmm….

Jude's avatar

@tinyfaery do you have access to a comp?

KatawaGrey's avatar

Sometimes, I am attracted to people who have vaginas, whether those vaginas are natural or constructed. Sometimes, I am attracted to people who have penises whether those penises are natural or constructed. Yes, I believe that external genitalia is all that defines what someone’s sex is. If you got a penis, you’re male, if you got a vagina, you’re female, thus, I consider myself bisexual.

wundayatta's avatar

@Jude and @King_Pariah As @Blueroses suggested, I am curious as to how it happens. There are people who do it with friends. Others do it with… what? Strangers? Acquaintances? How do you find strangers?

I am uninterested in having a threesome, foursome or orgy. But I am curious as to how people organize them. I don’t think I could do sex with someone I didn’t know and know well. So it’s a different world.

I don’t find bisexuality to be much of a mystery, either.

ANef_is_Enuf's avatar

@wundayatta they were always friends and/or acquaintances. In my experiences.

King_Pariah's avatar

@wundayatta acquaintances/fuck buddies and friends of acquaintances/fuck buddies. Never with someone I was in a relationship with… one minor exception but I always feared it would ruin the relationship

augustlan's avatar

In a purely sexual sense, I am attracted to both males and females. I’ve never had (and don’t see myself having) a romantic relationship with a woman, though.

WillWorkForChocolate's avatar

@augustlan You mean all my hopes and dreams of us leaving our husbands for each other are pointless? <cries>

augustlan's avatar

Haha… You could always come visit and, um, experiment.

WillWorkForChocolate's avatar

Well hot damn! Anyone have money for airfare? Please! It’s an emergency!

wundayatta's avatar

@WillWorkForChocolate I’ll spot you a couple hundred. Maybe you could get the rest elsewhere! ;-)

WillWorkForChocolate's avatar

@wundayatta Ooooh, that would be great! Now… what reason do I give my husband for needing to leave for a few days? LOL!

wundayatta's avatar

@WillWorkForChocolate Tell him you need to go make your toenails curl go paint your toenails with an old friend.

AnonymousWoman's avatar

I don’t consider myself bisexual, but I can be quite bi-curious at times.
