Well, it is a fad now. I know there are many bisexuals in the world, but less than people think. The term pansexual seems more like the term that I consider these true 'bisexuals'.

I have too many 'bisexuals' friends who think being in a relationship with a girl is gross, even though they insist they are okay with making out with them. These are some what slutty people. Pardon my language.

Some girls think it will attract guys and that it's 'hot'. I feel this demeans the term, the people who struggle with being open about their sexuality, and anyone who has been victimized by homophobia, because these, most commonly, girls do not really face this.

Bisexuals who truly honour the term and feel equal attraction to both sexes, I salute you and respect you.

i agree with her

I think bisexual is a sexuality, but mainly it is a fad as well.
A lot of guys think it's really hot when girls are bisexual, so they mess around to get more guys. That's how it is around where I live, atleast.

It took me years to admit to myself that I had feelings for girls as well as guys. When I look back I realize that I've probably had more crushes on girls than guys. I'm still not ready to actually date a girl yet. I'm a bit uncomfortable with my bisexualness at the moment. I find penises revolting, but im still saying im bisexual, darnit.

same here....
but I am not a fad 3nodding and I honestly dont have people in my school that say they are bisexual just to use it for sex and attention.
so I'm sorry people D8
I got nothing to say!

I think on some grounds it's a fad, and others it's an actual sexuality...

Fad: people keep saying this, but I'm going to say it again to make my point. Sorry for the repetion~ but some girls do it just to get attention. There are girls in my school who actually come up to me and ask me to fool around with them becaue I'm outright gay and they are bi.

sexuality: I have several friends who are genuinely bisexual. They've dated both sexes and have genuinely LOVED both sexes. They weren't doing it to get attention from the opposite sex.

If you are genuinely bi, more power to you. If not... cut it out.

Love is love, and love ain't a fad. 3nodding

Both. Alot of girls say that there bi even though they don't get turned on by women. I have to admit I've been doing that lately lol. I used to hate it when I said I was straight and everyone thought I was bi. Now I say I'm bi because I like yuri and it's so fun when I act like a straight girl and they think I'm straight for once in my life.

Love is love, and love ain't a fad. 3nodding

I love this quote but somewhat disagree with it. Think of all the little kiddies in grade school who claim they're in love when they've been "dating" for a week. But I do agree, true love is love, and that won't ever be able to be mimicked or made a fad.

I know a lot of people who say they're bi but have never even held hands with the same sex. I know a lot of people who say they're bi just because they made out with someone drunk, but swear they'd never do it again. It's gotten to a point where people want it for the attention. Which pisses me the hell off.

The easiest way to tell is that true bisexuals (or even homosexuals) don't brag about it. They simply are.

But on the other hand, a few of my close friends (and myself) I consider truly bi. I don't date people because they're attractive, I date them for their personality. Gender has no say in it. My girlfriend and I have been dating for almost four years now, and I love her more than anything. But if we were to break up and I met a guy who was just as sweet as her, I wouldn't hesitate just cuz he's a "he."

It depends on the person I guess.

being bisexual is something your born with. if people only act bi as a fad then they are not bi at all and are in fact insulting the ones that were born bi. i was born bisex myself and cant stand when others try to act bi just cause other famous people are.  

[CrimsonLupe]

bisexuality takes as much love and self discovery as all other forms of sexuality and thus, just as valid.

I think that there are alot of people who are into the fad of being bi who arn't really and others who have mistaken their orientation ( common one is pan thinking they're bi ), however I also believe that there are genuinely bisexual people who's hearts are born open.
