Are We Innately Bisexual?
The Homophobes Ain't Gonna like This.
For the next few weeks I felt like I was sorta bisexual or rather on the edge of being a bisexual. I started to find girls attractive! I mean I've always been aware of a pretty girl when I saw one but I'd never thought of how I'd love to kiss her! It even got to point of not minding being in a relationship with girl. Years before this incident I had another dream where I did stuff with.. or rather to a girl but I didn't sorta become bisexual! I didn't become attracted to girls. Why was this incident different then? I mean for a month or so I was basically bisexual- I didn't act upon it though. That would have been interesting.. So was it just a phase? If it was then why does it seem to be starting up now once again?
The first time it happened I tried to figure out why. I started to think it had something to do with my spiritual work- my quest to enlightenment. Perhaps the closer I got the more I realized the true me. Then I began to wonder if everyone is supposed to be bisexual. Why should love know gender? Why should gays fall madly in love with straights and vice versa if there's no chance of them being together? (Seems kinda harsh). Why should love have anything to do with physical characteristics? Are we innately bisexual but due to the way society is in general about homosexuality, we've repressed this side of us from lifetime to lifetime that now most of us are barely aware of it?
Part of achieving enlightenment or ascension as I most like to call it involves achieving a balance between the feminine side and the masculine side. And when that happens what will stop me from becoming a full blown bisexual? Maybe that's what's happening to me right now! Well.. I guess time will tell.
So could we be innately bisexual? What do you think?

Post a CommentI believe that most humans are simply sexual with individual leanings and preferences as simple as a preference for male or female bodies or for red hair or as complex as fetishes and lifestyles.
I definitely think, as a friend of mine put it, that human sexuality is "fluid", meaning it doesn't stick 100% to one thing always in everybody. Know it is a person's choice whether they acknowlege their feelings or act on them, but friendship and fondness and appreciation, given the right circumstances, easily could fall into romantic infatuation. At least that's what I think.
Leonard; All men start out their sexual orientation as Bisexuality. We learn to use a womam's body both for nurishment ,and also in a sexual way, I would call that Bisexuality, wouldn't you?For a man his sexual preferance comes later, not so for some children. They already know their Homosexual preferance. And some of the Bisexuals also form their own sexual preferances, and chose the opposite gender.Female Bisexuality, Perhaps they come under different Emotional and Physical needs that they do not find in a Hetosexual relationship.
I liked this article a lot - I am not bisexual but I do have an appreciation for the female form - I think women are beautiful, sexy, and who knows - if angelina and I were alone...
I am sick and tired of girls saying they are bisexual just for the purpose of pleasing their sleazy boyfriends. If you're going to be bisexual, be so because that's what you are, not because you're trying to make your boyfriend happy. Stop trivializing same-sex relationships, girls.
I too think that we are all bisexual to some extent. Humans are attracted to individuals of both sexes, sometimes this leads to a sexual encounter sometimes it doesn't. Those of us who accept the fact that we can enjoy taking those feelings to the level of sexual satisfaction are "labeled" bisexual. It's all about how far you let yourself go!
Well, Nathan personally I don't know but upon googling I came upon this site: www.bi-nsw.org.au/brochures/htsabsg.pdf You may find it helpful. Also, your community may already have one. Try googling bisexual support group +[the name of your city, or city nearby or state]. You might also want to join an online bisexual support group so try googling that. Good luck :)
how does one start a bisexual group in their community nathan newcomb
LSON625, that was beautiful :) LINDA, it definitely makes sense that being attracted to men shouldn't make you less attracted to women. The X-Y axis concept sounds really interesting. Thanks for the link! :)
Just something to throw into the mix....My sweetie did some research around bisexuality in young women, and one thing she notes is that attractions to women and men are actually independent variables. Instead of putting them on a linear scale (like Kinsey's 0-6), use an X-Y axis instead. If you think about it, being highly attracted to men doesn't necessarily mean you're *less* attracted to women. You can be highly attracted to both, or prefer one over the other, or not feel much attracted to anyone, or really like androgynous people, etc. The model may not capture all the gender identity variations out there, but it certainly opens things up more than a simple 0-6. :) (If you're interested in reading her research, you can find it at www.emilydrennen.org/research_other.shtml.)
